6 properties of water
|
Cohesion, solvent, high specific heat capasity,lubricant, transparent, greatest density at 4*
|
|
|
Cohesion
|
When water particles stick together, lets it be sucked up through tubes.
|
|
|
Solvent
|
Is dissociating other elements, water is used as a solvent when we wash our hands, it dissolves dirt and grime.
|
|
|
High specific heat capasity
|
Means that it takes alot of of energy to heat up or cool down. ( helps ectothermic animals maintain body heat)
|
|
|
Lubricant
|
When pressed between 2 objects creates a barrier which lets objects slide past eachother.
|
|
|
Transparent
|
Means you can see through the matter (see fish in a tank)
|
|
|
Greatest density at 4 degrees
|
The way the h bonds change as water molecules freeze allows the molecules to be closest together at 4 degrees.
|
|
|
Dehydration synthesis
|
When smaller molecules are combined, water is often a project.
|
|
|
Hydrolysis
|
The reverse of de hydrolysis, involving the addition of of water.
|
|
|
Lipid
|
Fats, oils, fatty acids, glycerol
|
|
|
Proteins
|
Enzymes, antibodies, transport proteins and hemoglobin
|
|
|
Nucleic acid
|
Ribonucleic acid and deoxyribonucleic acid
|
|
|
Organic vs inorganic
|
Organic contains carbon inorganic has OH
|
|
|
Carbohydrate
|
Bread, pasta, sugar, glucose.
|
|
|
Polysaccharides
|
A large molecule consisting of a bunch of monosaccharides put together. Starch, cellulose, glycogen.
|
|
|
Peptide bond
|
The bond that holds two or more amino acids together.
