BIOCHEM EXAM
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Weakest to strongest forced | 1. London 2. Dip-Dip 3. Hydrogen 4. Ion-Dipole 5. Ionic attraction |
| Boyle's Law | As pressure increases, volume decreases |
| Charle's Law | As volume increases, temperature increases |
| Gay-Lussac's Law | As pressure increases, temperature increases |
| Stronger intermolecular force= | higher boiling point means there is more energy needed to break down these forces |
| polar vs non polar | polar= far away on the periodic table (polar opposites) nonpolar= close on the periodic table |
| London forces | non polar and polar ALL COMPOUNDS HAVE THIS |
| Dipole-Dipole | Polar! Creates a slight charge |
| Ion-Dipole | Ion + a POLAR molecule |
| Ionic Attraction | Oppositely Charged Ions Na-+Cl- Li-+F- K+ I- |
| Hydrogen Bonding | HF, HO, HN |
| in terms of their attractive forces, explain why fats are solids but oils are liquids under normal conditions, despite the fact that both are triglycerides | the large number of cis double bonds in the hydrocarbon tails of oils prevents them from interacting with each other as much as the SAT tails of the fats. More interactions means that the tails move more slowly, becoming more like a solid, forming a fat. |
| FATS | SOLID at room temperature KINKY chains SATURATED with hydrogens |
| OILS | LIQUID at room temperature |
| Why are melting points for oil lower than fats? | The lower melting point of oils is related to the higher degree of unsaturation. |
| Fewer attractive forces= | a lower melting point |
| Amphipathic Compound | Polar + Nonpolar sections in 1 molecule |
| 6 Strong acids | 1.HClOv4 2. Hv2SOv4 3. HI 4. HBR 5. HCl 6. HNOv3 |
| 4 Strong bases | 1. LiOh 2. KOH 3. NaOh 4. Ca (OH)v2 |
