Chemical Reactions for Living Systems (Supplement)
There are literally billions of chemical reactions that take place within the human body on a consistent basis. Each is
necessary for proper functioning inside and outside of cells. If only a few fail to perform their tasks, then the organism
will cease to exist. It is your job to make sure that failure is not an option. Check each chemical reaction below and
provide coefficients where they are needed. If a coefficient is not needed or if the coefficient is one, then leave the box
blank
Cellular Respiration
During cellular respiration, mitochondria use oxygen and glucose in order to make carbon dioxide and water as a by-
product and ATP as a source of cellular energy. Can you explain the significance of inhaling oxygen and exhaling carbon
dioxide during respiration?

Antacid Relief
The acid in your stomach is hydrochloric acid which has a pH of 1-3. When stomach acid exists in excess or causes
heartburn in your esophagus, then the acid may be balanced by the bases contained in Tums, Rolaids, Pepto Bismol and
other antacids. The active ingredient in some antacids is calcium carbonate as shown below.

Hemoglobin Binding Site
CO₂
Hemoglobin is the iron-containing protein in the blood which transports oxygen from the alveoli in the lungs to the cells
and picks up carbon dioxide from the cells and carries it to the lungs to be exhaled. When oxygen binds to hemoglobin,
it is written as Hb +0,→HbO, where Hb stands for hemoglobin. However, when carbon dioxide binds to a different site
on hemoglobin, carbon dioxide reacts with water to make carbonic acid which then decomposes into bicarbonate and
protons.

Hydrogen Peroxide: An Effective Antiseptic?
Hydrogen peroxide is often used to clean cuts or scrapes. When applied, it bubbles and burns. Why? Hydrogen
peroxide, as sold in stores, is actually mostly water with a small percentage being hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). But when it
comes into contact with the catalase enzyme in human tissue, hydrogen peroxide is broken down into water and
oxygen.

Definition Definition Transformation of a chemical species into another chemical species. A chemical reaction consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new ones by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.
