32. Van der Waals Forces A slight attraction that develops between the oppositely charged regions of nearby molecules due to unequal sharing of electrons

35. Section 2: Properties of Water

36. Objectives Why are water molecules polar? What are acidic solutions? What are basic solutions?

37. The Big Idea Much of our planet is covered in water Water is necessary for life to exist If life exists on other planets, there most likely is water present Water has many properties that make life possible

38. Polarity (-) (+) The oxygen atom has a stronger attraction for electrons

39. Hydrogen Bonds Because of waters partial charges, they can attract each other and create hydrogen bonds Not as strong as covalent or ionic bonds Waters ability to create multiple hydrogen bonds gives it many special properties

54. Base A compound that produces OH - (hydroxide) ions in solution

55. Buffers Weak acids or bases that can react with strong acids or bases to prevent sharp, sudden pH changes

56. Section 3: Carbon Compounds

57. Objective What are the functions of each group of organic compounds?

58. Most of the compounds that make up living things contain carbon. In fact, carbon makes up the basic structure, or “backbone,” of these compounds. Each atom of carbon has four electrons in its outer energy level, which makes it possible for each carbon atom to form four bonds with other atoms. As a result, carbon atoms can form long chains. A huge number of different carbon compounds exist. Each compound has a different structure. For example, carbon chains can be straight or branching. Also, other kinds of atoms can be attached to the carbon chain. Section 2-3 Interest Grabber Life’s backbone

59. MethaneAcetyleneButadieneBenzene Isooctane

60. Macromolecules “giant molecules” Formed by a process called polymerization

61. Monomers Smaller units

62. Polymers Linked up monomers

63. Carbohydrates Compounds made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms usually in a ratio of 1:2:1 Main source of energy The monomers of starch are sugars

64. Single sugar molecules are called monosaccharides The large macromolecules formed from monosaccharides are known as polysaccharides

65. Starch Glucose

66. Lipids Made mostly from carbon and hydrogen atoms Used to store energy

67. Lipid Glycerol Fatty Acids

68. Proteins Macromolecules that contain nitrogen as well as carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen Proteins are polymers of molecules called amino acids

69. Amino Acids General structureAlanineSerine Carboxyl group

75. Section 4: Chemical Reactions and Enzymes

76. Objectives What happens to chemical bonds during chemical reactions? How do energy changes affect whether a chemical reaction will occur? Why are enzymes important to living things?

77. The Big Idea Living things are made up of chemical compounds Everything that happens to an organism is based on chemical reactions

78. Chemical Reactions A process that changes or transforms one set of chemicals into another

79. Reactants Elements or compounds that enter into a reaction

80. Products Elements or compounds produced by a chemical reaction

81. Example Reaction: Getting rid of carbon dioxide In the blood In the lungs CO 2 + H 2 0  H 2 CO 3 (carbonic acid) H 2 CO 3  CO 2 + H 2 O Released as you breathe

82. Energy in reactions Energy-Absorbing Reaction Energy-Releasing Reaction Products Activation energy Activation energy Reactants

84. Activation Energy The energy that is needed to get a reaction started

86. Enzymes Some chemical reactions are too slow or have activation energies that are too high to make them practical for living tissue These chemical reactions are made possible by catalysts

87. Catalyst Substance that speeds up the rate of chemical reactions Work by lowering a reactions activation energy

88. Enzyme Biological catalysts Speed up reactions in cells Very specific Named for the reaction it catylzes Enzyme names always end in - ase Enzymes can be reused as long as they are not denatured

89. Reaction pathway without enzyme Activation energy without enzyme Activation energy with enzyme Reaction pathway with enzyme Reactants Products

90. Substrates The reactants of enzyme catalyzed reactions The active site of the enzyme and the substrate have complementary shapes Fit like a lock and key
