Distinguish Atomic Mass and Atomic number
Atomic mass is the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an element
Atomic number is just the number of protons in the nucleus of an element
Isotopes and their level
Atoms that have the same number of protons but not the same number of neutrons
-Atomic level
Ion and it’s level
Charger atom that has gained or lost valence electrons
Uneven protons and electrons
-Both atomic and molecular level
Isomers and their level
Compounds that contain exactly the same level of atoms
-molecular level
What is electro negativity
The measure of an atoms ability to attract electrons
What are valence electrons
The electrons in the outermost shell it energy level of an atom
Which elements in the periodic table are likely to form cations or anions
Halogens and alkaline metals
What is a polar molecule ?
A neutral/ uncharged molecule
What is Cohesion
The attraction of molecules for other molecules of the same kind
What is adhesion
The attraction of molecules for other molecules of a different kind
What does amphipatic mean
Both polar and non polar
What are the pH ranges ?
0-6 Base
7 Neutral
8-14 Acidic
What happens when there’s more hydrogen in a solution ?
It becomes less acidic
Differences between dehydration and Hydrolysis
Dehydration synthesis builds up molecules and requires energy
Hydrolysis breaks down molecules and released energy
DNA vs RNA
Dna is double stranded and has deoxyribose
Rna is single stranded and had ribose
