How does your body work
Chemical rxn
what is a chemical reaction
molecules making and breaking bonds
structure is determined by
atoms
atom
smallest unit of matter that still retains the properties of an element
electrons
negative
proton
positive
neutron
neutral
essential elements- 96%
carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitogen
4%
Phosphorus, sulfur, calcium, potassium
trace elements
required in little quantities- iron, iodine
Goiter
iodine deficiency
structure of an atom depends on what
subatomic particles
atomic mass
neutron plus proton
wt of proton or neutron
1 dalton
location of atomic mass on element chart
bottom number
atomic number
# of protons THIS NUMBER NEVER CHANGES!!
charge of atom?
neutral unless otherwise stated
atomic number
protons
mass number
neutrons plus protons
Ex: 2N+2P=4Daltons
Isotopes
same element with diff # of neutrons
(Atomic # same, atomic mass differs)
Do protons change within an element?
NO
Radioactive Isotope
Unstable, nucleus spontaneously decays, gives off particles and energy
ex: 14C=boron
CHANGES ELEMENTS BC GIVES OFF PROTON
Radioactive tracers
used to follow metabolic rxns
ex: kidney disorder
what reacts when atoms collide?
electrons
kinetic energy
energy of movement
potential energy
energy due to location
What kind of energy does electrons have?
potential
Amount of energy in an eletron depends on what?
location related to nucleus (layers)
how many electrons are in each shell?
Shell 1: 2E
Shell 2: 8E
Shell 3: 8E
when is energy absorbed in electrons?
as it moves further away from the nucleus
When in energy released in electrons?
as electrons move closer to the nucleus
Chemical behavior is determined by?
electron configuration
Chemical re-activity depends on?
valence shells
Full valence electron?-Mood?
Unfull valence electron? Mood?
Full-Stable
Unfull- Reactive
What is the strongest bond?
Covalent
What is the weakest bond?
Hydrogen
What do covalent bonds do?
Share electrons
Molecule
2+ atoms held together by a covalent bond
bonding capacity
# of covalent bonds the atom can form (valence)
non polar covalent bond
electrons shared equally
NO CHARGE
Polar covalent bond
electrons not shared equally
(charge)
electronegativity
attraction of an atom for the electrons in a covalent bond
Is water polar?
YES! Negative Charge due to unequal sharing
Ionic bonds
attraction between oppositely charged atoms
loose or gain electron
Cation
lose electron- positive charge
Anion
Gain electron- negative charge
Hydrogen Bond
H covalently bonds to one negative charged atom
ex: H2O
Shape of a molecule directly relates to?
function
Shape of the electron is determined by?
orbitals
Methane Molecule
CH4
Electron orbitals determine?
Shape
Why is shape important?
determines how molecules recognize & interact
ex: cellular communication- receptors
Morphine and Heroin mimic what?
endorphins in your brain
