Energy and Thermodynamics
Laws of thermodynamics describe the constraints on

The laws of thermodynamics are
sometimes stated as:
Explain.

Laws of Thermodynamics
First law:
the total amount of energy (+ matter) in a closed system remains constant
http://www.auburn.edu/academic/classes/biol/1020/bowling/

Laws of Thermodynamics
First law:
the total amount of energy (+ matter) in a closed system remains constant
also called conservation of energy

note:
the universe is a closed system
living things are open systems

Laws of Thermodynamics
Second law: in every energy conversion
some energy is converted to heat energy
heat energy is lost to the surroundings
heat energy cannot be used for work

.
Laws of Thermodynamics
Second law: in every energy conversion
some energy is converted to heat energy
heat energy is lost to the surroundings
heat energy cannot be used for work
energy converted to heat in the surroundings
increases entropy (spreading of energy)

Second law: in every energy conversion
some energy is converted to heat energy
heat energy is lost to the surroundings
heat energy cannot be used for work
energy converted to heat in the surroundings
increases entropy (spreading of energy)
thus, this law can also be stated as:
Every energy conversion increases the entropy
of the universe.

Laws of Thermodynamics Second law:
Upshot: no energy conversion is 100% efficient
Just to maintain their current state, organisms must get a constant influx of energy because of energy lost in conversions

Differentiate between:
anabolism and catabolism
exergonic and endergonic reactions
http://www.auburn.edu/academic/classes/biol/1020/bowling/
.
Metabolism: anabolism + catabolism
metabolism divided into
anabolism (anabolic reactions)
anabolic reactions are processes that build complex molecules from simpler ones

metabolism divided into
anabolism (anabolic reactions)
anabolic reactions are processes that build complex molecules from simpler ones
catabolism (catabolic reactions)
catabolic reactions are processes the break down complex molecules into simpler ones

Chemical Reactions and Free Energy
Chemical reactions involve
changes in chemical bonds
http://www.auburn.edu/academic/classes/biol/1020/bowling/
.
Chemical Reactions and Free Energy
Chemical reactions involve
changes in chemical bonds
changes in substance concentrations
http://www.auburn.edu/academic/classes/biol/1020/bowling/
.
Chemical Reactions and Free Energy
Chemical reactions involve
changes in chemical bonds
changes in substance concentrations
changes in free energy
free energy = energy available to do work in a chemical reaction (such as: create a chemical bond)
free energy changes depend on bond energies and concentrations of reactants and products
bond energy = energy required to break a bond; value depends on the bond

.
Chemical Reactions and Free Energy
left undisturbed, reactions will reach dynamic equilibrium when the relative concentrations of reactants and products is correct
forward and reverse reaction rates are equal; concentrations remain constant

left undisturbed, reactions will reach dynamic equilibrium when the relative concentrations of reactants and products is correct
forward and reverse reaction rates are equal; concentrations remain constant
cells manipulate relative concentrations in many ways so that equilibrium is rare

Chemical Reactions and Free Energy
exergonic reactions the products have less free
energy than reactants
the difference in energy is released and is available to do
work
http://www.auburn.edu/academic/classes/biol/1020/bowling/
.
Chemical Reactions and Free Energy exergonic reactions the products have less free energy than reactants
the difference in energy is released and is available to do work
exergonic reactions are thermodynamically favored; thus, they are spontaneous, but not necessarily fast (more on activation energy later)

.
Chemical Reactions and Free Energy
catabolic reactions are usually exergonic
ATP + H2O ADP + Pi is highly exergonic
http://www.auburn.edu/academic/classes/biol/1020/bowling/
.
Chemical Reactions and Free Energy
endergonic reactions the products have
more free energy than the reactants
the difference in free energy must be supplied
(stored in chemical bonds)
