What happens to energy during a chemical reaction?
During a chemical reaction, energy gets used to break the existing bonds in order to create new bonds.
What bonds do helicase and polymerase enzymes break?
I would say Hydrogen Bond.
Can an increase in temperature to increase the movement of atoms break hydrogen bonds and other types of stabilizing attractions?
Yes, enough energy will eventually be able to break intermolecular attractions
Do all chemical bonds hold potential energy?
No. some bonds actually require sustained energy to break apart (such as water). This is displayed in the use of a Hoffman apparatus, which requires an electrical current to split water into Hydrogen and Oxygen.
When do reactions that release energy happen?
The release of energy (exothermic reaction) happens when the energy release by forming the products of the reaction is greater than the energy required to break the bonds of the reactants.
What happens when chemical bonds break and bonds form?
It takes energy to break a bond. then the atoms rearrange and can form new bonds releasing energy.
When water evaporates do the covalent bonds between O atoms and H atoms break or do the hydrogen bonds break and why?
The hydrogen bonds break.
Does water have a weak hydrogen bond?
Hydrogen bonds form between water molecules and are relatively weak because there is actually no transferring or sharing of electrons. It would takes much less energy to break hydrogen bonds between water molecules than it does to break the molecules into oxygen and hydrogen.
What happens to energy during a chemical reaction?
During a chemical reaction, energy gets used to break the existing bonds in order to create new bonds.
What happens to the energy during a phase change?
When energy is added during a phase change the energy is used to break molecular bonds.
Why does hydrogen burns?
Hydrogen burns because the energy released from the H-O bonds it forms with water is greater than the energy required to break the H-H and O=O bonds in molecular oxygen and hydrogen. 2 H2 + O2 ---> 2 H2O
What happens If all of the hydrogen bonds in a DNA molecule were to break?
The double helix would be torn into two single strands.
What happens to particle bonds as you increase temperature?
When we increase temperature it produce kinetic energy this will loose up the bonds. so the bonds will break up and it will move.
Which bonds break?
All bonds break when enough energy is applied
What happens to the energy added during the phase change?
When energy is added during a phase change the energy is used to break molecular bonds.
How does water store energy?
Water, like any other molecule stores energy in bonds. Water is made of 2 carbon to hydrogen bonds, which require energy to break but will release energy if they reform in a manner requiring less energy or strain.
What happens to atoms during chemical changes?
Chemical changes involve breaking and forming of bonds between atoms. Chemical energy is required to break bonds. The formation of new bonds releases energy.
