Carbon Compounds 2:3

2. Carbon – Atomic number is 6….
A. Can forms up to 4 bonds with other elements or itself.
1. Can form straight, ringed, or branched chains.
2. Bonds can be single, double, triple or quadruple carbon bonds

4. B. Organic Chemistry
1. All living things that contain the carbon element, are considered (ORGANIC).
Exception – Carbon Dioxide does contain carbon and is a NON – LIVING thing.
Inorganic – are NON-living things that do not contain carbon.

5. 3. Functional groups – a cluster of atoms that influences or alters the chemical properties of the molecule they compose.
It is the structural building block that determines the characteristic and function of the compound.

7. A. Built from smaller molecules
4. Macromolecules –very large molecules, made up of 4 groups, carbohydrates, triglycerides (lipids), proteins and nucleic acids (DNA and RNA)
A. Built from smaller molecules
called monomers, through a process called polymerization.
B. Monomers bond together to form polymers
1. Silly putty is a polymer.
C. Macromolecules – formed from the building of polymers.

8. Reactions
Condensation reaction (dehydration)– in this type of reaction 2 monomers combine, losing 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom producing a water molecule.
Hydrolysis reaction – occurs when polymers break apart splitting a water molecule, restoring the 2 hydrogen and one oxygen back on to the compound.

10. Made up of Adenosine and 3 phosphate,
5. Energy Currency
A. Adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP)
Made up of Adenosine and 3 phosphate,
A-P-P-P “Energy molecule” of the cell.
B. Life processes requires energy.
1. Energy is available to all cells in the form ATP. Energy is released when a phosphate breaks off, forming Adenosine Di-phosphate,
A – P – P (ADP)
