Cards

Term
Matter
Definition
occupies space
solid, liquid, gas
Term
What are the two types of energy
Definition
kinetic and potential
Term
What are the four forms of energy and which is most common?
Definition
Chemical is most common- stored in chemical bonds, concentration differences?
electrical- charged particle; ions
mechanical- directly moving object; pushing box on floor
radiant- travels in waves; light
thermal-molecular movement; heat
Term
Atomic number
Definition
# of protons of nucleus
Term
Mass number
Definition
sum of the masses of protons and neutrons
Term
Isotopes
Definition
changing mass numbers due to different number of neutrons
used in nuclear medicine- decay of radioactive particle; marker for activity
Term
True or false, all neutral atoms are stable
Definition
False
Term
PET SCAN
Definition
Positron emission tomography; nuclear medicine test' harnesses energy when positrons collide with electrons; give off gamma rays

use of isotopes
more active tissue is the more radioactive isotopes will concentrate in the tissue
Term
Elements
Definition
atoms are buildling blocks of elements: collections of same type of atoms together form elements
Term
Molecule
Definition
2 or more atoms, same/different elements. If elements are same then have molecules of that element
Term
compound
Definition
2 or more DIFFERENT ELEMENTS
Term
mixture
Definition
2 or more substances combine together
Term
solutions
Definition
homoenous; contain matter and energy
Term
solute
Definition
smaller quantity: ions, proteins, carbohydrates, etc.

no enzymes needed to create/destroy solutions
Term
Concentrations of solutions
Definition
percent molarity osmolarity/osmolality
Term
Avogadros number
Definition
6.02 X 10^23= 1 mole of substance
Term
molecular weight
Definition
sum of atomic weights in grams= 1 mole of substance
Term
Osmolarity (L)/osmolality (kg)
Definition
# of particles w/in a solution the same value as molarity (osmolality)
important in controlling movement of fluids b/t body comparments. differences in osmolality b/t compartments serves as energy
osmolarity changes with temperature because of volume...(layers=temperature)
Term
glucose when dissolved in water doesn't dissociate so molarity of glucose is same as osmolarity; HOWEvER NaCl dissolved in water dissociates so osmolarity is doubled
Definition
Term
colloids
Definition
not as homogenous; solute is large but dissolvable, particles scatter light, jello, cell cytosol fluid
Term
suspensions
Definition
mixtures where the solute will settle out unless you repeatedly shake it sand in water, blood cells in plasma
Term
True or false, if valence shell is full atom is not reactive
Definition
true
Term
Chemical bonds
Definition
combinations of atoms via electron sharing, often requires energy input to cause reaction to occur
Term
electron shell
Definition
electron exist in different regions around nucleus; each shell is different level of energy
Term
valence shell
Definition
outermost shell; electron can be reactive
form chemical bond with one another

closer to the nucleus=lower energy
if valence is not full then atom is reactive
Term
ionic bonds
Definition
one atom DONATES electron to electron shell of another atom
anion and cation
Term
covalent bonds
Definition
electron sharing b/t 2 atoms
non polar molecules- equal sharing CH4
Polar molecules- unequal sharing but not ionic H2O
Term
Non polar covalent bonds
Definition
CH4
Term
polar covalent bond
Definition
unequeal sharing but not ionic H20
Term
Hydrogen bonds
Definition
attraction b/t slightly charged moelcules such as water
Term
Patterns of chemical reactions
Definition
synthesis, decomposition, exchange, oxidation reduction, exergonic, endergonic
Term
Synthesis
Definition
A+B -> AB two components for complex component
Term
decomposition
Definition
AB-> A + B complex component and break down into simple component
Term
exchange
Definition
AB+C--> AC + B exchange 1 component for another
Term
oxidation reduction
Definition
electron donor is oxidized
electron recipient is reduced
important in energy transfer
ionic bond formation is a type of redox reaction
Term
exergonic
Definition
give off energy; breakdown of glucose molecule
Term
endergonic
Definition
absorb energy formation of ATP
Term
reversibility of chemical reactions
Definition
A+B -> C
A+B<-> C
Term
Effectors of chemical reactions
Definition
temperature
particle size (bigger particle slower reaction, easier the target)
concentration (more solute faster reaction)
catalysts
Term
Higher the temperature the faster rate of reaction, True or false
Definition
true
Term
The larger the particle the faster the reaction and the harder targert is
True or false
Definition
false
Term
The greater ratio of solute and solvent the faster the rate of reaction
true or false
Definition
true
Term
Catalyst use
Definition
enzymes to quicken the rate of reaction w/o becoming part of the product.
