Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry

Question 1

Whats is organic chemistry and biochemistry?

Answer 1

We are made up of several carbon based compounds . Foundation of organic chemistry because it’s the study of organisms.

Question 2

Whats do colbant bonds do?

Answer 2

They share electrons. Carbon is based of organic chemistry. These bonds are extremely stable in water. Hydrogen and silicon also form covalent bonds. gen and carbón usually have a bases. No ions charge.

Question 3

How many atoms do hydrogen electrons share? And oxygen and carbon?

Answer 3

Two hydrogens share two electrons and they form H2. And ox and carbon cO2.

Question 4

Which element can bond to itself?

Answer 4

Carbon

Question 5

What is biochemistry ?

Answer 5

It is the study of chemical components of the living systems.

Question 6

What is biochemistry

Answer 6

Hydrogen and carbon have so many covenant bonds they have their on branch

Question 7

Organic notion: how do we represent it?

Answer 7

Hydrochain and hydrocarbon ring

Question 8

Hydrocarbons

Answer 8

Methane - CH4 - one carbon attached to 4 hydrogen - gases form

Ethane - c2h6 -two carbons attached to 6 hydrogens

Propane - c3h8

Butane c4h10

Octane - c8h18

Question 9

What is one possible alcohol? And carboxylic acid and Amines?

Answer 9

Taking bay hydrocarbon and adding OH. Carbon adding COOH. to any hydrogen backbone. Amines attach to (R) hydrocarbon backbone. Smells bad.

Question 10

What are the 4 types of biochemicals?

Answer 10

Proteins - made up of amino acids
Carbs made of up monosaccharides
Lipids made of up of fatty acids and their derivatives
Nucleus acids- composed of sugar, phosphate and organic bases.

Question 11

What is polymerization?

Answer 11

The basic units is monomer 
Two is dimers
Three is trimera
4-15 oligomers 
More than 15 are polymers

Question 12

Biochemical polymers

Answer 12

Most complete biochemicals are made up of simple building blocks

Sugars and starches are monosaccharides
Proteins are made of up amino acids
Fats are made up of fatty acids
Nucleus acids are made from pyrimdine and purine bases

Question 13

Biochemical reactions

Answer 13

Starch molecule is decomposing is catabolism(simple from complex) this is decomposition reactions. Amino acid poly Anabolism (simple to complex) .. surge risk reactions

Question 14

Polymerization reactions

Answer 14

Dehydration synthesis - remove a hydrogen molecule.
