| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What elements are essential for life? | CHON Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen |
| Where is electron located, their charge, and size? | Electron is located outside of the nucleus, have a negative charge and are a smaller size. |
| Where is proton located, their charge, and size? | Proton is located in the nucleus, have a positive charge, and the same size as a neutron. |
| Where is neutron located, their charge, and size? | Neutron is located in the nucleus, are neutral, and the same size as a proton |
| Which shell has the highest potential energy? | The 3rd shell |
| What is a covalent bond? | When a pair of electrons are shared by atoms |
| What is an ionic bond? | When one atom gives one or more electrons to another atom |
| What is a hydrogen bond? | A covalent bonded atom that is also attracted to another electronegative atom |
| Which bond is the strongest and why? | Covalent bond is the strongest since they form the cell molecule |
| What is the difference between polar and non-polar? | Non-polar share the electron equally and Polar is when one atom has more electronegative and don't share electrons equally. |
| Why does the shape of a molecule matter? | The structure defines the function |
| If 2 molecules are similar but not exact, will the function be the same? | No, most of the time even a slight difference can change the whole function or purpose. |
| What is Matter? | Anything that takes up space |
| What is an element? | Substance that can't be broken down with other substance |
| What is a molecule? | A group of 2 or more atoms bonded together |
| What is a compound? | Substance consisting 2 or more elements |
| What is an Ion? | atom ore molecule with a different # of electrons and protons |
| What is an Isotope? | different # of neutrons |
| What is Reactant? | The starting molecule of a chemical reaction |
| What is a Product? | The final molecule of a chemical reaction |
