Question	Answer
Energy	The capacity to do work
Potential Energy	energy stored by matter due to its position
Kinetic Energy	energy associated with MATTER IN MOTION KEMM
Chemical Energy	form of potential energy stored in the bonds of compounds, molecules
Activation Energy	nrj. required to disrupt the electrons to get the molecules to interact
Catalysts	Enzymes that speed up reactions by LOWERING THE ACTIVATION ENERGY
Inorganic Compounds	Lack Carbon Are Structurally Simple Include water, salts, acids and bases
Organic Compounds	contain carbon, usually hydrogen and are formed by covalent bonds *include carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids and ATP
Monomers	small molecules that join with polymers to build ORGANIC COMPOUNDS
Water	* is an inorganic compound has a HIGH HEAT CAPACITY HIGH HEAT OF VAPORIZATION POLAR SOLVENT FORMED DURING DEHYDRATION SYNTHESIS PROVIDES A CUSHIONING AND LUBRICATING EFFECT
Buffer System	minimize changes in pH of solutions by converting strong acids or bases into WEAK acids or bases (Strong to Weak.. Analogy: An illness)
