Types of Chemical Reactions: Exchange and Reversible

En las reacciones de intercambio, dos o más reactivos intercambian sus átomos para formar productos.
Estas reacciones implican tanto la descomposición (ruptura de enlaces en los reactivos) como la síntesis (formación de nuevos enlaces para crear productos).
Por ejemplo, cuando una molécula de glucosa reacciona con el ATP, un grupo fosfato del ATP se transfiere a la glucosa, produciendo ADP y glucosa 6-fosfato.
La mayoría de las reacciones químicas son reversibles; los productos pueden reaccionar para formar los reactivos originales.
Por ejemplo, en la sangre, el dióxido de carbono y el agua reaccionan para formar iones de bicarbonato e hidrógeno en una reacción reversible.
Aquí, la reacción directa, que forma los productos, y la reacción inversa, que convierte los productos de nuevo en reactivos, pueden alcanzar un estado de equilibrio sin cambios netos en las cantidades de reactivos y productos.
En este caso, el equilibrio entre las dos reacciones ayuda a mantener el pH de la sangre.

tipos de reacciones químicas: intercambio y reversible

Una reacción de intercambio es una reacción química en la cual ocurren tanto la síntesis como la descomposición, se forman y rompen enlaces químicos, y se absorbe, almacena y libera energía química.

Un tipo especial de reacción de intercambio es la reacción de oxidación-reducción, o reacción redox. Estas reacciones involucran la transferencia de electrones de un compuesto a otro. Los electrones en estas reacciones comúnmente provienen de átomos de hidrógeno, los cuales consisten en un electrón y un protón. Una molécula libera un átomo de hidrógeno en forma de un ion de hidrógeno (H+) y un electrón, rompiendo la molécula en partes más pequeñas. La pérdida de un electrón (oxidación) libera una pequeña cantidad de energía; tanto el electrón como la energía son luego transferidos a otra molécula en el proceso de reducción o la ganancia de un electrón. Estas dos reacciones siempre ocurren juntas, y cuando un electrón es transferido entre moléculas, el donante se oxida, y el receptor se reduce. Las reacciones de oxidación-reducción a menudo ocurren en una serie de manera que una molécula que es reducida es posteriormente oxidada, trasladando no solo el electrón que acaba de recibir, sino también la energía que recibió.

En teoría, cualquier reacción química puede ocurrir en cualquier dirección bajo las condiciones adecuadas. En las reacciones reversibles, los reactivos se convierten en productos, pero cuando la concentración del producto supera un cierto umbral (característico de la reacción en particular), algunos de estos productos se convierten nuevamente en reactivos. En este punto, las designaciones de producto y reactivo se invierten. Este proceso de ida y vuelta continúa hasta que se alcanza un equilibrio relativo entre reactivos y productos, estado conocido como equilibrio. Una ecuación química con una flecha de doble cabeza apuntando hacia los reactivos y los productos a menudo denota estas situaciones de reacción reversible.

Por ejemplo, en la sangre humana, los iones de hidrógeno (H+) se unen a los iones bicarbonato (HCO3-), formando un estado de equilibrio con el ácido carbónico (H2CO3).

Sin embargo, las reacciones biológicas rara vez alcanzan el equilibrio porque las concentraciones de los reactivos o productos, o ambos, están cambiando constantemente, a menudo con el producto de una reacción siendo un reactivo para otra. Si agregamos ácido carbónico a este sistema, parte de él se convertiría en bicarbonato e iones de hidrógeno. Cuando hay un exceso de iones de hidrógeno en la sangre, la formación de ácido carbónico será la dirección principal de la reacción.

electron transfer and chemical equilibrium

Exchange reactions and reversible reactions are two important ideas in chemistry. In an exchange reaction, synthesis and decomposition happen at the same time. Chemical bonds are both formed and broken. These reactions can absorb chemical energy, store it, and release it.

A special type of exchange reaction is the oxidation-reduction reaction, or redox reaction. In a redox reaction, electrons move from one compound to another. The electrons often come from hydrogen atoms, which contain one electron and one proton. When a molecule gives up a hydrogen atom as a hydrogen ion, H+, and an electron, it breaks into smaller parts.

Oxidation is the loss of an electron. It releases a small amount of energy. That electron and energy then move to another molecule during reduction, which is the gain of an electron. Oxidation and reduction always happen together. When the electron moves, the donor is oxidized and the recipient is reduced. These reactions often happen in a chain, so a molecule that is reduced can later be oxidized and pass on the electron and the energy it received.

Any chemical reaction can move in either direction under the right conditions. In a reversible reaction, reactants form products, but if the product concentration becomes high enough, some products change back into reactants. The reaction then reaches a balance between the two sides called equilibrium. A double-headed arrow in a chemical equation often shows this kind of reaction.

