neutral atom
has no overall electrical charge
number of positive charges =number of negative

Atomic number
number of protons
*number of protons =number of electrons
OCTET RULE
in order for an atom to be cheically stable there needs to be eiht electrons in its outer most orbital
molecule
2 or more atoms bonded together
compound
2 or more different atoms(elements) are bonded
inorganic compounds
made of non-carbon elements(periodic table)
organic compounds
use carbon as the major structural element
covalent bonding
sharing of electrons between atoms
polar covalent bonding
unequal sharing of electrons (enable to dissolve in H20)
ionic bonding
attraction of oppositely charged atoms
hydrogen bonding
formed by ionic attraction of hydrogen ion and a negative charge onanother molecule ie water molecule and salt

acids release hyrogen ions(H)
bases release hydroxide (OH)
buffer-a sublstance that
resist changes in the pH
solution
made of two components
solute-substance that is dissolved(salt)
solvent-substance which dissolves the solute(water)
colloids
solutions which have solutes that are large & will not pass through membranes ie:gelatin, proteins
suspensions
solutes are very large; too heavy to remain suspended; eventually affected by gravity ie:blood
decomposition
when a large molecule is broken into smaller units ie:digestin, catabolic reactions
synthesis
when small molecules are linked together forming large molecules ie:making proteins, fats &glycogen
exchange reactions
AB + CD = AC + BD
molecules exchange atom pairs
interphase
cell growth
normal activities take place
mitosis
division of nucleus
prophase
centrioles go polar
metaphase
equator line up
anaphase
chromosomes to polar
telophase
stretching of cytoplasm
cytokinesis
division of cytoplasm
inorganic
no carbon
water
polar molecule
universal solvent
pulls apart electrically charged molecules
the mose important property of nay chemical is does it dissolve in H2O
acids
releases hydrogen ions(proton donor) 1-6.999 pH
bases
absorbs hydrogen ions(releases OH) 7-14 pH
lower # H stronger the base
salts
ionic bonded comopound-results (product) of
neutrolization process
pH scales and buffers
1-14 scale
lower pH #=stronger acid
