Define Kinetic energy and Potential energy.
Define potential energy and kinetic energy and provide two specific examples of each. Explain how one form of energy can be converted into another. Will some energy be lost during this conversion? If so, what form will it take?
While walking to biochemistry class with a friend, you see the following graffiti spray painted on the wall of the science building: “When a system is in equilibrium, the Gibbs free energy is maximum.” You are disgusted, not only at the vandalism, but at the ignorance of the vandal. Your friend asks you to explain.

There may be more than one correct answer, select all that apply. The change in energy in ground state to the transition state represents the Gibbs Free Energy If the reaction is reversible, the TS will only progress forward to form products The TS occupies a trough The TS is associated with the highest energy The TS occupies the highest peakarrow_forwardThe molecule can absorb heat from the environment without changing its chemical structure, as will occur when there is a local temperature increase. The molecule will have a higher energy. If the increase in energy is above KT (i.e., the entire environment has not increased its temperature), the molecule will come to thermal equilibrium with the environment around it, and return to its original energy state. Which one of the following is example to this? Select one: a. The absorbance of radiant energy by Melanin pigment in the skin. b. Conversion of 11-cis form of retinal to the all-trans form of retinal upon exposure to light, with a maximum absorbance at 500 nm. c. Thymine-thymine and thymine-cytosine pyrimidine bridges formation upon exposure of DNA to UV-B radiation. d. The translucent to opaque conversion of egg whites when cooked by increasing the temperature.arrow_forward
