how do you break bonds?

A

absorption of energy

56
Q

how do you from bonds?

A

release of energy

57
Q

what is exothermic reactions?

A

a reaction that releases more energy than it absorbs

58
Q

what is endothermic reactions?

A

a reaction that absorbs more energy than it releases

59
Q

what is a mole

A

a unit of measurement for an amount of a substance

60
Q

the number of atoms in a mole is the same but the ___ can vary

A

mass

61
Q

Conversion chart for moles to grams?

A

grams of substance over moles of substance is equal to molar mass of the substance in grams over one mole

62
Q

What is molar mass?

A

the sum of each atom’s atomic mass

63
Q

What operation do you use for g to mol? For mol to g?

A

chemical reactions

65
Q

what percentage of cells are water?

A

70%

66
Q

when do cells shutdown?

A

when water percentage is lower than 50%

67
Q

what is a polar molecule?

A

e- shared unevenly across covalent bonds, resulting in partial charges at the poles of the molecule

68
Q

what is electron negativity?

A

e- grabbing/hogging power of an atom (unbalanced)

69
Q

what does electron negativity cause?

A

e- are pulled towards atoms w/higher electron negativity

70
Q

when do you have no electronegativity?

A

with the same atom (&covalent bonds)

71
Q