A common example is the balance in human blood between hydrogen ions, H+, and bicarbonate ions, HCO3-, which form carbonic acid, H2CO3. Biological reactions usually do not reach equilibrium because the concentrations keep changing. Often, one reaction's product becomes a reactant in another reaction. If carbonic acid is added to this system, some of it changes back into bicarbonate and hydrogen ions. When there are excess hydrogen ions in the blood, forming carbonic acid becomes the main direction of the reaction.

what is matter?

Matter, Mass, and Weight Basics

Matter is the substance that makes up the universe, from a grain of sand to a star. Scientists define matter as anything that occupies space and has mass. Mass is the amount of matter in an object, while weight depends on gravity. Mass stays the same whether an object is on Earth or in the zero-gravity environment of outer space. Weight changes when gravity changes. An object weighs more where gravity is stronger and less where gravity is weaker. A piece of cheese that weighs a pound on Earth...

the periodic table and organismal elements

the-periodic-table-and-organismal-elements

Organismal Elements in the Periodic Table

The periodic table helps identify the elements that make up living organisms. Biology groups these as organismal elements because they are the chemical building blocks of life. These elements are found in different amounts in the body. Some are present in large quantities, while others are needed only in small amounts. The video connects the periodic table to the elements that organisms actually use. Understanding organismal elements helps students link chemistry to biology. It shows how...

atomic structure

From Atomos to the Modern Atom

Atoms are the tiny building blocks of matter, and ideas about them go back to the Greek philosopher Democritus. He suggested that everything on Earth is made of atomos, a Greek word meaning "indivisible." That idea later led to the modern word atom. In the 19th century, John Dalton developed an atomic theory that is still largely correct today. He proposed five key ideas. All matter is made of tiny particles called atoms. Atoms of the same element are alike, and atoms of different elements are...

chemical symbols

Chemical Symbols and Element Names

Chemical symbols are short abbreviations that stand for an element or a single atom of that element. Mercury, for example, has the symbol Hg. The same symbol can point to one atom of mercury in the microscopic domain or to a sample labeled as many atoms of mercury in the macroscopic domain. Many symbols come from the element’s common name. Others are shortened from a name in another language. Most chemical symbols use one or two letters. For a few elements with atomic numbers above 112,...

atomic number and mass number

Atomic Identity, Mass, and Isotopes

Atomic identity depends on the number of protons in the nucleus, and mass depends on protons and neutrons together. The number of protons is the atomic number, or Z. It defines the element. For example, any atom with six protons is carbon, no matter how many neutrons or electrons it has. In a neutral atom, the number of protons equals the number of electrons. Because of that, the atomic number also tells you the number of electrons in the atom. The total number of protons and neutrons is...

atomic weight

Atomic Mass and Mole Calculations

Atomic mass and mole calculations help explain how much matter is in atoms and compounds. Protons and neutrons have about the same mass, about 1.67 × 10 -24 grams. Scientists define that mass as one atomic mass unit, or amu, also called one Dalton. Electrons are much lighter than protons. They weigh only 9.11 × 10 -28 grams, or about 1/1800 of an atomic mass unit. Because of that small mass, electrons do not add much to an element’s overall atomic mass. When chemists calculate atomic mass,...

isotopes and radioisotopes

Radioisotopes in Medicine and Imaging

Radioisotopes are unstable isotopes that can be used to study the body and treat disease. An isotope is an atom of the same element that has a different mass because it contains a different number of neutrons. It still has the same number of protons, so it remains chemically identical. English chemist Frederick Soddy explained this idea in the early 1900s and later received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1921. Some isotopes have more neutrons than usual and are called heavy isotopes. These...

electron behavior

Electron Shells and Discovery

Electrons are negatively charged subatomic particles that stay near the positively charged nucleus of an atom. They occupy spaces linked to energy levels called shells. They are also arranged into subshells and orbitals within each shell. An electron’s shell shows its general energy level. Electrons closer to the nucleus have less energy, while electrons farther away have more energy. The outer shells have more space, so they can hold more electrons than the inner shells. Subshells describe...

introduction to chemical bonds

How Atoms Bond to Reach Stability

Atoms bond to become more stable, and their outermost electrons play the biggest role in that process. The inner electron shell can hold two electrons. The next two shells can each hold eight electrons. This is called the octet rule. It states that, except for the innermost shell, atoms are most stable when their valence shell, or outer shell, has eight electrons. When atoms do not have enough electrons to fill that outer shell, they form chemical bonds with other atoms. A chemical bond is the...

ionic bonds

Ionic Bonds and Charge Transfer

Ionic bonds form when atoms transfer electrons and become charged particles. A positive ion and a negative ion attract each other because opposite charges pull together. This type of bonding helps explain how some substances are held together. In many cases, an atom loses one or more electrons, while another atom gains them. The atom that loses electrons becomes a cation, which is a positively charged ion. The atom that gains electrons becomes an anion, which is a negatively charged ion. The...

