Atom

Are the smallest unit of an element that still has the chemical properties

Everything we see is made of atoms.


ex, everything

Molecule

Molecule

Identical units that can be divided but will still be the same unit, they are made up of atoms

I love to go swimming through molecules.


ex, water

Proton

A positive charge found within the atom

That guy sure is one proton kind of guy.


ex, atom

Electron

A negative charge within the nucleus of an atom

Please don't be like an electron.


ex, atom

Neutron

A neutral charge within the nucleus of an atom

I am going to remain a neutron in this argument


ex, atom

Element


Substances that cannot be changed chemically

I will be an element in this relationship, unchangeable.


ex, phosphate

Ion

An atom that has changed its charge by gaining or losing an electron

An ion can either win or lose.


ex, Oxygen with hydrogen

Isotope

Atoms of the same element that have a different number of neutrons

Me and my best friend are like isotopes.


ex, Carbon

Ionic bond

A bond between to atoms with opposite charges

Me and my enemy made peace, almost like a ionic bond.


ex, Nitrogen and sodium

Covalent bond

A bond between two atoms which share 1+ electrons

We share our sandwich like a covalent bond.


ex, Hydrogen and carbon

Polar covalent bond

Electrons aren't shared equally in the bond

Don't hog the pizza like a polar covalent bond.


ex, ice

Law of Conservation of matter

The law that states matter cannot be created or destroyed through chemical reactions

Based on the Law of Conservation of Matter that car that just blew to bits is still here.


ex, synthesis reaction

Activation energy

The energy needed for a chemical reaction to occur

That atom is going to need some activation energy before it does anything.


ex, boiling water

Hydrogen bond

A weak bond between a slight negative hydrogen of a molecule with a positive atom of another

I have a bond between some people like a hydrogen bond, I think it needs to be stronger.

pH scale

pH scale

A scale measure H+ and OH- from 1-14

I go from 0-14 just like the pH scale.


ex, acid and base

Acid

More H+ than OH- less then 7 on the pH scale

The H+ is very high in this it must be a acid.


ex, vinegar

Base

More OH- than H+ more than 7 on the pH scale.

The OH- is very high in this it must be a base.


ex, water

Organic compounds

Organic compounds

All living things contain H, C, O and usually N, S, or P

Everywhere outside I see organic compounds.


ex, you

Macromolecules

Large complex molecules

This puzzle is much like a macromolecule.


ex, carbs

Carbohydrates

Contains h and o in the same ratio as water 2:1

I have so much carbohydrates in my diet.


ex, pasta

Lipids

Fats and oils that are macromolecules and have the function of storing carbon and energy and also building structure for the cells membrane

If I keep eating lipids I will get fat.


ex, cholesterol

Proteins

Structural components of cells as well as messengers

I am eating this steak full of proteins.


ex, meat

Nucleic acids

These dictate amino acid process and are responsible for genetic info in chromosomes

I am going to act as the nucleic acid in this group.


ex, DNA

Monosaccharides

sing sugars ranging from 3-7 carbon

I would like only one spoon of monosaccharides.


ex, fructose

Fatty acids and glycerol

Fatty acids and glycerol

Makes up the simple fats that are common in our body and diets

I can feel the fatty acids flowing through my veins.


ex, margarine

Amino acids

Linking building blocks of proteins that are small molecules containing O, C, H, N and 2 contain S

The amino acids in my body keep me alive.


ex, protein

Nucleotides

Simple units that make up nucleic acids in long chains

Without some of those nucleotides you'd look a lot different.


ex, nucleic acid

Disaccharides

Disaccharides

Double sugar

I would like two servings of disaccharides.


ex, lactose

Polysaccharides

Complex carbs that have multiple glucose molecules

This meal is very complex it is filled with polysaccharides.


ex, glycogen

Polypeptide

Long chain of amino acid

The polypeptides within this steak are very flavorful.


ex, protein

Peptide bond

Covalent bonds between amino acids

The peptide bond was great in that piece of meat.


ex, amino acids

DNA

nucleotides containing deoxyribose

Your DNA is very strong keep it away from radioactivity.


ex, genes

Genes

formed by DNA and are small units of genetic information passed down from parents

The genes from your parents passed down very evenly to you.


ex, offspring
