1. Unit 3: The Chemistry of Life Ch. 2 (pg. 30), Ch. 9 (pg. 185-186), Ch. 28 (pg. 586-587) The study of matter & the changes it undergoes

2. What is an Element? a substance made of only one type of atom Ex. = carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, sulfur

3. The 6 Most Abundant Elements in Biological Matter

4. the smallest part of an element What are Atoms?

5. What Makes Up an Atom? Subatomic particle Locationchargesymbol ProtonNucleus (center of atom)positive p+p+ NeutronNucleus (center of atom)neutral (no charge) n0n0 ElectronOrbit around nucleus (located in energy levels) negative e-e-

6. 16 Using the Periodic Table of the Elements # of protons protons + neutrons also # of electrons bigger of the 2 #s to figure out # of neutrons… atomic mass – atomic number = neutrons

7. Electrons & Energy Levels Electrons in energy levels (“shells”) around nucleus 1 st shell  up to 2 electrons other shells  up to 8 electrons Hydrogen Oxygen How many more electrons can the 3 rd shell hold?

8. What Affects the Bonding of Atoms? the # of outer (valence) level electrons If outer level is: not full, atom is unstable will bond with electrons from other atom(s) to fill outer level full, atom is stable won’t bond

9. Atoms held together by shared electrons What causes a Covalent Bond?

10. What causes an Ionic Bond? Atoms held together when they lose or gain electrons Atoms & Bonding Interactive

11. Combinations of two or more atoms bonded together Ex. = O 2, H 2 0, C 6 H 12 O 6, NaCl, HCl What are Molecules/Compounds?

12. Simple Structure H 2 0, 0 2, NH 3, CO 2 Inorganic even though it contains carbon an exception to the rule Biological Chemistry: Inorganic Molecules

13. Biological Chemistry: Organic Molecules Contain: carbon! many atoms

14. Biological Chemistry: Monomers & Polymers Monomer = small molecule Polymer = large molecule made of repeated monomers
