  1. Chapter 2: Chemistry What is matter made up of and how does it react?

  2. What is Matter? • Anything that occupies space and has mass.

  3. Elements • Pure substance made up of only one kind of atom • 90 occur naturally • 25 essential to life: O, C, H, N • 0= 65%, C=18.5%, H=9.5%, N=3.2% • Atom: smallest unit of matter that cannot be broken down by chemical means.

  4. Periodic Table • Atomic Symbol: C = carbon, or Au = gold • Atomic Number: Number of Protons in an Atom. Carbon has ? Gold has ? • Atomic Mass: Number of Protons and Neutrons. • Isotope: Different numbers of Neutrons than Protons Periodic Table

  5. Atoms • Three major parts. • Protons:Positive Charge. Inside Nucleus • Neutrons: Neutral Charge. Inside Nucleus: • Electrons: Negative Charge. Outside Nucleus • 2 electrons in first shell • 8 electrons in the second shell • Eight is Great! Will not React with other atoms. • If the outer shell is not full it will react.

  6. Periodic Table Bonding Combining Chemicals • Compound: When two or more different elements combine. • Hydrogen Bond: H2O • When hydrogen bonds with another atom. Creates a polar molecule. • Covalent bond: CO2 • When atoms on the same side of the chart (same size) bond. Share electrons. • Both Hydrogen and Covalent bonds form molecules, ionic bonds do not. Ionic/ Covalent Bonds

  7. Combining Chemicals continued • Ionic Bonds: When atoms on different sides of the chart (different size) bond. Steal electrons. Create Ions. Make teeth and bones. • Ion: Charged particle either negative or positive. NaCl = table salt • Free Radical: Electrically charged ion with an unpaired electron in its outer shell.

  8. Antioxidants, What are they? • Subatances that inactivate oxygenderived free-radicals • Slows damage from free-radicals • Examples: Selenium, Zinc Beta-carotene, Viamins C & E Free Radicals Acai Berry

  9. Energy and Chemical Reactions • Reactants and Products • Co2 + H20 = H2C03 • Energy Transfer • Exergonic Rxns- Energy exits or released • Endergonic Rxns- Net absorption of energy • Activation energy • Energy needed to start the reaction. Catalysts reduce the energy needed. Often enzymes.

  10. More on Ionic Bonds • Ionic Bonds have 2 parts • Cation: Positively Charge, Ca+2 • Has lost 2 electrons • Anion: Negatively Charged, Cl- • Has Gained to electrons • Electrolytes: Ionic compounds that breaak into cations and anions when dissolved. (Salt)

  11. Solution • A mixture in which one or more substances are evenly distributed in another substance. • Solute: smaller word, smaller thing • Solvent: bigger word, bigger thing

  12. Importance of Water: an inorganic compound The Importance of Water • Polar molecule(it has a negative and positive charge.) • Can dissolve both Ionic and Polar-Covalent molecules • Surface Tension • Cohesion: Sticks to itself. • Adhesion: Like a band-aid. Sticks to stuff • Capillary Action: Climbs up thin tubes

  13. Importance of Water: an inorganic compound • Evaporates: Cooling, Water cycle, etc • Resists Temperature Change: Takes a lot of energy to heat or cool water • Expands as it Freezes.

  14. Ph Scale • Measured on grams of Hydrogen (H+) • pH of 1= 1g of H+, pH of 2= .01g of H+ • Acid: form hydronium ions (H+) • pH of less than 7 ( 1 to 6.9) • Base: form hydroxide ions (OH-) • pH of more than 7 (7.1 to 14) • Acid + Base: salt & water, the solution is neutral with a pH of 7. • NaOH + HCL = H2O + NaCl with a pH of 7

  15. What is a Buffer? • Chemical substances that neutralizes small amounts of an acid or base added to a solution. • Why are these important to your body?

  16. Carbohydrates Organic Compounds: C-H • Carbohydrate: fast energy • made of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen. 1:2:1 proportion. Sacchar = sugar • Monosaccharides:C6H12O6, glucose and fructose • Disaccharides: 2 sacchar’s: Sucrose, table sugar • Polysaccharides: Many sacchar’s: Cellulose (wood) and starch.

  17. Organic Compounds: C-H • Lipids: Fats long term energy storage • Have very few oxygen atoms • Saturated fats: All C bonded to H. Lard, and butter. • Unsaturated fats: C is double bonded to itself. Oil. Lipids

  18. Organic Compounds:All organic compounds contain Carbon. • Protein: the working molecule • 50 or more Amino Acids make a protein • Types of Proteins • Muscle • Enzymes: Control chemical reactions and can be re-used like a key in a lock • Hair Protein

  19. Organic Compounds:All organic compounds contain Carbon. • Nucleic Acids: pg. 37 DNA and RNA • Made of nucleotides: Sugar, Phosphate, and X • ATP: energy cells run on. DNA
