Q

what is the difference between a mixture and a compound

A

no chemical bonds in a mixture. mixtures can be separated physically

20
Q

how are electrons organized around a nucleus of an atom?

A

electron shells

21
Q

what role does the valence shell play in chemical bonds

A

exist in electron shells and each electron can hold a certain number of electrons

22
Q

what is a valence shell

A

outermost shell

23
Q

valence electrons

A

electrons in the valence shell

24
Q

what are the 3 main types of chemical bonds

A

ionic bonds, covalent bonds, hydrogen bonds

25
ionic bonds
atoms are neutral
26
covalent bonds
shared between atoms
27
hydrogen bonds
hydrogen in a polar bond attracts a molecule from another polar bond
28
what are hydrophilic interactions
dissolve in water
29
what are hydrophobic interactions
do not dissolve in water
30
what makes a compound hydrophilic/hydrophobic
phospholipids
31
what is molecular shape and why is it important
bonds form at different angles and give each compound a unique shape
32
what is a chemical reaction
state of equilibrium such that the rate of anabolism is equal to the rate of catabolism
33
reactant
number and kinds of interacting substances
34
product
compound resulting from the interactions
35
anabolic reactions
synthesis reactions
36
catabolic reactions
degradative reactions
37
redox
loss of electrons and gain of electrons
38
what are chemical reactions dependent on
temperature, concentration, particle size, catalysts
39
what are inorganic compounds
do NOT contain carbon
40
what are the main properties of water that make it such a valuable compound?
lubrication, chemical reactant, high heat capacity, solvent
41
what are salts
ionic compounds with cations and anions. serve as electrolytes
42
what is an acid
released by hydrogen ions
43
what is a base
accept hydrogen ions
44
what is pH
relative concentration of hydrogen ions
45
what is a buffer
resist changes in pH by binding or releasing H+ ions
46
what are organic compounds
contain carbon
