22
Q

Define matter and it’s 3 forms

A

Anything that takes up space
-Solid, liquid, gas

23
Q

What are the 3 subatomic particles

A

Protons, neutrons, electrons

24
Q

How are the elements arranged in the periodic table

A

They are listing in order of increasing atomic number

25
Q

Structure of an atom

A

Neutrons and Protons inside of the nucleus
Electrons are in the orbit

26
Q

How are elements organized in the period table based on valence electrons ?

A

The number of valence electrons is the same within a column and increases from left to right

27
Q

Whats the octet rule ?

A

(atoms are more stable when their valence electrons are filled with 8 electrons )

28
Q

Differentiate Cations and Anions

A

Cations are ions positively charged
Anions are ions negatively charged

29
Q

How are ions formed ?

A

they must gain or lose an electron

30
Q

How are charges assigned to atoms

A

Number of Protons - number of electrons = charge on ion

31
Q

Properties of water

A

Solvent
Polar
Both cohesive and adhesive

32
Q

Differences between solvent, solute, and solution

A

A solution is a mix of a solute dissolved into a solvent
A solute is the substance being dissolved
A solvent is able to dissolve other substances

33
Q

Electrolytes vs Nonelectrolytes

A

Electrolytes- compounds that conduct an electric current when in a solution or melted
Non electrolytes don’t conduct currents

34
Q

Interactions of non polar substances

A

No polar molecules don’t interact with water or form hydration shells
Example- fats and oils

35
Q

Are hydrophobic molecules polar or non polar

A

non polar

36
Q

Whats the pH of blood ?

A

7.4

37
Q

Neutralization vs Buffering

A

The pH changes during neutralization while it remains the same after adding a buffer solution

38
Q

How do buffers function to help maintain pH

A

They neutralize any added acid

39
Q

Define polymer

A

Any substance composed of several macromolecules

40
Q

Biological Macromolecules
