Mrs. Williams Biology Honors Semester One
2
Section 1: Atoms, Ions, and Molecules Atoms are the smallest unit of an element Three particles Protons (+ charge) Electrons (- charge) Neutrons (no charge) Nucleus contains protons and neutrons
3
Elements Elements are pure substances consisting of only one type of atom Cannot be broken down further! Listed in the periodic table Atoms of each element differ by the # of protons
4
Isotopes Isotopes are atoms of an element with different number of neutrons Atomic # is the same; mass # is different Most have same chemical properties
5
Radioactive Isotopes Radioactive isotopes have unstable nuclei that break down at a constant rate over time Uses for radioactive isotopes Dating of rocks and fossils Treating cancer Killing bacteria on food Trace movements of substances within the body
6
Ions and Bonding Ions are formed when an atom gains or loses an electron Ionic bonds vs. covalent bonds Read on pages 38 & 39 about ionic and covalent bonding to yourself Compare and contrast the two bonding types with your table partner
7
Bonding IonicCovalent Forms through the electrical force between oppositely charged ions Ex: NaCl Sodium (Na+), a positively- charged ion is attracted to chlorine (Cl-), a negatively- charged ion. Forms when atoms share a pair of electrons Generally very strong bonds Depending on the # of electrons, two atoms may form several covalent bonds Ex: CO 2 - Fig. 2.4
8
Chemical Compounds A chemical compound is a substance of two or more elements in definite proportions Different chemical properties than the original elements Compound composition given in chemical formula For example: NaCl and H 2 O
9
Chemical Reactions Chemical reactions are the breaking and forming of chemical bonds Reactants- original elements or compounds Products- ending elements or compounds
10
Section 2: Properties of Water Water – H 2 O Polar molecule Has a region with a slight positive charge and a region with a slight negative charge (page 40 - fig. 2.5) Hydrogen bond An attraction between a slightly positive hydrogen atom and a slightly negative atom (often O or N)
11
Properties Related to Hydrogen Bonds – page 41 1. High Specific Heat Water resists changes in temp; very important in cells! 2.Cohesion The attraction among molecules of a substance Caused by hydrogen bonds Produces surface tension 3. Adhesion Attraction among molecules of different substances
12
Water is a Solvent! Page 42 Solution Mixture of substances that is the same throughout (a homogenous mixture) Has two parts Solvent – the substance that is present in the greater amount and that dissolves another substance Solute – a substance that dissolves in a solvent
13
Acids and Bases Some compounds break up into ions (an atom that has gained or lost electrons) when they dissolve in water Acids release a proton (H + ) when they dissolve in water Bases remove H + ions from a solution A solution’s acidity is measured by the pH scale (page 43, figure 2.9)
14
Dissociation of Water
15
pH Scale Scale measuring amount of H + (really H 3 O + ) Ranges from 0-14 Below 7- acids Higher H + Above 7- bases Higher OH - 7- Neutral Equal numbers of both
16
Origin Statement – August 7 th In your notebook, answer the following WITHOUT USING NOTES: 1. Describe an atom. List all parts and their charges. 2. How do we determine atomic number? 3. What is an isotope? 4. Describe the 3 properties of hydrogen bonding. 5. Acids have a pH between ? and ? Bases have a pH between ? and ?
17
Section 3: Carbon-based molecules Carbon-based compounds A monomer is a basic repeating building block A polymer is many monomers connected together Draw a visual representation of a monomer and polymer!
18
Dehydration Synthesis Building larger molecules from smaller ones (requires energy) Monomer → Polymer
19
Hydrolysis Break down large molecules into smaller ones (releases energy) Polymer → Monomer
20
Carbon Compounds Condensation/Synthesis Monomer Polymer Hydrolysis
21
Carbohydrates Made of C, H, and O in a 1:2:1 ratio Monomers Monosaccharide Examples: glucose, fructose, galactose Dimers Disaccharides Examples: sucrose and lactose Polymers Polysaccharides Examples: starch, glycogen, chitin, and cellulose
22

23
Carbohydrates (Starch)
24

25
Carbohydrates (Chitin and Cellulose) Chitin Cellulose
26
Uses for Carbohydrates Provide energy for body functions Used to build nucleic acids Other structural functions
27
Tests for Carbohydrates Benedict’s Test for Simple sugars Iodine Test for Complex Sugars
28
Lipids (Fats & Oils) Made of C, H, and O (phospholipids have P) Triglyceride 1 Glycerol, 3 Fatty Acid Chains Examples: Fats found in adipose tissue Phospholipid 1 Glycerol, 2 Fatty Acid Chains Example: Molecules found in cell membrane Steroid 4 Carbon ring structure Example: cholesterol, testosterone, estrogen, and other hormones
29
Lipids
32

33
Uses for Lipids Energy source Padding and insulation Structural Hormones Water-proofing
34
Tests for Lipids Sudan IV Test Sudan IV turns red in the presence of lipids Newspaper Test Lipids leave a translucent spot on newspaper/brown paper bags (think fast food bags)
35
Protein Made of C, H, O, S, and N Monomer Amino acids (20 found in the body; 12 made by you…the others come from foods you eat) Polymer Polypeptide Amino acids are held together by a peptide bond
36
Amino Acid Structure H C R COOH H3N+H3N+
37
Amino Acid Structure
38
Polypeptide H3N+H3N+ R COOH H C H3N+H3N+ R H C H3N+H3N+ R H C H3N+H3N+ R H C
39
Uses for Proteins Structural – form bones and muscles Enzymes - speed up rates of reactions Transport – Help bring substances into or out of cells Antibodies – Helps fight diseases/immunity
40
Test for Proteins Biuret Test – purple or pink indicates protein
41
Energy of Reactions Reaction Types Energy Releasing Reaction is spontaneous (not fast, necessarily) Activation energy – energy need to get the reaction started At the end of the reaction, energy is released into the environment Energy Absorbing Rxn is not spontaneous Activation energy- energy needed to get the rxn started At end of the rxn, energy is absorbed from environment
42
Energy Reaction Diagrams
43
Enzymes - IntroIntro Catalyst for the reaction (speeds it up) Substrate (reactant) enters the active site of the enzyme to form an enzyme-substrate complex After the rxn, the product leaves The enzyme remains unchanged
44
Enzymes
45
Action of Enzymes Speeds up the reaction by lowering activation energy
46
Enzyme Reaction Rates Rates can be affected by: Temperature pH Amount of enzyme
47
Nucleic Acids Made of C, H, O, N and P Monomer- Nucleotide DNA Sugar - Deoxyribose Nitrogen Bases – A, T, G, C RNA Sugar- Ribose Nitrogen Bases- A, U, G, C Phosphate Sugar Nitrogen Base
48
DNA Nucleotide = Phosphate = Deoxyribose Purines Pyrimidines = Adenine = Guanine = Thymine = Cytosine
