Bacteria
Archaea Plantae Animalia Fungi Protista |
|
Process of Life
|
The Domain of Science is nature on summary.
|
|
Two Main types of scientific inquiry.
|
Discovery & Induction
|
|
Discovery Science
|
Get out in the field and cond. exp. very detaied "range"
|
|
Inductive reasoning
|
i: specific observations-general conclusions.
ii: problems w/ inductions. ex: birds flying: all birds; but some don't. |
|
hypothesis
|
tentative explanation must be capable of being tested must be falsifiable.
|
|
Theory
|
More Permanent more support by a large body of data, developed over time can have exceptions and modified applies to a large body of data ("phenomena")
|
|
Natural Occurring Elements
|
O - Oxygen
C - Carbon H - Hydrogen N - Nitrogen |
|
Trace Element
|
Less than (0.01%) of mass
|
|
Element
|
A substance that cannot be broken down into another substance
|
|
Atom
|
The smallest unit of matter that can be broken down & still retain the attributes of the element.
|
|
Protons
|
(+) in nucleus
|
|
Electron
|
(-) Charge outside the nucleus
|
|
Neutrons
|
Neutral charge in nucleus
|
|
Atomic Nucleus
|
An atoms central core: at least one proton(+) & often neutrons as well
|
|
Atomic number
|
The number of protons.
ex: 2He - indicates that it has 2 protons. |
|
Mass Number
|
Number of protons and neutrons. ex: Helium can be written as 4He. Since helium has 2 protons, we know that it also has 2 neutrons.
|
|
Dalton
|
Unit of measurement amount wt. of a proton, neutron.
*Measure of mass for atoms & subatomic particles |
|
Molecule
|
2 or more atoms covalently bonded together
|
|
Compound
|
2 or more elements combined in a fixed ratio. Emergent Properties.
*Molecular and Ionic |
|
Isotopes
|
Different forms of the same element.
Same # of protons. * May differ in # of neutrons, they may have different atomic wts. |
|
Hydrogen Bonding
|
Weak-easily broken between hydrogen atom and electro-molecule
|
|
Properties of Water
|
1) Oxygen atom electronegative
2) Polar Covalent Bonds |
|
Cohesion
|
distinct molecules are joined together & behave as a single unit.
|
|
H2O Cohesion
|
The attraction of one H2O molecule for another due to Hydrogen Bonding.
|
|
Adhesion
|
Molecules are joined together but do not behave as a single unit.
|
|
Heat
|
Kinetic energy due to molecular motion
|
|
Temperature
|
intensity of heat due to the average kinetic energy
|
|
Measured by degrees
|
Temperature
|
|
Measured by Calorie
|
Heat
|
|
Calorie
|
Amt. of heat gained or lost that cause the temp. of 1g of water to change by 1*C
|
|
Specific Heat
|
Water's ability to stabilize temperature
|
|
Specific Heat of water
|
1cal/g 1*C
|
|
Heat of vaporization
|
Amt. of heat required for 1g of liquid to be converted to a gaseous state.
|
|
Heat vaporization for water
|
580 cal.
|
|
Solvent
|
Will dissolve another substance
|
|
Solute
|
substance dissolved by the solvent
|
|
Solution
|
Liquid which is completely homogeneous mix of 2 or more substances.
|
|
Aqueous solution
|
Solution in which water is the solvent
|
|
Moles
|
Amt. of substances in terms of Avogadro's number.
|
|
Avogadro's number
|
6.022 X 10^23
|
|
Molarity
|
Amt of a substance dissolved in one L of solution. (In terms of wt.)
|
|
2 types of Scientific Inquiry
|
Discovery & Induction
|
|
Discovery
|
get out into the field and observe. Exp: very detailed
|
|
Inductive reasoning
|
specific observations - general conclusions. *problems with inductions
|
