Chemistry Basics Element- made of only one kind of atom. The number of protons determines what the element is called. In an atom, the number of protons and electrons are equal. The same element will always have a set number of protons. The number of neutrons may vary. These are called isotopes. Electrons may also vary. These are called ions.
2
Chemistry Basics The ion is determined by the number of electrons in the outer shell or orbit. These are called valence electrons. If an atom gains electrons, it becomes negatively charged. If an atom loses electrons, it becomes positively charged.
3
Chemistry Basics Bonds- joining two or more atoms together Ionic bond- formed by joining two ions together Covalent bond- formed by the sharing of electrons Example: NaCl Example: C 6 H 12 O 6

Carbohydrates
7
Carbohydrates: Made of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen (CHO) Covalent bonds For every 1 oxygen atom, there are 2 hydrogen atoms 4 types of Carbohydrates: Sugar Starch/Glycogen Cellulose Chitin
8
Carbohydrates: Sugar
9
Carbohydrates: Sugars Sugar 1) Monosaccharides: simple sugars that may contain 5 or 6 carbon atoms. Examples: Glucose, Fructose, Galactose These simple sugars are made in plant cells. They have the same empirical or molecular formula: C 6 H 12 O 6. Their structural formulas are different.
11
Monosaccharide: Examples Monosaccharides Glucose Galactose Fructose
12
Monosaccharides Structural formulas allow you to visualize the molecule. Notice, even though these molecules all have the same number of each atom, they look different. Holt, Modern Biology pentagon
13
Sugar: Type 2) Disaccharides DisaccharidesDi = two saccharide =sugar Two simple sugars form one molecule of a double sugar. One molecule of water is given off. This is called a dehydration synthesis reaction or a condensation reaction. De = take away hydro = water (from mono’s) for synthesis = putting together (building or making something) Condensation: the formation of water
15
Sugar: Disaccharides Disaccharides Maltose Sucrose Lactose
16
Glucose + glucose maltose + water C 6 H 12 O 6 + C 6 H 12 O 6 C 12 H 22 O 11 + H 2 O Dehydration synthesis- take away water to put a molecule together Holt, Modern Biology Disaccharides Maltose is found in germinating seeds like barley.
17
Disaccharides Glucose + fructose sucrose + water C 6 H 12 O 6 + C 6 H 12 O 6 C 12 H 22 O 11 + H 2 O Sucrose is common table sugar. It is found in sugar cane and sugar beets. Dehydration synthesis- take away water to put a molecule together

19
Sugar: Disaccharides Lactose is milk sugar, found in the milk of mammals. C 6 H 12 O 6 + C 6 H 12 O 6 C 12 H 22 O 11 + H 2 O Glucose + galactose lactose + water Dehydration synthesis- take away water to put a molecule together
21
Nutrition: Digestion When we eat carbohydrates, the molecules are broken apart to form simple sugars. Where does the digestion of carb’s begin? What is the name of the enzyme? In addition to enzymes, what else is needed for this process to occur? The process is called hydrolysis: hydro=water, lysis=break down or apart

26
Polysaccharides Polysaccharides are large molecules formed by joining monosaccharides. Poly = many Starch/Glycogen Cellulose Chiten
27
How to Make a Polysaccharide Slap together three or more mono’s / Dehydration Synthesis
28
Polysaccharide: Starch Starch is a polysaccharide made up of glucose connected in branched chains. Each time a glucose molecule is added, one water molecule is removed (dehydration synthesis). There may be 500 to many thousands of glucose molecules joined to form a starch molecule. Examples: potatoes,corn, rice, wheat, and other grains.
29
Polysaccharide: Glycogen Glycogen is animal starch. It is made of highly branched chains of glucose molecules. It is made in the liver and stored in the liver and muscles. When extra energy is needed, the liver converts glycogen into glucose.
30
Polysaccharide: Glycogen (From an animal)
32
Polysaccharide: Cellulose Cellulose is a large polysaccharide made of chains of glucose molecules. It may contain as many as 3,000 glucose molecules. Cellulose forms a strong fibrous structure in plant cell walls. It gives the walls support.
33
Polysaccharide: Cellulose
34
We do not break down cellulose. For us, it is fiber. Cows use intestinal bacteria to break it down for them. This is an example of a mutualistic relationship.
35
Polysaccharide: Chitin Chitin is a polysaccharide found in the exoskeleton (outer skeleton) of insects, crabs, shrimps, and lobsters and in the internal structures of other invertebrates and in the cell walls of fungi. It has a nitrogen group added to the glucose.

Disaccharides: How are they put together? Glucose + glucose maltose + water C 6 H 12 O 6 + C 6 H 12 O 6 C 12 H 22 O 11 + H 2 O Dehydration synthesis- take away water to put a molecule together Glucose + fructose sucrose + water Glucose + galactose lactose + water

Dehydration Synthesis: What does it look like? Prentice Hall, Biology
44
Disaccharides: How do we digest them? Hydrolysis. Water is added to maltose in order to break it down into two glucose molecules. Of course, enzymes would control this process. Holt, Modern Biology
