True or false?

During a chemical reaction no atoms are created from energy or are converted into energy.

Expert Solution

True:

Matter (atom) cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction; it is rearranged. The number of each different elements remains the same. Yet, after the reaction, an element may link to one element that is different from the one it links to before the reaction. That is, during the process of chemical reaction, some old bonds are broken and some new bonds are created. A chemical reaction creates compounds different from reactants.

Again;

A chemical reaction does not create or destroy matter (or atom), it simply moves electrons from one atom to another, but does not change the nucleus of the atoms. The total mass of the matter remains a constant in any chemical change. The total mass of the matter can change during a nuclear reaction, the mass loss can convert into energy, which is called the nuclear power. So we can say that a nuclear reaction creates/destroys matter, if we define matter only as its mass.

In chemical reactions, heat is converted into chemical energy (the potential energy stored in chemical bonds) or vice versa. Bond energy is the energy required to break one mole of the bond in the gas phase. Since it takes energy to break a bond, bond energies are always positive. Conversely, energy is released when bonds are formed. Thus, the enthalpy change for a reaction can be approximated from ΔHrxn=∑(ΔHbreaking)+∑(ΔHforming) where H represents bond energies for the breaking (positive bond energy)...

True or False? Enzymes are totally consumed in a chemical reaction. Glucose is a universal food molecule for most organisms. Anabolic reactions release energy. Endomthermic reactions release energy. Catabolic reactions result in the formation of complex molecules. Starch is used as a building block of complex molecules by microbes. Phospholipids are a major food molecule to produce energy. An enzyme accelerates the chemical transformation of specific substrates.
