What are the 3 Ionic Bonds? |
Ions, Cations, and Anions |
|
|
What is an Ionic Bond? |
When a positively charged ion forms a bond with a negatively charged ion and one atom transfers electrons to another |
|
|
What is an Ion? |
An atom or molecule with a net electric charge due to the loss or gain of one or more electrons |
|
|
What is a Cation? |
A positively charged ion |
|
|
What is an Anion? |
A negatively charged ion |
|
|
What is a Hydrogen Bond? |
A weak bond between two molecules resulting from an electrostatic attraction between a proton in one molecule and an electronegative atom in the other |
|
|
What is a Polar Covalent Bond? |
A chemical bond in which the electrons required to form a bond is unequally shared between two atoms |
|
|
What is a Nonpolar Covalent Bond? |
A type of bond that occurs when two atoms share a pair of electrons with each other |
|
|
What is the 1st rule for predicting the type of bond based upon electronegativity differences? |
If the electronegativities are equal (ex. If the electronegativity difference is 0 or less than 1), the bond is non-polar covalent. |
|
|
What is the 2nd rule for predicting the type of bond based upon electronegativity differences? |
If the difference in electronegativities between the two atoms is 1 or greater, but less than 2.0, the bond is polar covalent. |
|
|
What is the 3rd rule for predicting the type of bond based upon electronegativity differences? |
If the difference in electronegativities between the two atoms is 2.0 or greater, the bond is ionic. |
|
|
What is the definition of Catabolism? |
Conversion of large molecules into smaller components |
|
|
What is the definition of Anabolism? |
Conversion of small organic molecules by forming chemical bonds between the smaller molecules |
|
|
What is the definition of Metabolism? |
All the chemical conversions that occur within a cell |
|
|
What are Metabolic Pathways? |
Series of metabolic reactions that occur in specific sequences |
|
|
What is the chemical equation for Cellular Respiration? |
|
|
|
What is the chemical equation for Photosynthesis? |
|
|
|
What are Enzymes? |
Substances produced by a living organism that act as a catalyst to bring about a specific biochemical reaction |
