Ch 2 Flashcards
3 basic structures of an atom
electrons, protons, neutrons
electrons
negatively charged part that orbit nucleus
protons
pos charged part in nucleus
neutrons
uncharged part in nucleus
electron orbital configuration
1S2,2S2,2P4
3 types of chem bonds
ionic, covalent, hydrogen
ionic bond
attraction b/t ions of opposite charge, one atom loses e- and another gains e-
covalent bond
2 atoms share 1 or more pairs of atoms
hydrogen bond
form when H is covalently bonded to an O or N atom is attracted to another O or N atom in another molecule
polar
slight charge, polar sub dissociate forming solutes, hydrophillic
non-polar
hydrophobic
pH measures what?
the amt of H+ in a solution, pH=-log(H+)
increase H+ acid, increase OH- base
acid
HCl, substances that dissociate into 1 or more H+
base
NaOH, sub that dissociate into 1 or more OH-, alkaline
organic compounds
always contain carbon and hydrogen
inorganic compds
typically lack carbon
macromolecules
polymers consisting of many sm repeating molecules
build macromolecule
dehydration synthesis
break macromolecules
hydrolysis or condensation
atomic number
number of protons
atomic mass
neutron + protons
functional groups
alcohol added to carbon skeleton
carbohydrates formula
CH2O
monosaccharides
simple sugars w 3-7 carbon atoms
