Q

Neutron ( +,-,0?)

A

20
Q

Electron (+,-,0?)

A
  • orbits the nucleus of Atoms
21
Q

How does the arragnment of electrons determine an elements reactivity ( Chem Reaction )

A

Atoms with incomplete Valance shells are typically more reactive

22
Q

Stable Isotopes

A

Stable isotopes are non-radioactive forms of atoms

23
Q

Radioisotopes

A

Unstable forms of an element

24
Q

Atoms v Molecules v Compounds

A

Molecules = 2 or more atoms of the same type connected

Compound = 2 or more atoms from different elements and join together

Atom = Smallest unit of matter, with all properties of its element

25
Ionic Chemical Bonds
Link between 2 atoms caused by electrostatic force between oppositily charged ions ( High Polarity ) ( Attract Opposite )
26
Covalent
Link between 2 atoms or ions where electron pairs are shared between them ( Low Polarity ) ( Share electrons to complete outer shell )
27
Hydrogen bonds
A weak bond between two molecules resulting in an attraction from one proton, one molecule and one atom
28
factors that affect the rate of chemical reactions
Concentration of the reactants Temperature Physical state of reactants Prescence of a catalyst light
29
Why are the properties of water important to life
Thermal Properties Ability to be universal solvent Cohesion and Adhesion
30
Importance of the Hydrogen bonds to water
Because of Hydrogen Bonds water can support objects more dense than it
31
Acid
Make Hydrogen Ions ( 0-6 )
32
Bases
Take Hydrogen Ions ( 8-14 )
33
pH scale acid basic neutral
acid = -7 basic = +7 basic = 0
34
Purpose of the buffer
Solution resistant to pH change Neutralize small amount of added acid or base to maintain the pH of the solution relatively stable
35
Water disasociates into an ______ number of Hydrogen Ions
Equal Number of Hydrogen ions
36
Phospholipids look like
Two legs
37
Triglycerides look like
3 legs
38
Where does the body store Cholesteral
The liver
39
Soluble Fiber
Lower blood sugar Full longer
40
Insoluble Fiber
Colon Health Prevents constipation
41
Starch is made of
Polysaccharides which have many glucose bonded together
42
What part of us has the highest ATP requirements
Our brain and muscles
43
C6H12O6+O2
Mitochondrion
44
CO2+H20+ATP
Muscle cell
45
Cellular respiration
Converts energy in food into the energy stored in ATP
