Q

Redox

A

Process of reduction and oxidation

18
Q

Valence electrons

A

Number of electrons in outermost energy level

19
Q

Inert elements (nonreactive)

A

Elements have all 8 electrons

20
Q

Octet rule

A

Atoms tend to establish completely full outer energy levels, those that are not filled are less reactive than those that are unfilled

21
Q

Organic molecules (96.3%of human body weight)

A

Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen

22
Q

Molecules

A

1 type of element. Groups of 2 or more atoms that are held together in stable association

23
Q

Compounds

A

Molecules containing more than 1 type of element

24
Q

Chemical bonds

A

How atoms are held together in molecules and compounds

25
Ionic Bonds
Formed by the attraction of oppositely charged ions. (Gain or loss of electrons forms ions)
26
Covalent bonds
Form when atoms share 2 or more valence electrons. Strength determined by number of electrons shared.
27
Electronegativity
An atom's affinity for electrons
28
Nonpolar covalent bonds
Equal sharing of electrons. 50/50
29
Polar covalent bonds
Unequal sharing of electrons. One side slightly more negative (more of electrons) Other side slightly more positive.
30
Chemical Reactions
Formation or breaking of chemical bonds Temperature Concentration of reactants and products Availability of a catalyst (Enzymes - proteins or RNA)
31
Hydrogen Bonds
Weak individual attractions between the partially neg O of one water molecule and partially pos H of a different water molecule. O partially neg, H partially pos.Highly polar. Can be between water molecules or another charged molecule
32
Cohesion
Water molecules stick to other water molecules by hydrogen bonding. Weak individually but cumulative effects are strong.
33
Adhesion
Water molecules stick to other polar molecules by hydrogen bonding
34
Solvent
Desolves molecules and ions
35
Hydrophilic
Water loving
36
Hydrophobic
Water fearing
37
pH
Hydrogen ion (H+¹) is the basis of scale. Negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration of a solution Greater H+¹ concentration = Lower pH (acidic) Lower H+¹ concentration = higher pH (basic)
38
Acid
Chemical that releases H+¹ ions. Stronger an acid is the more hydrogen ions it produces and the lower its pH
39
Base
Chemical that accepts H+¹ ions.
40
Buffer
Substance that resists changes in pH (ex. water). Releasing hydrogen ions when a base is added. Absorbing hydrogen ions when acid is added
