A combustion reaction occurs when a substance usually containing carbon reacts with what to produce energy in the form of heat and light?
oxygen
Is energy stored in the chemical bonds of the molecules in the plant?
Chemical energy is a bit more complicated than that. If a substance "has chemical energy", that means that energy can be gained by rearranging that substance with other atoms or molecules - often the oxygen (O2) form the air. Thus, the energy is neither truly stored in the substance you are considering, nor in the oxygen - but in their relationship.
What energy is converted to kinetic energy when a fossil fuel is burned?
The chemical energy was stored in the fossil fuel millions of years ago when the Sun's energy was used in photosynthesis to separate carbon and oxygen atoms from atmospheric carbon dioxide. The carbon was used by the plants to form tissues while the oxygen was released into the air. It's this energy that is released by the formation of carbon-oxygen atomic bonds as carbon dioxide is generated when the fuel is burned.
How do Echinoderms get their energy?
Echinoderms get their food and oxygen for energy. They ues tube feet to obtain oxygen from the water.
What does a cell produce or give off when it makes energy?
Cells can't MAKE energy, they can only convert it from one form to another. Plant cells use sunlight to convert H2O and CO2 into sugar and oxygen. Animal cells convert sugar and oxygen into CO2 and H2O.
Is oxygen a form of chemical energy?
No, oxygen is an element. Chemical energy is usually the thing that hooks elements into compounds.
Does oxygen give us energy?
Yes, but not directly. Your mitochondria must "burn" hydrogen and oxygen to form water AND transfer that energy to ADP in order to form ATP, That energy you can use.
Were does energy for a cell come from?
Most cellular energy comes in the form of ATP which requires oxygen.
The more oxygen the muscles receive the more energy you have true or false?
False, while you need oxygen to release the energy in muscles (to move), once there is enough oxygen, adding more does not create more energy. The energy comes form the food you eat, not the oxygen used to burn it.
When hydrogen burns in oxygen to form water energy is what?
Energy is given off, hence the heat and fire.
How are photsynthesis and cellular respiration opposite in terms of oxygen?
In photosynthesis, you're essentially taking CO2 and energy to make oxygen. In cellular respiration, you're taking oxygen to form CO2 and energy.
What happens when two oxygen molecules combine to form a molecule of oxygen?
Chemical bonds are formed and energy is released.
A combustion reaction occurs when a substance, usually containing carbon reacts with to produce energy in the form of heat and light?
oxygen
How does oxygen combine with hydrogen to form water?
If you add thermal energy to a mixture of oxygen gas and hydrogen gas, water will be produced in the form of water vapor.
What is produced when cells use oxygen to release energy from sugar?
they form children
How do anerobes manage to produce energy without oxygen?
Glycolysis. This process releases energy (in the form of ATP) without requiring oxygen. It isn't, however, very efficient.
What does respiration provide?
Cellular respiration is the method by which cells use glucose and oxygen to form energy in the form of ATP
