How many electrons in 1st shell?

2

How many electrons in 2nd shell?

8

Electrons in more distant shells have what?

Higher energy

What are Valence electrons?

Those electrons in the outermost shell

What do Valence electrons do?

Participate in chemical reactions and form bonds

What is an Electrovalent Bond?

Ionic bond

What is a Covalent bond?

Sharing of electrons

What is a cation?

Atom that loses an electron and becomes a positively charged ion

What is an anion?

An atom that gains an electron and becomes negatively charged

Order from weakest to greatest strength bond

Ionic


Covalent


Hydrogen

What is an ionic bond?

Electrons are stolen from another atom

Example of Ionic bond

Sodium Chloride (NaCl)

Give an example of Nonpolar Covalent bonding

H2

Define Nonpolar Covalent bonding

Equal sharing of electrons

Define Polar Covalent bonding

Electrons shared unequally

Give an example of a Polar Covalent Bond

H2O

Define Coordinate Covalent bonding

One atom provides both electrons in a shared pair

Define Hydrogen bond

H atoms form polar bond with another atom taking on a slight + charge making it attract to any nearby negatively charged atoms

Give an example of hydrogen bonding

Water. H on one water molecule binds to the O on another water molecule

Define solvent

The majority of a solution. Something that dissolves another solution

Define solute

The solution or element that dissolves

Define hydrophilic

Water loving - soluble in water

Define hydrophobic

Water fear - insoluble in water

Is water a solvent or solute? And what kind of compound will it dissolve?

Solvent - polar compounds

Define osmosis

Movement of solvent (water) across a semipermeable membrane into an area of higher solute concentration

Define osmotic pressure

Pressure required to maintain equilibrium across the semipermeable membrane with no net movement of solvent

Define osmolarity

Solute concentration

Define isotonic solution

Solution that contains the SAME osmolarity as the surrounding environment outside

Define hypotonic solution

Osmolarity of the outside is lower than the inside

Define hypertonic solution

Osmolarity of the outside is higher than the inside

What do each of the 3 solutions cause the cell to do?


Isotonic


Hypotonic


Hypertonic

Remain the same


Swell


Shrink

Define acid

Proton donor - concentration of H+ ions

Define base

Proton acceptor and also releases hydroxyl (OH)

What is the pH of blood?

7.35 - 7.45

What is a buffer?

Prevents large changes in pH

What does a buffer consist of?

A weak acid and it's conjugate base


A weak base and it's conjugate acid
