How the stuff of life is transported, allocated, and incorporated Biogeochemistry How the stuff of life is transported, allocated, and incorporated

CO2 Carbon Carbon is the basis for life Why is carbon special? Litter Duff Soil ALL Life! CO2 Plankton CaCO3 Hydrosphere Atmosphere Biosphere Carbon is the basis for life Why is carbon special? Bonding Abundance The carbon cycle

Oxygen Most abundant element of earth’s crust Properties Respiration Electronegativity Oxidation – REDOX reactions Respiration

Hydrogen Most abundant element in the universe – big bang origins Water Carbon chains pH Proton pump

Compounds and Atomic Structures Compounds are specific combinations of elements Atoms are the smallest indivisible units of elements Protons (+) determine the element Neutrons add to the weight, determine isotope Electrons bond

Radioactive Isotopes Radioactive isotopes contain unstable nuclei – energy released Bond of neighboring compounds can be broken Damage to DNA Cancer Birth Defects Radioactive Tracers

Electron Arrangement Energy levels Valence Shell Unpaired electrons Bonding

Ionic Bonds Strongest bond Transfer of electron(s) Change of total charge

Covalent Bonds Sharing of electron(s) Double bond Valence (bonding) capacity

Polarity s
