they located?
OBJECTIVES


To understand why our bodies undergo chemical
reactions.
To list and describe the different macromolecules
found in our bodies.
CHEMICAL REACTIONS


Why do we need chemical reactions?
ii. Chemical Reactions: bonds between atoms
are broken or formed to make different molecules
in the body.
Broken bonds release energy
 Formed bonds  store energy

H2CO3
2. H2CO3  H2O + CO2

LETS WATCH…
DEMO
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT
ENZYMES!
-Specialized proteins that act as “catalyst” (speeds up a
reaction)
- Usually end in “ase”
-Not consumed in the reaction
WHAT DO THEY DO?
HOW DO THEY WORK?

A substrate fits in the active site of an enzyme.

This forms an enzyme substrate complex.

They then break or form bonds.
ENZYMES CONTINUED


Anything that changes the shape of the active
site stops the enzyme from working.
Ways to denature an enzyme:
pH
 Temperature

Poisonous
Would kill our cells if not broken down or
removed right away
Catalase: breaks down hydrogen peroxide into
water and oxygen

What are acid and bases?

What foods do you know of are acidic?

What foods are basic?

Why is it important to know the pH of a
substance?
OBJECTIVES

SWBAT:

Identify substances as an acid, base, or neutral

Draw a pH scale and place substances according to
it’s pH value

Explain what happens during a neutralization
reaction

Explain and describe the difference between various
mixtures.
6.3 SOLUTIONS

Solution = A Liquid mixture in which the solute
dissolved in a solvent.


Solute- Substance that is dissolved in solvent.


Ex. Hot Chocolate (Water and Coco Powder)
Ex. Coco Powder
Solvent- Substance that the solute dissolved in.

Ex. Water

How do things dissolve?
 Polar Covalent Bond: Slight Positive and
negative charges


Ex. H2O
Non-Polar: Do not dissolve in water

Ex. Lipids and Fats
MIXTURES
What is the difference?
MIXTURES

Homogeneous – Has a uniform composition
throughout (a.k.a solutions)


Ex: Air
Heterogenous- components remain distinct.

Ex: Fruit Loops
ACIDS AND BASES




pH- Measure of concentration of hydrogen ions in a
solution
Acids- Release Hydrogen Ions (H+). Tastes Sour.
 Ex: HCl
Bases- Release Hydroxide Ions (OH-). Taste Bitter.
(a.k.a Alkaline)
 Ex: NaOH
Neutral – Number of H+ = Number of OH+
pH Paper: Indicates the number of H+ ions by means of a number
value.
 Litmus Paper:
 Red:
 Stays red in a Acid
 Turns Blue in a Base
 Blue:
 Stays Blue in Base
 Turns Red in Acid
BUFFERS
 Buffers
are mixtures that can react with
acids or bases to keep the pH within a
particular range.

(We want to keep our body fluids at a pH of 6.57.5. Why do you think that is?)
NEUTRALIZATION REACTIONS

When an acid and a base react to form water
and a salt. It’s “Neutralized”
NaOH + HCl ---- H2O + NaCl
- “Salt” positive/negative ion.
Na+
OH-
H+
