Chemistry 1 Inorganic Chemistry Flashcards
Has a positive charge in the nucleus
Protons
Has a 0 charge in the nucleus
Neutrons
Surrounds the nucleus
Electrons
Attractive force between oppositely charged ions
Ionic Bond
Atoms attract through shared electrons
Covalent Bond
Weak hydrogen is attracted to negative portion of polar molecule
Hydrogen Bond
When electrons are unevenly shared
Polar
When electrons are neutral and evenly shared
Non-polar
Ions with a positive charge
Cations
Ions with a negative charge
Anions
Charged element particles
Ions
Substance composed of two or more different elements
Compounds
Two or more atoms joined together by chemical bonds
Molecules
A type of solution that is a dissolving medium and present in the greatest amount
Solvent
A type of solution that is the dissolved substance and is present in the smallest amount
Solute
Two or more components physically intermixed
Solution
A type of reaction that build atoms, molecules, ions and compounds into more complicated forms through anabolism
Synthesis Reaction
A type of reaction that break down large molecules into smaller units through catabolism
Decomposition Reaction
A type of reaction that seek equilibrium and proceed from both directions
Reversible Reaction
This type of compound lacks carbon and is a simple compound
Inorganic Compound
What compounds make up Inorganic compounds
Water, Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, Salts, and Acids & Bases
How much water percentage makes up our body weight
60-80%
What type of chemical reaction does water have
Hydrolysis Reactions & Dehydration Synthesis
How much oxygen is made up of the air we breathe
20%
Example of partial disassociation (weak acid)
H2CO3
Example of complete disassociation (strong acid)
HCl
Proton acceptors that attract and combine with H+ in water
Bases
Proton donors
Acids
If the pH scale is pH = 7 it is
Neutral
If the pH scale is pH < 7 it is
Physiological Acidosis (Too Acidic)
If the pH scale is pH > 7 it is
Physiological Alkalosis (Too Basic)