covalent bonds

Polar and Nonpolar Covalent Bonds

Covalent bonds form when atoms share electrons to fill their valence shells. The way those shared electrons are pulled depends on electronegativity, which is an atom's tendency to attract electrons in a bond. That difference also helps explain why some molecules are polar and others are nonpolar. Atoms with similar electronegativities form nonpolar covalent bonds. In these bonds, electrons are shared equally, so there is no charge across the molecule. When two atoms have different...

hydrogen bonds

Hydrogen Bonding and DNA Stability

Hydrogen bonding helps explain why some molecules stick together more strongly than others. A hydrogen bond forms when a weakly positive hydrogen atom, already bonded to an electronegative atom, is attracted to another electronegative atom on a nearby polar molecule. Common examples include water, hydrogen fluoride, and ammonia. This attraction happens because hydrogen has a much lower electronegativity than atoms such as fluorine, oxygen, and nitrogen. The electronegativity difference, along...

ions, molecules, and compounds

Atomic Charges, Bonds, and Compounds

Atoms can gain or lose electrons during chemical reactions and become ions. An ion is an atom with an electrical charge. This charge is positive or negative, and it often helps the atom reach a full valence shell. Some atoms are more likely to donate electrons, while others are more likely to accept them. Potassium is one example. It has atomic number 19 and one electron in its valence shell, so it is likely to donate that electron and become a slightly positive ion called a cation. Fluorine...

states of matter

Solids, Liquids, Gases, and Plasma

Solids, liquids, gases, and plasma are the main forms of matter described here. Solids are rigid and keep a definite shape. Liquids flow and take the shape of their container, although gravity gives the surface a flat or slightly curved top. Solids and liquids also have volumes that stay nearly the same even when pressure changes. Gases behave differently from solids and liquids. A gas takes both the shape and the volume of its container. In matter with this behavior, the particles are far...

colloids and suspensions

Suspensions, Sedimentation, and Colloids

Suspensions and colloids are two common kinds of mixtures seen in everyday life. Mud and water, flour and water, and tempera paint are suspensions. These mixtures are heterogeneous, which means their particles are not spread out evenly. The particles are relatively large and can be seen with the naked eye or a magnifying glass. Suspension particles make mixtures cloudy, and they settle out after mixing. The settling of particles in a suspension is called sedimentation. A blood test can measure...

introduction to chemical reactions

Chemical Reaction Basics and Equilibrium

Chemical reactions start with reactants and end with products. Reactants are the substances that enter a reaction, and products are the new substances that form. For example, sodium and chloride ions are the reactants in the formation of table salt. Chemical reactions follow the law of conservation of mass. Matter is not created or destroyed during the reaction. That means the atoms and elements in the reactants are still present in the products, and nothing new appears in the products that...

types of chemical reactions: anabolic and catabolic

types-of-chemical-reactions-anabolic-and-catabolic

Anabolism, Catabolism, and ATP Use

Anabolism and catabolism are the two main kinds of metabolic reactions in the body. Metabolism is the total set of anabolic and catabolic reactions that keep life running. These reactions follow the first law of thermodynamics, which says energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only change form. Anabolism builds larger, more complex molecules from smaller ones. These anabolic, or biosynthesis, reactions need energy in the form of ATP. They join monosaccharides into polysaccharides, fatty...

Chemical bonds are both formed and broken. These reactions can absorb chemical energy, store it, and release it.

The electrons often come from hydrogen atoms, which contain one...

energy transfer in chemical reactions

Chemical Energy and Reaction Types

Chemical reactions depend on energy transfer, chemical bonds, and the way matter collides. A reaction needs enough energy for particles to meet with the right force and precision. That energy can break old bonds and help form new ones. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. A person lifting a brick uses kinetic energy to move the brick into place on a wall. Once the wall is built, it stores potential energy, which is the energy of position or structure. If the wall falls, that stored energy...

factors influencing the rate of chemical reactions

factors-influencing-the-rate-of-chemical-reactions

Chemical Reaction Rates and Catalysts

Chemical reaction rates depend on how often particles collide and whether those collisions have enough energy to start a reaction. That starting energy is called activation energy. Factors that affect reaction rate either lower that energy or make successful collisions more likely. Concentration and pressure can speed reactions up because they put more particles in the same space. When more particles are present, they are more likely to bump into one another. Chemists can also increase...

acids, bases and neutralization reactions

How pH Affects Cells and Digestion

Acids, bases, and pH help control how cells and body systems work. In biology, pH can strongly affect enzymes, proteins, and nucleic acids. Enzymes work best within a certain pH range, and pH changes can alter their structure or denature them, which changes how they function. Acids release hydrogen ions, or H+, in solution. A hydrogen ion is a proton, so it is very reactive in chemical reactions. Strong acids release all of their H+ in water and ionize completely. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is a...
