• Most biological buffers consist of a pair of
molecules, one an acid and one a base
21
Chemical reactions
• Chemical reactions involve the formation or
breaking of chemical bonds
• Atoms shift from one molecule to another
without any change in number or identity of
atoms
• Reactants = original molecules
• Products = molecules resulting from reaction
6H2O + 6CO2
reactants
→
C6H12O6 + 6O2
products
22
• Extent of chemical reaction influenced by
1. Temperature
2. Concentration of reactants and products
3. Catalysts
• Many reactions are reversible
