  5. Atoms that have _________________ have an_____________ andare called__________ They are writtenwith a + or –next to theirsymbol

  6. Atoms/ions important for living things Used to make bigger molecules Ions = electrically charged atoms • ____________ • ____________ • ____________ • ____________ • ____________ • ____________ • ____________ • ____________ • ____________ • ____________ • ____________

  7. Hydrogen Ions (H+) http://www.guardiantrader.com/images/ph_scale.gif The number of ____ ions determines how _______ a solution will be. More H+ = more acidic

  8. ATOMS CAN ______TOGETHER TO _____________________ Ex: Joining 2 HYDROGENatoms with 1 OXYGEN atom makes one ______ molecule. A _______________ tells _________ of and __________ atoms are in a molecule EX: ________ http://www.lsbu.ac.uk/water/molecule.html

  9. VERY, VERY LARGE MOLECULES = ____________________ EXAMPLE: Insulin = C254 H377 N65 O76 S6 Image from: http://www.biology.arizona.edu/biochemistry/tutorials/chemistry/page2.html

  10. MOLECULES CAN BE SHOWN IN DIFFERENT WAYS Water molecule: http://www.lsbu.ac.uk/water/molecule.html H2O Other Images by: Riedell

  11. Image from: http://www.estrellamountain.edu/faculty/farabee/biobk/BioBookCHEM2.html Polar Molecules Because of the location of electrons in molecules, some molecules have an _________ pattern of ____________________ More ___ on one side; More ___ on the other EX: water More about this in Chapter 7

  12. EX: PHOSPHOLIPIDS The same molecule can have bothPOLAR and NON-POLARparts _________ __________ More about this in Chapter 7 Image by Riedell

  13. WHAT HOLDS MOLECULES TOGETHER? Molecules are _____________by the ________ between ______________ regions of nearby molecules = _____________________ http://www.examstutor.com/chemistry/resources/studyroom/bonding/intermolecular_forces/2_van_de_waals_forces.php

  14. HYDROGEN BONDS Bonds that form between the_________ charged _____________ in one molecule and a __________ charged _________ in a nearby molecule are called _____________________ EX: water molecules are held together by Hydrogen bonds Hydrogen bond animation Images from: http://www.estrellamountain.edu/faculty/farabee/biobk/BioBookCHEM2.html

  15. _________ is the most important atom found in living things It can join to _______ other atoms at same time It can form ______ or _____ so it can make lots of different kinds of molecules. Images from: http://www.school-for-champions.com/science/chemhydrocarbon.htm

  20. A chemical equation tells what happens in a chemical reaction when molecules interact. NaOH + HCl → NaCl + H20 _______________ ________________ Molecules that react Molecules that are produced → Image by RIedell

  21. REMEMBER:ALL the chemical reactions that happen in cells = _____________ Chemical reactions can _____ molecules together. Chemical reactions can ______ molecules apart.

  22. One way to join molecules to make a bigger molecule is by ________ a _______ molecule to make a bond. = ____________________ reaction See an animation http://science.nhmccd.edu/BIOL/dehydrat/dehydrat.html

  23. DEHYDRATION SYNTHESIS“dehydration” “synthesis” =_____________ _____________ http://io.uwinnipeg.ca/~simmons/macromol/sld003.htm http://www.usd116.org/apalla/biology/unit3/notes/3notes1.htm

  24. _________________ is a ________________ reaction in whichmany _____________ thatare ________ join to make a bigger molecule These small units arecalled ______________ The big molecule theymake is called a _____________ Image by RIedell

  25. EXAMPLE: _________ subunits (A,T,G,C) join together to make a _____ molecule http://www.freewebs.com/genetics37/genetics101.htm

  26. Chemical reactions can also ________ molecules apart. ______________ = kind of chemical reaction in which a molecule is broken apart by addinga________ molecule. “_____” = water “_____” = break apart See an animation http://science.nhmccd.edu/BIOL/dehydrat/dehydrat.html

  27. HYDROLYSIS is the _________ of DEHYDRATION SYNTHESIS. Adding a water molecule breaks the bond. http://www.usd116.org/apalla/biology/unit3/notes/3notes1.htm

  28. http://student.ccbcmd.edu/biotutorials/energy/adpan.html ATP is the energy molecule used by all cells. Breaking a bond using hydrolysis is the way ENERGY is released. More on this is Chapters 7, 8,& 9
