GENERIC NAME: enalapril. DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Enalapril is a drug that is used for treating high blood pressure. It is in a class of drugs called angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. ACE is an enzyme in the body that causes the formation of angiotensin II.
RECOMMENDED LESSONS: Chemical energy. Chemical Energy is energy stored in the bonds of chemical compounds (atoms and molecules). It is released in a chemical reaction, often producing heat as a by product (exothermic reaction) . Batteries, biomass, petroleum, natural gas, and coal are examples of stored chemical energy.
1 The bond energy, Eb, which is the energy stored in the various covalent bonds making up the molecule. 2  Kinetic energy of translation, Et, which is the kinetic energy, mv2 that a molecule possesses by virtue of its mass, m, and velocity, v. 3  Vibrational energy, Ev.ntroduction. Molecules have energy, and when they react, changes in the total energy of the reacting molecules take place. Some of this energy is available to do work, either directly or indirectly. 1  Fossil fuels (coal, petroleum) can be burnt, generating heat, which in turn, provides steam used to generate electricity.
