Q

What is a chemical change of matter?

A

Change in substance that creates a new substance with chemical characteristics different from those of the original. EX: iron changing to rust, baking a cake, or hair color change by missing hair color and hydrogen peroxide

A

not missing electrons in the outer shell

21
Q

Unstable atoms: not missing electrons in outer shell OR missing electrons in the outer shell?

missing electrons in the outer shell

22
Q

The atomic number indicates how many _________ are in a single atom of a particular element.

A

protons

23
Q

When two or more atoms are joined together by a chemical bond, it creates what?

A

molecules

24
Q

Different atoms joined together as molecules become the smallest parts of what?

A

a compound

25
Q

Pure substances are made of one type of _______ or __________.

A

atom or molecule

26
Q

Mixtures contain two or more substances that are ____________ ____________.

A

physically combined

27
Q

What are compounds consisting of carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen?

A

28
Q

Hair is a form of protein called?

A

keratin

29
Q

The amino acids that create protein are linked together end to end by a ___________ bond, also known as an _________ bond.

A

peptide bond, end bond

30
Q

Hair is the linking together of __________ groups.

A

protein

31
Q

What are the 4 side bonds?

A
  1. hydrogen bond
  2. salt bond
  3. disulfide bond
  4. van der Waals forces
32
Q

Which type of bond works on the principle that unlike charges attract? It can easily be broken by heat or water. Accounts for 35% of hair’s strength due to millions of the bonds in hair’s structure.

A

Hydrogen Bond

33
