  1. Anatomy & Physiology Basic ChemistryChapter 2

  2. Matter and Energy • Matter—anything that occupies space and has mass (weight) • Energy—the ability to do work • Chemical • Electrical • Mechanical • Radiant

  3. Composition of Matter • Elements—fundamental units of matter • 96% of the body is made from four elements • Carbon (C) • Oxygen (O) • Hydrogen (H) • Nitrogen (N) • Atoms—building blocks of elements

  4. Atomic Structure • Nucleus • Protons (p+) • Neutrons (n0) • Outside of nucleus • Electrons (e-)

  5. Atomic Structure of Smallest Atoms

  6. Identifying Elements • Atomic number—equal to the number of protons that the atom contains • Atomic mass number—sum of the protons and neutrons

  7. Isotopes and Atomic Weight • Isotopes • Have the same number of protons • Vary in number of neutrons

  8. Isotopes and Atomic Weight • Atomic weight • Close to mass number of most abundant isotope • Atomic weight reflects natural isotope variation

  9. Radioactivity • Radioisotope • Heavy isotope • Tends to be unstable • Decomposes to more stable isotope • Radioactivity—process of spontaneous atomic decay

  10. Molecules and Compounds • Molecule—two or more atoms combined chemically with covalent bonds • Compound—two or more different atoms combined chemically

  11. Chemical Reactions • Atoms are united by chemical bonds • Atoms dissociate from other atoms when chemical bonds are broken

  12. Electrons and Bonding • Electrons occupy energy levels called electron shells • Electrons closest to the nucleus are most strongly attracted • Each shell has distinct properties • The number of electrons has an upper limit • Shells closest to the nucleus fill first

  13. Electrons and Bonding • Bonding involves interactions between electrons in the outer shell (valence shell) • Full valence shells do not form bonds

  14. Inert Elements • Atoms are stable (inert) when the outermost shell is complete • How to fill the atom’s shells • Shell 1 can hold a maximum of 2 electrons • Shell 2 can hold a maximum of 8 electrons • Shell 3 can hold a maximum of 18 electrons • Last suborbital in 3rd shell holds 8

  15. Inert Elements • Atoms will gain, lose, or share electrons to complete their outermost orbitals and reach a stable state • Rule of eights • Atoms are considered stable when their outermost orbital has 8 electrons • The exception to this rule of eights is Shell 1, which can only hold 2 electrons

  16. Inert Elements

  17. Reactive Elements • Valence shells are not full and are unstable • Tend to gain, lose, or share electrons • Allow for bond formation, which produces stable valence

  18. Chemical Bonds • Ionic bonds • Form when electrons are completely transferred from one atom to another • Ions • Charged particles • Anions are negative • Cations are positive • Either donate or accept electrons

  19. Ionic Bonds + – Cl Na Cl Na Sodium atom (Na)(11p+; 12n0; 11e–) Chlorine atom (Cl)(17p+; 18n0; 17e–) Sodium ion (Na+) Chloride ion (Cl–) Sodium chloride (NaCl)

  20. Chemical Bonds • Covalent bonds • Atoms become stable through shared electrons • Single covalent bonds share one pair of electrons • Double covalent bonds share two pairs of electrons

  21. Examples of Covalent Bonds

  22. Examples of Covalent Bonds

  23. Examples of Covalent Bonds

  24. Polarity • Covalently bonded molecules • Some are non-polar • Electrically neutral as a molecule • Some are polar • Have a positive and negative side

  25. Chemical Bonds • Hydrogen bonds • Weak chemical bonds • Hydrogen is attracted to the negative portion of polar molecule • Provides attraction between molecules

  26. Hydrogen Bonds

  27. Patterns of Chemical Reactions • Synthesis reaction (A + BAB) • Atoms or molecules combine • Energy is absorbed for bond formation • Decomposition reaction (ABA + B) • Molecule is broken down • Chemical energy is released

  28. Synthesis and Decomposition Reactions

  29. Synthesis and Decomposition Reactions

  30. Patterns of Chemical Reactions • Exchange reaction (AB + CAC + B) • Involves both synthesis and decomposition reactions • Switch is made between molecule parts and different molecules are made
