Unit 2 Flashcards
What is the atomic number and atomic mass?
number of protons, protons + neutrons
What are valence electrons and what is the Octet rule?
outer most shell/energy level; electrons that are located on the outer most shell, atoms want to have 8 electrons in their outermost shell
What is the difference between ionic bonds and covalent bonds?
ionic - electrons are transferred from metallic to non metallic; attraction between oppositely charged ions = ionic bond
covalent - sharing of electrons between non metallic atoms; straight line represents 2 electrons
Chemical bonds _______ energy. Energy is _______ when bonds are broken.
store, released
8 protons in _______ atom which makes it have a stronger attraction for electrons. 1 proton in __________. This makes water _______, meaning that —— is _______ and —— is ________
oxygen, hydrogen, polar, negative, positive
Atoms are ________. A compound is _________. An element is _______. A ________ is the smallest unit of a compound and they are neutral.
neutral, chemical combination, pure substance made of one atom, molecule
__________ are bonds that form between water. It is weaker than ionic and covalent.
hydrogen bonds; the O bonds with the H
Due to water’s ability to create hydrogen bonds it gives it certain properties which are?
cohesion - attraction w molecules of the same substance, causes bubbles and surface tension
adhesion - attraction between molecules of different substances, water is sticky
capillary action - adhesion + cohesion, causes a water chain to climb up a tube
universal solvent - it has the ability to dissolve ionic compounds and other polar molecules
high heat capacity
Water is ___________ and ________ makes it an ACID whereas _________ makes it a BASE.
neutral, H+ ions, OH- ions
macromolecules are __________ and are formed by ______________. ________ join to create macromolecules. Monomer may be identical but __________.
giant molecules, polymerization - large compounds are built by joining small ones together, monomers, links may be different
What are the four major macromolecules and what elements are in them?
carbohydrate - CHO, lipids CHO, protein - CHON, nucleic acid - CHONP
What are the polymers, monomers, and functions of each of the macromolecules?
Carbon
- polysaccharide
-monosaccharide
- short term energy/store excess sugar
Lipid
- Lipid/fat
-Glycerol head, Fatty acid tail
-insulation, long term energy storage, steroid, membrane
Nucleic Acid
- DNA, RNA
- nucleotides
- store/transmit genetic info
Protein
- protein polypeptide
- amino acid
- control rxn rate, regulation, fight disease, build bones and muscle, transport
Draw the macromolecules and look in notes for answer.
draw
Denaturation is ______________ and dehydration synthesis is ____________ and _________ undoes ——- by adding water.
change in structure of a protein; alters its function, form of polymerization by removing water, hydrolysis
Amino acids are held together by __________. They form via ________.
peptide bonds, dehydration synthesis
