Elements and Life • Define element: • Compound: • SPONCH CaK • ( ONCH 96% ) • Trace elements (Fe, I) • anemia, goiter—iodized salt, sea weed • Crops too—nitrogen, calcium
Atoms and Molecules • Quick review: electrons, neutrons, protons, orbitals, nucleus • Atomic number • Atomic mass (mass number) • Dalton
Electron orbitals 1s 2s 2p (x, y, z)
Polar Covalent Fig 2.11Bonds * electronegativity
