©2015 Science Island What is the atomic number of an element? The number of protons in the nucleus. (Ex:The atomic number of oxygen is 8.) 9 9

©2015 Science Island Carbon usually has 6 protons and 6 neutrons and is called carbon 12. Carbon 13 has an additional neutron and is an isotope of carbon. 10

©2015 Science Island What type of element is used to produce medical images such as these? radioactive isotopes 11

©2015 Science Island The outer, or valence, electrons are involved in forming bonds. 12

©2015 Science Island When electrons are transferred from one atom to another an ionic bond is formed. 13 Science Island

©2015 Science Island If an atom loses an electron, it becomes a positive ion. 14

©2015 Science Island What type of bonds are shown below? Covalent – electron pairs are being shared 15

©2015 Science Island How many covalent bonds can an atom of carbon form? 4 16

©2015 Science Island Slight attractions between molecules that develop between oppositely charged regions of nearby molecules are called van der Waals forces. 17

©2015 Science Island A polar molecule is one in which the charges are unevenly distributed. 18

©2015 Science Island List the reactants and products in this chemical reaction. 19 Science Island reactants products

©2015 Science Island Draw a water molecule and label the negatively charged end and the positively charged end

©2015 Science Island What type of bond is shown between the water molecules? 21 hydrogen bonds

©2015 Science Island Complete the 4 unique properties of water: Cohesion and adhesion High specific heat capacity Lower density of ice Water’s ability to dissolve other substances (universal solvent) 22

©2015 Science Island The attraction between water molecules is an example of cohesion. 23

©2015 Science Island The attraction between water molecules and the sides of a container is an example of adhesion. 24

©2015 Science Island Cohesion between water molecules forms an invisible boundary called surface tension. 25

©2015 Science Island What property of water causes the temperature in coastal areas to be more stable? high specific heat capacity 26 Science Island

©2015 Science Island What property of water makes it possible for fish and other aquatic organisms to survive freezing conditions ? low density of ice 27 Emily Stone / National Science Foundation

©2015 Science Island A uniform mixture of two or more substances is a solution. 28

©2015 Science Island In this photo, what substance is the solvent? water (in the coffee) The solute? sugar 29

©2015 Science Island An aqueous solution in one in which water is the solvent. 30

©2015 Science Island Name the two ions that form when water molecules break apart in a solution. H + hydrogen ions OH - hydroxide ions 31

©2015 Science Island Label the pH scale below: 32 strong acid strong base weak base weak acid neutral Science Island

©2015 Science Island What has been mixed with the water in the first beaker? 33 base

©2015 Science Island What ions will form in the second beaker? 34

©2015 Science Island The bicarbonate ion, HCO 3 - can accept H + ions or donate them to a solution. This helps regulate pH levels, therefore HCO 3 - is a buffer. H 2 CO 3 HCO H + 35
