Biology Quiz 2/3

QuestionAnswer
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

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
