Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Matter and Composition of Matter Definition: Anything that has mass and occupies space Matter is made up of elements –An element c annot be broken down by ordinary chemical means Atoms - are unique building blocks for each element
3
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Atomic Structure Neutrons No charge, In atomic nucleus Mass = 1 atomic mass unit (amu) Protons Positive charge,In atomic nucleus Mass = 1 amu
4
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Atomic Structure Electrons Negative charge,orbit nucleus Mass = 0 amu Equal in number to protons in atom

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Energy Definition: Capacity to do work or put matter into motion Types of energy: Kinetic: energy associated with motion Potential: stored (inactive) energy Electrical : results from the movement of charged particles (Na+, K+)

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Identifying Elements Atomic number = Mass number = Mass numbers of atoms of an element are not all identical Isotopes = atoms of the same element that differ in the # of neutrons they contain

11
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Atoms of Elements can combine Chemically to form Molecules and Compounds Molecule: two or more atoms bonded together (H 2 or C 6 H 12 O 6 )
12
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Chemical Bonds Electrons occupy up to seven electron shells (energy levels) around nucleus Octet rule: Except for the first shell which is full with two electrons, atoms interact in order to have eight electrons in their outermost energy level (valence shell)
13
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Chemically Inert Elements Stable and unreactive Outermost energy level fully occupied or contains eight electrons
14

15
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Chemically Reactive Elements Valence shell not fully occupied by electrons Tend to gain, lose, or share electrons (form bonds) with other atoms to achieve stability

17
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Ionic Bonds Ions are formed by: Anions (– charge) have gained one or more electrons Cations (+ charge) have lost one or more electrons Attraction of opposite charges results in: An ionic bond

19
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Covalent Bonds Formed by sharing of two or more valence shell electrons Allows each atom to fill its valence shell at least part of the time

23
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Covalent Bonds Sharing of electrons may be equal or unequal Equal sharing produces: Electrically balanced nonpolar molecules
24
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Covalent Bonds Unequal sharing by atoms with different electron-attracting abilities produces: polar covalent bonds H 2 O
25
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Hydrogen Bonds Attractive force between electropositive hydrogen of one molecule and an electronegative atom of another molecule Important in intramolecular bonds, holding a large molecule in a three-dimensional shape

27
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Classes of Compounds Inorganic compounds Do not contain carbon (ex. Water, salts, and many acids and bases) Organic compounds Contain carbon, usually large, covalently bonded (ex’s. carbohydrates, fats, proteins, nucleic acids)
28

29
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Water 60%–80% of the volume of living cells Most important inorganic compound in living organisms because of its properties
30
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Salts Ionic compounds that dissociate into ions in water Ions (electrolytes) conduct electrical currents in solution
31
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Acids and Bases Acids Acids : Proton (H+) donors (release H + in solution) HCl H + + Cl – Bases Bases: Proton acceptors (take up H + from solution) NaOH Na + + OH – pH = measure of the acidity/bascisity of a solution
32
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Acid-Base Concentration Neutral solutions: pH = 7 Contains equal numbers of H + and OH – Acidic solutions pH = 0–6.99 Contains [H + ], pH Basic solutions pH= 7.01–14 Contains [H + ], pH

Carbohydrates Sugars and starches whose building blocks = Three classes Monosaccharides -Simple sugars containing three to seven C atoms (glucose) Disaccharides -Double sugars that are too large to pass through cell membranes Polysaccharides - Three/more simple sugars, e.g., starch and glycogen; not very soluble

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Proteins Building blocks = amino acids Functions of proteins include: acting as enzymes, membrane transport, structure, etc. After amino acids are linked together they often undergo a natural folding process The 3 dimensional shape of a protein is the key to the proteins function (especially enzymes)
47
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Protein Denaturation Proteins can undergo changes in shape due to changes in the bodies temperature, pH, or salt concentration A denatured protein is nonfunctional because its’ active sites are not intact
48
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Enzymes Are proteins that function as biological catalysts Enzymes increase the speed of a reaction Allows for millions of reactions/minute

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) Energy carrying molecule The chemical energy contained in the high energy phosphate bonds can be used to perform cellular work like phosphorylation Phosphorylation is the addition of a phosphate group (PO 4 3- ). This “turns on” the molecule that receives it.
