Functional Groups:
|
ester, ketone/aldehydes, alcohol, ether, amines, nitrate/ite, sulfate/ite, phosphate
|
|
Bond types:
|
covalent, ionic, hydrogen, van der Waals interactions, lipophobic/hydrophilic(water soluble), lipophilic/hydrophobic(water insoluble...holds hydrophobic molecules together)
|
|
Pure Substances (divided into):
|
Elements & Compounds
|
|
Mixtures (divided into):
|
Homogenous (solutions) & heterogeneous
|
|
Fermentation:
|
big molecules breaking down into small molecules
(breaking bonds to release energy) sugar-> alcohol + CO2 |
|
Most food are acidic or basic?
|
acidic
|
|
Below pH _______, ____________ cannot germinate
|
4.6, c. botulinum
|
|
When canning, pH determines the method.
|
water bath: 0-4.6
pressure: 4.6-7 |
|
Neutralization
|
acid + base = neutral (water) + gas, usually
|
|
Ionization
|
opposite of neutralization
NaCl -> Na+ + Cl- |
|
Addition of solutes to water affects:
(so does altitude) |
melting/boiling point
|
|
Water phase diagram: trend & critical points
|
0 degrees, ice starts to melt..plateau (latent heat)...water is fully melted and starts to heat..100 degrees water starts to steam..plateau (latent heat)..water is all turned to steam
|
|
Colligative properties:
|
properties affected by the addition of solutes
Melting point depression = +1 mol solute, MP decreases by 1.86 degrees C Boiling point elevation = + 1 mol solute, BP elevates by about 0.5 degrees C |
|
True solutions
|
particle size <1 millimicron (1 nanometer)
|
|
Colloids
|
particle size >1nm>1 micron (micrometer)
|
|
Suspensions
|
particle size >1 micron (micrometer)
|
