Chemical Processes
Chemical processes are the series of reactions and transformations that substances undergo to change into different substances. These processes can involve breaking bonds between atoms, rearranging them, or forming new bonds. Examples include combustion (like burning wood), photosynthesis (how plants convert sunlight into energy), and digestion (how our bodies break down food). Each process is governed by principles of chemistry, involving reactants, products, and often energy changes. Understanding these processes helps us harness them for useful purposes, such as creating medicines, fuels, and materials important for everyday life.
