The energy currency for almost all living organisms is a compound called ATP, or adenosine tri-phosphate. This compound is made of up one adenine and three phosphate molecules which link together to form a structure like this: Adenosine Notice that the three bonds within this molecule become increasingly longer the farther away the phosphate is from the adenosine. This is to represent the fact that the bonds weaken as the distance between the adenosine and phosphates increases. This is…

dissolved in water, dissociates into component ions other than H+ and OH-. 4. Ions that conduct an electrical current in solution are called ___electrolytes___. 5. A hydrogen atom has (one/zero) proton(s), (one/zero) electron(s), and (one/zero) neutron(s). 6. A hydrogen ion has (one/zero) proton(s), (one/zero) electron(s), and (one/zero) neutron(s). 7. Acids are substances that (release/accept) hydrogen ions. 8. Bases are substances that (release/accept) hydrogen ions. 9.…

Renae Hallinan is an elite netballer, playing for the Adelaide Thunderbirds in the ANZ Championship League and the Australian Diamonds in the World Championships. Renae is required to work at a fast pace with an extremely high level of skill, as considerable demands are placed upon her anaerobic energy systems, with aerobic fitness assisting in her recovery between bursts of play. Netball games consist of four 15 minute quarters. There is a 3 minute break between the first and second quarter and…

Arrhenius definition. There is also the Bronsted Lowry definition and the Lewis definition. They are defined as the following respectively: a proton acceptor or H+ ion acceptor and an electron pair donor. These terms are used interchangeably to figure out if an element or compound is a base. A base will produce OH- in the reaction products, accept a proton, or have more electrons as the acid and act as the donor. This experiment deals with different bases or antacids that are used to neutralize…

eyes and respiratory system. Chlorine is a nonmetal that has the atomic mass of 35.45 amu. It has a melting point of -100.98 degrees Celsius and a boing point of -34.6 degrees Celsius. However, at room temperature it is a gas. Chlorine contains 17 protons and 17 electrons and also contains 18 neutrons. The density of the chemical element Chlorine is 3.214 c/cm3. Like every member of the halogen group, chlorine has a tendency to gain one electron and become a chloride ion. Chlorine…

know that I will need to be able to adapt in college to the new environment I will be in. As previously mentioned, I am receiving a well rounded education. However, I will not need to know how to find the slope of a line or tell you the ratio of protons to neutrons in a mole of potassium in the future. The point of receiving well rounded education in high school is so you can have options when you attended college. You have at least a small bit of knowledge in a variety of subjects, allowing a…

After the mass of the crude product was measured, the recrystallization was done for more purification; the solution looked clear prior to it’s cooling to room temperature. After the solution cooled to the room temperature and vacuum filtration was done again on recrystallization product, the solution was a white shiny with crystalline solid appearance. The melting point of the Meta-Methyl nitrobenzoate product formed was at 76.2 ‐ 78°C. The appearances of the TLC for the crude product, starting…

Fig: Schematic representation of LHC and it's detectors The primary objective of LHC is to answer the following questions: 1. Why some particles are heavier than others? If the Higgs mechanism is valid? 2. If the super-symmetry theory is valid? If yes then if super-symmetric particles exist? 3. If the concept of dark matter and dark energy correct? 4. Why our universe is made up of matter only? 5. What was the state of matter in the early universe? 6. What will be the properties…

Sodium Azide There is perhaps not a lot known about this chemical and what it can do to/for people. One important aspect is to know what the chemical is made of, doing so will give someone a general look into its makeup. Secondly, “What is something we use this chemical for in everyday life”. Lastly, “How does this affect our cell breathing process?” From these topics, one can gather a general sense of what this substance does and whether or not it should be strayed away from. Of course it…
