Metabolism is all chemical reactions that occur in organisms, including those that occur at the cellular level.

<h2> Further Explanation </h2>

The three main goals of metabolism are:

  • Converting food into energy to run cellular processes.
  • Conversion of food / fuel into a constituent of proteins, lipids, nucleic acids and some carbohydrates.
  • Nitrogen waste disposal. The reaction catalyzed by this enzyme allows the organism to grow and multiply, maintain its structure, and respond to its environment.

In general, metabolism has two directional trajectories for organic chemical reactions:

catabolism, which is a reaction that breaks down molecules of organic compounds, such as the breakdown of glucose into pyruvate by cellular respiration;

anabolism, which is a reaction that assembles (synthesis) organic compounds such as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic acids from certain molecules.

Catabolism is a series of metabolic processes that break down large molecules, including breaking down and oxidizing food molecules. The purpose of catabolic reactions is to provide the energy and components needed by anabolic reactions in order to build molecules.

Anabolism is a metabolic pathway that arranges several simple organic compounds into chemical compounds or complex molecules. This process requires outside energy. The energy used in this reaction can be either light energy or chemical energy. The energy, then used to bind these simple compounds into more complex compounds. So, in this process the required energy is not lost, but stored in the form of chemical bonds in the complex compounds formed.

How fast will benzene solidify
White raven [17]

Explanation:

What benzene is

Benzene is a chemical that is a colorless or light yellow liquid at room temperature. It has a sweet odor and is highly flammable.

Benzene evaporates into the air very quickly. Its vapor is heavier than air and may sink into low-lying areas.

Benzene dissolves only slightly in water and will float on top of water.

When the fuel mixture contained in a 1.49 l tank, stored at 750 mmhg and 298 k, undergoes complete combustion, how much heat is
Ket [755]
Get to know first how many moles in the gas:n = pV/RT= (1.013*10^5*750/760) Pa *1.49*10^-3 m^3/(8.314 J/(molK)*298) n = 0.0601 moles. 
The combustion energies  are  889 kJ/mol (methane) and 2 220 kJ (propane) x = moles methane, y = moles propane 
x*889 + y*2220 = 778 x + y = 0.0601----------- x = 0.267784 moles = 0.267784*100/0.0601 = 44.6 % y = 0.243216 moles = 0.243216*100/0.0601 = 55.4 %

Which of these terms might be a chemical compound? iron floride helium neon?
liubo4ka [24]
Iron Fluoride 

A chemical compound is a substance composed of atoms from two or more (different) elements. These compounds are formed by the creation of chemical bonds between the atoms of the different elements. 

Helium and Neon are both elements, and in particular, they belong to a group of chemical elements called noble gases. Being noble gases, they are very stable and do not react easily. 

Iron fluoride is a chemical compound consisting of the metal, iron, and the nonmetal, fluorine. When a metal and a nonmetal react to form a compound, they form ionic bonds to hold together the atoms of the different elements comprising the compound.
