Week Flashcards
hydrogen bond
hydrogen weakly bonded with an anion from another molecule
functional groups of organic chemicals
hydroxyl
carbonyl
carboxyl
amino
sulfhydryl (hydrophobic)
phosphate
methyl (non-reactive)
waters specific heat
1cal/g*C
aqueous solution
solution that uses water as the solvent
how does water release and absorb heat
hydrogen bonds breaking absorb heat (boil into gas)
hydrogen bonds forming release heat (ice)
enatiomers
isomers that are mirrors of each other
Thermal energy
KE associated with movement of atoms and molecules
equation for pH
-log[H+]
Base
Compound that accepts an H+(decreases concentration) or donates an OH- in a chemical reaction
hydroxyl
Alcohol
Dissolves Sugar by forming hydrogen bonds with water
Concentration of H+ and OH- at equilibrium
10^-7 M
covalent bond
sharing of valence electrons with btwn two atoms
nonpolar
electrons are shared equally
ionic bond
bond btwn anion and cation
How do you know if an acid or base is strong
Complete dissociation of H+ or OH- from the acid or base
solute
substance dissolved in a solution
ion
atom that isn’t neutral
sulfhydrl name and function)
Thiol
stabilizes protein structures
solvent
dissolving agent of a solution
trans isomer
two molecules are on opposite sides
explain cohesion of water
hydrogen bonds between water molecules have strong surface tension so they’re hard to break. This means water stays together and can travel up roots of plants
structural isomer
different covalent bond arrangement
energy
capacity to cause change
4 properties of water for life
cohesive behavior
ability to moderate temperature
expansion when frozen
versatility as a solvent
