BIO midterm; chem, biochem, Flashcards
Matter is..
Stuff of nature; mass and occupies space
Matter is three forms
solid liquid gas
matter is composed of
atoms
atoms create
elements
Elements organized in a chart is called:
the periodic table of elements
Periodic table is a number of______ in each element are grouped by major minor and ____ elements
subtomic particles , trace elements
6 MAJOR ELEMENTS
Oxygen
carbon
nitrogen
hydrogen
calcium
phosphorus
6 MINOR ELEMENTS
Potassium
sodium
chlorine
iron
magnesium
sulfur
Atoms are
subtomic particles
(protons neutrons electrons) have charge
Mass is expressed as
atomic mass unit (amu) or daltons
Proton/neutron have the mass of
1 amu
Protons have a
postitive hage of +1
neutrons have a
NO CHARGE (NEUTRAL)
Protons and neutrons are the center of??
an atom the nucleus
atoms nuclei are
positively charged
electrons_____ the nucleus
orbit/orbitals
number of protons is called
the atomic number
P+#N=
atomic mass
the number of electrons is determined by the
atomic number
all atoms have
zero net charge
negative charged particles =
the number of protons positively.
= number of protons with a different number of neutrons are
isotopes
carbon 13 and 14 are
a net charge
radioactive isotopes release…..
radiation
PTE Column VIIA have
8 electrons in valance shells. very stable!!
Column VIIA are
noble gases
Ions are
formed by element gaining or losing electron
Covalent bond is formed when
two atoms share an election in valance shell
chemical compounds are
stable associations between two or more elements
ionic compounds are bound together by
ionic bonds
ionic bonds are
electrostatic in nature
ionic bonds have positive and negative charge depending on
GAINING an electron or loosing an electron
Covalent bonds
exist between atoms that share electrons (OCTET RULE) these are molecules
Molecular compounds
two or more diff element H2O
Chemical Compounds
stable associations between two or more elements in the body
chemical compounds are either
ionic or molecular
ionic compounds are bound together by
ionic bonds
cations
atoms with 1, 2, 3 valent electrons
anions
atoms of 5,6,7 valent electrons
Bonds between two or more atoms are
polyatomic ions HCO3 Bicarbonate
Covalent bonds
exist between atoms that share an electron to create chemicals stable
are molecules
elements to form covalent bonds are
Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Carbon
carbon can form
4 covalent bonds
carbon skeleton can be
linear braided or ring form
non-polar covalent is when
atoms share electrons equally
occur between atoms
amphipathic molecule
large molecure that contains both non-polar and polar patterns
water is a
universal solvent
salts acids bases dissolve in water
polar organs dissolve in water but remain intact
Molarity
number of moles per filter
molality
moles per kilogram of solvent
osmolarity
number of particles in 1 liter
osmolality
number of particles in 1 kg of water
Nucleic acids
DNA,RNA,ATP
four classes of organ bio macromolecules:
variation of H and functional groups
dehydration synthesis and digested through hydrolysis
polymers except for lipids
Lipids are
fatty non water soluble molecules (steroids)
