Biology Quiz 2/3
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Any substances that occupies space and has mass | Matter |
| Smallest unit of matter | Atom |
| Element A + Element B | Molecule |
| Where is the atomic number of an element on the Periodic table? | Top left |
| Largest subatomic particles in an Atom | Protons, Electrons, Neutrons |
| The number of Protons plus the number of Neutrons determines | An atoms mass number. |
| Type of molecule that contains two or more different types of atoms. (ie: Water H20) | Compound |
| Type of covalent bond that forms between two atoms with different/shared equally electronegativites. | Polar Covalent Bond |
| Type of covalent bond that forms between two atoms of the same element or between different elements that share electrons equally. | Nonpolar Covalent Bond |
| The electrical attraction that forms between ions with opposite charges. | Ionic Bond |
| Weak interactions between two polar molecules | Hydroen Bonds |
| Hyodrophilic | Hydro=Water Philic=Loving |
| Hydrophobic | Hydro=Water Phobic=Fearing |
| Can be solid, liquid or gas | WATER |
| A substance capable of dissolving other molecules | Solvent |
| A substance that is dissolved in a liquid | Solute |
| Homogeneous mixture in which water acts as the solvent, dissolving another substance, known as the solute. | Aqueous Solution |
| Substance stays balanced | Homeostasis |
| Measure of concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) in a solution | pH |
| Higher hydrogen ions mean | More acidic (<7) |
| A substance taht increases the H+ concentration in a solution by having hydrogen atoms dissociate | Acid |
| A substance that decreases the H+ concentration in a solution by providing OH- or other negatively charged ions which reduce their concentration in the solution. | Base |
| Below 7 on pH scale | Acidic |
| Above 7 on pH scale | Basic (weak) |
| Maintain pH balance - absorbtion | Buffer |
| Mass of an electron | Zero |
| Atom with a positive charge = | More protons than electrons |
| Why is water considered a Polar Molecule? | Oxygen end of the molecule has a slight negative charge, and the hydrogen end has a slight positive charge. |
| Does not require electronic transfer | Hydrogen Bond |
| The atomic number of an atom or element is | the number of protons in the nucleus |
| True or False: In a bond between Sodium and Chlorine, Chlorine donates an electron. | False |
| In the following reaction, what type of bond is holding the two atoms together? K+CI → K* + CI- → KCI | Ionic Bond |
| Water molecules have one oxygen atom that is more electronegative than the two hydrogen atoms bound to it. As a result, which type of bonding holds water molecules together? | Polar Covalent Bonding |
| True or False: In a Covalent Bond atoms share electrons? | True |
| The pH of urine ranges between 5.5 to 6.9, indicating a | weak acidic solution |
| Relative to a pH of 6, a pH of 4 has a | 100 times higher H+ concentration |
| The pH of bile ranges between 7.8 to 8.6, indicating a | weak basic (alkaline) solution |
| Expected pH for blood | 7.4 |
| Consider a mixture of blood, which contains sodium chloride, the sodium chloride is the: Solute, Solvent or Solution? | Solute |
| When NaCI dissolves in water, NaCI is considered the | Solute |
| True or False: A pH value of 6 indicates a solution containing a weak acid? | True |
| An individual water molecule contains ___ atoms and enters into ___ hydrogen bonds with other water molecules? | Three ; Four |
| Water molecules attract one another via: | Hydrogen Bonds |
