Question
Answer
name the subatomic particle that has a mass of on and no charge:   neutron  
🗑
name the subatomic particle that has a mass of one and a positive charge:   proton  
🗑
name the subatomic particle that has a mass of zero and a negative charge:   electron  
🗑
define atom:   basic unit of matter  
🗑
define molecule:   two or more atoms linked by chemical bonds  
🗑
define covalent bond:   where an electron is shared between two atoms  
🗑
define ion:   an atom with a positive of negative charge  
🗑
define ionic bond:   transfer of electrons from one atom to another, build up of charge; opposites attract  
🗑
define hydrogen bond:   weak bond between molecules  
🗑
define synthesis:   small molecules linked into larger ones by chemical bonds  
🗑
define decomposition:   larger molecule, breakdown of chemical bonds, formation of smaller molecules  
🗑
define isotope/radioisotope:   element that has a different mass # than usual  
🗑
express the following concentration is scientific notation and as a pH: 0.0001M   1x10exp-5M pH=5  
🗑
express the following concentration is scientific notation and as a pH: 0.0000000000001M   1x10exp-13M pH=13  
🗑
express the following concentration is scientific notation and as a pH: 0.01M   1x10exp0 pH=0  
🗑
the pH scale measure the __________________ of a solution   H+ concentration  
🗑
what pH range(s) include acids:   <7  
🗑
what range(s) includes bases:   >7  
🗑
what range(s) includes neutral:   7  
🗑
if a substance has a pH of 9, then what is its [H+] concentration?   10exp-9M  
🗑
if a substance has a pH of 3, then what is its [H+] concentration?   10exp-9M  
🗑
when a small amount of acid or base is added to a buffered solution what happens to the pH? why?   it stays approx the same. buffer takes up and releases H+  
🗑
when a small amount of acid is added to an unbuffered solution what happens to the pH? why?   it goes down. acids add H+ to a solution  
🗑
which of these will change the pH of a solution: HCL or NaCl? why?   HCl. because it is an acid  
🗑
organic molecules contain:   carbon  
🗑
which chemical reactions break down large molecules?   decomposition  
🗑
which chemical reactions use small molecules to build large ones:   synthesis  
🗑

🗑
define peptide:   short chain of amino acids linked by peptide bonds  
🗑
define polypeptide:   long chain of amino acids  
🗑
define protein:   two or more poly peptides linked by weak bonds  
🗑
define peptide bond:   covalent bond  
🗑
classify and give a role for glucose:   carbohydrate (monosaccharide); universal cellular fuel  
🗑
classify and give a role for triglyceride:   lipid; stores energy  
🗑
classify and give a role for DNA:   nucleic acid; genetic material  
🗑
classify and give a role for ATP:   nucleic acid (nucleotide); carries energy  
🗑
classify and give a role for cholesterol:   lipid; membrane component  
🗑
