Study Notes

Matter: Properties and Changes - Energy Changes in Chemical Reactions

  • Chemical reactions involve energy transfers—some release energy, others absorb it.
  • Reactions that release energy don't need energy to start. Energy is released during the reaction.
  • Energy is not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction, it's transferred between chemical bonds and the surroundings.
  • Energy in chemical reactions comes from the chemical bonds holding the reacting atoms together or from the surroundings.
  • Chemical bonds breaking requires energy, while forming bonds releases energy.
  • The arrangement and strength of the bonds in a substance determine its chemical potential energy.
  • Hot packs release energy, causing a temperature increase. This is an exothermic reaction.
  • Cold packs absorb energy, causing a temperature decrease. This is an endothermic reaction.
  • Energy transfers constantly occur between atoms and the environment.
  • The amount of energy released or absorbed during a chemical reaction depends on the type of chemical bonds breaking and forming.
  • The law of conservation of energy states energy can't be created or destroyed, only transferred.
  • Organisms use chemical reactions to provide energy for their cells.
  • Photosynthesis converts sunlight into chemical energy, and cellular respiration releases energy stored in the bonds of molecules like glucose.
  • The concentration of reactants affects the speed of the reaction. Higher concentrations lead to more frequent collisions, speeding up the reaction, and influencing products.
