Matter

All materials that occupy space and have mass

Compound

Molecules that are combinations of two or more different elements

Molecules

A chemical substance that results from the combination of 2 or more atoms

Element

Unique types of structures made from the 3 subatomic particles

Name the element: C, H, O, N, Ca, K, Na, Cl, P

C - carbon


H - hydrogen


O - oxygen


N - nitrogen


Ca - calcium


K - potassium


Na - sodium


Cl - chlorine


P - phosphorus

Atom

Smallest part of an element that contains protons, electrons, and neutrons

Proton, electron, and neutron location/charge

Proton - positive, nucleus


Electron - negative, electron cloud


Neutron - no charge, nucleus

Chemical bond

Results when 2 or more atoms share, donate, or accept electrons

Ionic bond

Attraction between 2 oppositely charged ions (anion and cation), electrons are transferred


Strongest bond, NaCl

Covalent bond

When 2 atoms share electrons


Stronger than hydrogen bonds, O2 or H2

Hydrogen bond

Occurs between a hydrogen covalentely bonded to one molecule and an oxygen/nitrogen atom on the same or a different molecule


Weakest bond, H2O

Anion and cation

Anion - negatively charged ion (Cl-)


Cation - positively charged ion (Na+)

Energy

Power derived from utilization of physical and chemical resources

Kinetic, potential, and chemical energy

Kinetic - energy of motion


Potential - energy by virtue of position relative to others


Chemical - energy of chemical compounds stored in their bonds

Structure of water

Polar molecule with a slight negative charge on oxygen and positive charge on hydrogen (water molecules attracted together by polarity)

Importance of water

Life on earth began in water, water covers most of earth

Properties of water

Attraction to polar molecules


High specific heat and heat of vaporization


Lower density of ice


High polarity


Cohesion and surface tension


Universal solvent

Enzyme

Biochemical catalysts


Contain active site where substrate binds


Can only perform one type of reaction


Can be denatured by pH, salt, temp


Name ends with -ase

ATP

Adenosine Triphosphate


Energy currency of cells

Acid and base

Acid: donate H+ (proton), pH below 7


Base: accept H+ (proton), pH above 7

Organic compund

Biological molecules that contain carbon and hydrogen


Ex. Carbohydrates (C, H, O), lipids (C, H, O), proteins (C, H, O, N), nucleic acids (C, H, O, N, P)

Inorganic compound

Does not contain both hydrogen and carbon


Ex. NaCl, CaCO3, CO2

Synthesis reaction

Reactants bond together to produce a new molecule (A + B = AB)

Decomposition reaction

Bonds in a single reactant are broken to release 2 or more new molecules (AB = A + B)

Exchange reaction

Reactants trade portions and release products that are a combination of the 2 (AB + CD = AC + BD)

Reactants and products

Reactants - before reaction


Products - after reaction

Carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids are made up of which elements

Carbohydrates - C, H, O


Proteins - C, H, O, N


Lipids - C, H, O

What has a 2:1 ratio of hydrogen and oxygen

Carbohydrates

Characteristics functions and examples of carbohydrates, lipids, and protein

Carbohydrates - monosaccarides, glucose, fructose, maltose


Lipids - fatty acids and glycerol, fats, oils, myolic acid


Protein - amino acids, enzymes, cell wall, ribosomes

Mono, di, and polysaccharides

Monosaccharide - simple sugar, most basic carb (glucose, fructose)


Dissaccharide - 2 sugars (sucrose, lactose)


Polysaccharide - many sugars (starch, cellulose, glycogen)

Mononers of carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids, and proteins

Carbohydrates - monosaccharides


Lipids - fatty acids, glycerol


Nucleic acids - nucleotide


Protein - amino acid

How are proteins denatured
