Atomic Structure: Nucleus Proton / positive charge / plus sign • Atom: • The smallest particle of an element that still retains all the properties of that element • Nucleus: • protons: p+ • neutrons: n0 Neutron / neutral charge/ no sign
Atomic Structure & Terminology • Atomic Number: • # of protons (p+) • Atomic Mass Number: • # of protons (p+) + # of neutrons (n0) • Energy Levels (Shells): • electrons: e- • orbitals: regions where electrons orbit the nucleus e- in “highest “energy levels have the most energy
Compounds • Compound: • A pure substance made up of atoms of 2 or more elements in a fixed ratio • Chemical Reactions: • Elements combine in ways that cause their atoms to become stable • Chemical bonds are broken, atoms are rearranged, & new attachments are formed
Why do atoms undergo chemical reactions? • Atoms that have unfilled outer energy levels form bonds with other atoms to become stable • H & He need 2 e- to fill outer shell • C, O, N, P, S, Na, Ca, K, Cl, I, etc need 8 e-to fill outer shell
Chemical Bonding • Covalent Bond: • Sharingof 1 or more pairs of electrons between atoms • Strong chemical bond: valence shells merge
Compounds & Molecules • Kinds of Compounds: • Ionic compounds – ionic bonding • Molecular compounds – covalent bonding • Molecule: Requires covalent bonding • The simplest part of a substance that retains all the properties of that substance & exists in a free state
Chemical Bonding • Ionic Bond: • Transferof 1 or 2 e- from one atom to another forming ions • Cations are +; anions are - • Oppositely charged ions attract one another • Weak chemical bond: valence shells do not merge

Molecules & Compounds Not all compounds are molecules Not all molecules are compounds
Types of Compounds • Molecular compounds • Covalently bonded atoms Ex: H2O (water) is a molecular compound consisting of H & O in a 2:1 ratio • Ionic compounds • Ionically bonded atoms Ex: NaCl (table salt) is an ionic compound consisting of Na & Cl in a 1:1 ratio

Learning Objectives • List the 3 states of matter, and explain how matter can change state • Describe how energy changes are involved in chemical reactions • Explain how enzymes affect chemical reactions in organisms • Explain what a redox reaction is
Energy & Matter • Energy: • The ability to do work or cause change • Forms of energy: • Radiant energy (light) • Thermal energy (heat) • Chemical energy (stored & usable) • Electrical energy (stored & usable) • Mechanical energy • One form of energy can be converted to another form • Free Energy: • The energy in a system available to do work • Biological systems are OPENsystems
Energy Conversion Stored Chemical Energy Radiant Energy < Heat > Usable Chemical Energy of ATP
Free Energy Change in position Movement cross membrane Chemical breakdown
Energy in Living Things Kinds of Work Done by Cells
States of Matter • All atoms & molecules in any substance are in constant motion • Exception – absolute zero = 0 oK or -273 oC • The rate of motion determines the state of matter: • Solid • Liquid • Gas
Three States of MatterCoexist on Earth Gas Liquid Solid
Phases (States)of Matter • Solids: • Little particle motion – vibrate in place w/ strong mutual attraction • Fixed volume & shape • Liquids: • Moderate particle motion – move freely w/ moderate mutual attraction • Fixed volume taking the shape of the container • Gases: • Rapid particle motion – move rapidly w/ little or no mutual attraction • Unfixed volume filling the container they occupy
Phase Changes in Matter Phase changes occur when thermal energy isadded toorremoved fromthe substance in its current phase.
Energy& Chemical Reactions • Reactants: • Combine to form products • Left side of typical chemical equation • Products: • Formed from reactants • Right side of typical chemical equation
Chemical Reaction Notation A + B AB reactant + reactant --yields product CO2 + H2O H2CO3
Reversible Reactions A + BAB CO2 + H2OH2CO3 Equilibrium: the rate of formation of AB from A + B is equal to the rate of formation of A + B from AB.
Energy& Chemical Reactions • Exergonic Reactions: • Release energy • Can occur spontaneously • Decomposition: breakdown of more complex molecules into simpler ones • Endergonic Reactions: • Absorb energy • Do NOT occur spontaneously • Synthesis: formation of more complex molecules from simpler ones
Energy Transfer:Exergonic Reaction C6H12O6+6O2 (sugar) (oxygen gas) 6CO2+ 6H2O+Energy(carbon (water)(ATP) dioxide) Example: Cellular Respiration
Energy Transfer:Endergonic Reaction 6CO2+ 6H2O+Energy (carbon (water)(from sunlight) dioxide) C6H12O6+6O2 (sugar) (oxygen gas) Example: Photosynthesis
Activation Energy • Activation Energy: • Amount of energy needed to begin any chemical reaction • Necessary for both exergonic & endergonic reactions • Used to break bonds in the reactants so that new bonds can form to make the products
Reaction Energy Profile Activation energy
Activation Energy Barrier & Enzymes • Catalyst: • Chemical substances that reduce the amount of activation energy needed for a reaction to occur • Enzymes: • Catalyst proteins in living things • Specific for particular chemical reactions
