Q

How does ionic bonds form

A

Atom gain(-)/ losses(+) e- in its outer energy level to be stable
The bond is formed when (-) (+) attracts each other

16
Q

Define hydrogen bond

A

Don’t create new molecules
Weakly bonds to neighbour molecule
Present in water, DNA, proteins

17
Q

Difference between organic and inorganic chemistry

A

O - C-C and/or C-H covalent
I - don’t
O molecules larger/ >complex than inorganic

18
Q

What’s water

A

It’s inorganic and a solvent, forms aqueous solution in the body

19
Q

What’re the rx water is involved

A

Dehydration
Hydrolysis

20
Q

What’s an acid and a base

A

Acid: substance that shifts H+/OH- balance in favor of H+
Base is the opposite (against H+)

21
Q

What’s pH? Give examples

A

[H+] in an aqueous solution
Acid: stomach, vaginal secretions, urine
Basic: blood, pancreatic juice
Neutral: cytoplasm

22
Q

Explain neutralization and buffer rx

A

N - acid+basic mixed=salts
B - forms chemical syst, absorbs excess acid/base= stable pH

23
Q

What’re carbohydrates

A

Contain CHO
Mono/Disa/Polysaccaride
Glucose/lactose/glycogen

24
Q

Difference between Triglycerides and Phospholipids

A

T - formed by a glycerol unit+3xfatty acids
P - similar but has P. Forms cells membrane

25
Q

What’s cholesterol

A

Molecules have steroid structure w/4 rings -> stabilizes phospholipids tails
Converted into steroid hormones
