matter vs energy
matter is the stuff in the universe occupying space, and has mass--energy puts matter into motion and has no mass or space
-
kinetic energy
when energy is doing work /moving objects
-
potential energy
inactive or stored energy
-
chemical energy in the human body (how is it used?)
stored in bonds of chemical substances, bonds broken, potential energy is released and becomes kinetic
-
electrical energy in the human body (how is it used?)
movement of charged particles, when changed particles move across all membranes
-
mechanical energy in the human body (how is it used?)
energy directly involved with moving matter-(ex. moving legs)
-
radiant energy in the human body (how is it used?)
travels in waves,(ex. electromagnetic spectrum)
-
Protons
p+ protons have a positive charge
-
neutrons
n0 neutrons have a neutral charge
-
electrons
e- electrons have a negative charge
-
the number of protons and electrons is always?
B) equal
-
atomic number
the number of protons
-
atomic mass
- the sum of protons and neutrons so
- (ex. He=2+2=4)
-
Isotopes
same number of protons and electrons but a different number of neutrons
-
Radioisotopes
heavier isotopes of certain atoms are unstable and tend to decompose to become more stable
-
ionic
electrons transfered from one atom to the other COMPLETELY
-
-
-
synthesis reaction
A + B --> AB
-
decomposition reactions
AB ---> A + B
-
exchange reactions
- AB+C ----> AC+B or
- AB+CD --> DB + CA
-
Inorganic Compounds water
absorbs and releases alot of heat before temp. changes, polar, chemical reactivity digests and breaks down foods, coushioning cerebiospinal fluid
-
Inorganic compounds Salts
electrolytes substances that conduct an electrical current in a solution
-
ph scale
- acidic ----------------basic
- 0 --------------------14
-
monosacharides
one sugar , glucose, fructose, deoxyribose, galactose
-
disaccarides
2 simple sugars sucrose lactose maltose
-
polysacharides
large insoluable many sugar, starch glycogen
-
lipids
most abundant in body steroids phospholipids and triglycerides
-
catalyst
increases the rate of reaction w/o becomng part of the product or being changed itself
