Lecture 3 Flashcards
four known forms of energy
chemical, electrical, mechanical, and electromagnet
energy
chemical
stored in the bonds of chemical substances
energy
electrical
results from the movement of electrons
energy
mechanical
directly involved in moving matter
energy
radiant/electromagnetic
energy traveling in waves
energy
conservation of energy principal
states that the total amount of energy
in the universe is constant. Energy is neither created nor destroyed, it
only changes form.
two TYPES of energy
potential and kinetic
cell respiration formula
oxygen + glucose = energy (ATP) + carbon dioxide + water + heat
potential energy
energy of position/stored energy
kinetic energy
energy in motion
four states of matter
solid, liquid, gas, plasma
states of matter
solid matter
has definite shape and volume
states of matter
liquid matter
definite volume, changeable shape
states of matter
gas matter
changeable shape and volume
states of matter
plasma matter
what space is made of
matter
anything that occupies space and has mass
mass
the amount of matter in an object
weight
the gravitational force acting on an object of a given mass
element
simplest type of matter with unique chemical properties; composed of atoms of only one kind
atom
smallest particle of an element that has chemical characteristics of that element
common elements in body
(CHON) hydrogen , carbon, nitrogen, oxygen
(96.5% of body weight)
lesser elements in body
calcium, phosphorus, potassium, sulfur, sodium, chlorine, magnesium, iodine, and iron (3.9%)
trace elements in body (0.01%)
copper, zinc, tin etc
atoms
composed of subatomic particles
