Document Summary

Energy and energy flow: capacity to do work, two types, kinetic: Energy of motion: heat, light, mechanical, potential: Stored energy (1) concentration gradients and chemical bonds. Thermodynamics: energy transformations, two laws, first law, conservation law. Energy cannot be created or destroyed, can only change from one form to another, total amount in universe remains constant: second law, no transformation is 100% efficient. Some lost heat, usable energy is decreasing, entropy is increasing. Free energy (usable energy): gibbs (g) free energy, g = ability to do work, equation: g=h-ts, h=enthalpy (in molecule"s chemical bonds) S=entropy: change in g, - g = exergonic (products < fe than products) Energy is released and spontaneous: + g = endergonic (products > fe than products) Atp: a nucleotide, has a triphosphate group with high energy bonds, amp core (ribose and adenine, atp cycle, going from adp+pi to atp+h2o. Atp synthesis is endergonic (requires energy: going from atp+h2o to adp+pi.
