Q

Fluorine 18

A

Image tumours and localized infections
Half life: 110 minute

19
Q

What is the relationship between element and atom?

A

All matter is composed of elements, the smallest particle of the element that retains his properties is atom

20
Q

Explain explain the difference between carbon 12 and carbon 14

A

Carbon 12 is a stable carbon atom. It has 12 protons and neutrons carbon 14 has more neutrons than protons so it’s unstable causing it to decay.

21
Q

Intramolecular force

A

Bond within the molecule

22
Q

Intermolecular force

A

Force of attraction between molecules

23
Q

Ionic bond

A
  • Metal and nonmetal
  • Transfer electrons
24
Q

Covalent bond

A
  • Between two nonmetals
  • share electrons
25
Hydrogen bond
When hydrogen bond is attached to ONF atom in a molecule
26
Dipole-Dipole
Present in polar due to the electronegativity difference
27
London forces
Is formed due to the electro distribution of electrons around the nucleus, present in all molecule
28
Electronegativity
The ability of a atom to attract electrons
29
^EN
Difference of electronegativity between atoms
30
How do you know if an atom is polar, nonpolar, or ionic due to a ^EN calculations?
0-0.5 - non polar 0.5-1.7 - polar above 1.7 - Ionic
31
Water and its properties
A water molecule is polar because of the two polar O-H bond
32
Hydrophilic
Meaning water loving, non-polar have a natural tendency to form hydrogen bonds with water
33
Hydrophobic
Nonpolar molecule do not form hydrogen bond with water
34
An ion
A positive or negatively charge atom
35
Functional group
A group of atoms that behave in a certain way
36
Hydroxyl
Polar structural formula is -OH Example of an hydroxyl is ethanol Is found in carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acid, and protein
37
Carbonyl
It’s polar Structural formula is carbon double bonded to oxygen Example of carbonyl is acetaldehyde Found in carbohydrates and nucleic acid
38
Carboxyl
Polar acidic (donates a proton) Structural formula is carbon double bonded to oxygen and a single bond to hydroxyl. example of carboxyl is acetic acid Found in protein and lipids
39
Amino acid
Polar basic (accepts a proton) Structural formula is N ( nitrogen) bonded to two hydrogen An example of an amino acid is Alanine Amino acid is found in proteins and nucleic acid
40
Sulfhydryl
Slightly polar The structure formula is S bonded to one hydrogen The example of sulfhydryl cysteine Sulfhydryl found in only protein
41
Phosphate
Polar negatively charged The structural formula is P single bonded to three oxygen and double bonded to another one An example of phosphate is Glycerol phosphate Phosphate is found in nucleic acids
42
Which is stronger intramolecular or intermolecular force
Intramolecular forces are stronger than intermolecular force because they involve chemical bond whereas intermolecular force involve weaker attraction interaction between separate molecules
43
What’s the ranking between all forces?
1. Ionic bond. 2. Covalent bond. 3. Hydrogen bond. 4. Dipole-Dipole 5. London forces.
