  1. Basic Chemistry

  2. What is matter? • Matter is anything that takes up space and has mass. • Solid • Liquid • Gas

  3. What is Energy? • Energy is the ability to do work or to put matter into motion. • Kinetic energy- Movement • Potential energy- Stored energy All living things are built of matter. Therefore in order to grow and function, they need a continuous supply of energy.

  4. In your groups try and list as many forms of energy as you can? Also, give a list of any sources of energy.

  5. Forms of Energy • Chemical energy • Energy stored in bonds of chemical substances • All body activities are done by chemical energy

  6. Forms of Energy • Electrical energy results from the movement of charged particles. • In the body, an electrical current is generated when charged particles move across cell membrane.

  7. Forms of Energy • Mechanical energy • Directly involved with moving matter • Muscles in your body relax and contract to cause movement.

  8. Forms of Energy • Radiant energy travels in waves. • X-rays, infrared, visible light, radio, ultraviolet • Light energy stimulates retinas of your eyes to produce vision. • Ultraviolet waves stimulate our bodies to produce vitamin D.

  9. In your groups, discuss any circumstances where one energy form is converted into another.

  10. Energy Form Conversions • Electricity from socket is converted to light by lamp. • Chemical energy of ATP is converted to electricity of nervous system or mechanical energy of muscles.

  11. Can energy be destroyed or created? • No, energy cannot be created or destroyed.

  12. Energy Form Conversions • EFC are quite inefficient because some energy is always lost to the environment as heat. • Not lost but unusable

  13. Atomic Structure, Molecules, and Compounds

  14. The Atom • The nucleus of an atom is made of protons and neutrons. • Proton is a tiny particle that has mass and a positive electrical charge • Neutron is a particle with approximately the same mass as a proton but with no charge. • Electron (e-) has little mass but has a negative electric charge.

  15. Draw and Label the structure of any atom.

  16. Atomic Symbol • On the periodic table, all elements are identified by one, two, or three letter abbreviations.

  17. What does the atomic number represent? • The atomic number represents the number of protons found in that element’s nucleus. • Hydrogen atomic number = 1. • It has one proton in its nucleus

  18. What is the mass number? • The total number of protons and neutrons is equal to the mass number. • Electrons are too small to contribute to mass number.

  19. What are isotopes? • Isotopes are atoms of the same element have different mass numbers. • Different number of neutrons. • Cl-35 and Cl-37

  20. What are the four most common elements of the human body? • Oxygen 65% • Carbon 18.5% • Hydrogen 9.5% • Nitrogen 3.2% • Other 3.9%

  21. Ions • Atoms that gain or lose electrons have a net chemical charge and is called an ion. • Na+ • Mg+2 • Si +4 • O-2

  22. What is a molecule? • Molecules are formed when two or more atoms combine chemically. H (atom) + H (atom) → H2 (molecule)

  23. What is a Compound? • A Compound forms when two or more different atoms bind to form a molecule. 4H + C = CH4 (methane) Compounds always have properties quite different from the atoms making them.

  24. Chemical Bonds and Chemical Reactions

  25. Filling energy levels • Electrons are distributed over one or more energy levels in a predictable pattern. • 1st inner most energy levels holds 2 electrons. • Each energy level afterwards holds 8 electrons.

  26. What are valence electrons? • Valence electrons are found on the outermost energy levels and determine the chemical behavior of the different elements.

  27. What is an ionic bond? • Ionic bonds form when electrons are completely transferred from one atom to another. Example: • Na(+) + Cl(-) → NaCl

  28. What is a covalent bond? • Covalent bonds occur when molecules share electrons. For example: Hydrogen atom + Hydrogen atom → Molecule of Hydrogen gas

  29. What is a hydrogen bond? • Hydrogen bonds are weak bonds that form between polar hydrogen compounds. • Water’s high surface tension • Allows water strider to walk on water • Help maintain structure of proteins

  30. Hydrogen Bonding

  31. What is a chemical reaction? • Chemical reactions involve the making or breaking of bonds between atoms.

  32. What is a Synthesis Reaction? • Synthesis Reaction occur when two or more atoms or molecules combine to form a larger, more complex molecule. • Energy-Absorbing Reactions • Energy absorbed in bonds • Important for growth or repair of worn-out or damaged tissue A + B → AB

  33. What is a Decomposition Reaction? • Decomposition Reactions occur when a molecule is broken down into smaller molecules. • Chemical energy is released as bonds break. • Digestion of food into their building blocks AB → A + B

  34. What is an Exchange Reaction? • Exchange reactions occur when there is a switch made between molecule parts and different molecules are made. • Involves both synthesis and decomposition reactions • Occurs between ATP and glucose to produce ADP and glucose-phosphate effectively trapping the glucose fuel molecule into the cell. AB + C → AC + B or AB + CD → AD + CB
