______ are constantly moving in cloud-like areas, we represent their
location with electron shells. - ANSElectrons.
[H+] Acid or Base? - ANSAcid.
[OH-] Acid or Base? - ANSBase.
3 types of isomer? - ANS1. Structural Isomer
2. Cis-trans Isomer
3. Enantiomers
4 types of chemical bonds strongest to weakest. - ANS1. Ionic
2. Covalent
3. Polar
4. Hydrogen
7 characteristics of life? (Properties that we use to define what life is.) -

2. Regulation
3. Energy Processing
4. Evolutionary Adaptation
5. Response to the Environment

6. Reproduction
7. Growth and Development
Acidic solutions have pH values _____ than 7. - ANSLess.
Aldose vs. ketose sugars? - ANSIt is the location of the carbonyl group.
Aldose (C=O) is located at one END of the carbohydrate sugar forming an
aldehyde group.
ketose (C=O) is located at the INTERNAL position of the carbohydrate
sugar forming a ketone group.
Basic solutions have pH values______ than 7. - ANSGreater.
Carbohydrate containing 2 monomers? - ANS...
Characteristics of a compound? - ANSCompounds can be broken back into
elements by chemical reaction, exposure to light, etc. The mass of the
compound is determined by the mass of the elements that made it up.
Compounds cannot be separated by physical means: using magnet,
filtration, etc. When compounds are formed heat and light is given out or
absorbed.
Characteristics of an element? - ANSAtoms cannot be created or
destroyed. The elements can be divided into three categories that have
characteristic properties: metals, nonmetals, and semimetals.
Cis isomer? - ANSThe 2 Xs are on the same side.

Compare cohesion and adhesion. - ANSAdhesion is the attractive force
between unlike substances. Cohesion is an attractive force between
particles of the same kind. Together, adhesion and cohesion enable water
molecules to move upward through narrow tubes against the force of
gravity.
Do all fatty acid tails have to be the same? - ANS...
Does water have a high or low specific of heat? - ANSWater resists
changing its temperature because of its high specific heat. Its high specific
of heat can be traced to hydrogen bonding.
-Heat is absorbed when hydrogen bond break
-Heat is released when hydrogen bond form
Electron distribution diagram for carbon? - ANS...
Forms cloud around the nucleus. - ANSElectrons.
How are the fatty acid tails joined to the glycerol molecule? - ANS...
How do you know the if it is hydrophilic or hydrophobic? - ANSHydrophilic
means water loving. If a substance is hydrophilic, it will dissolve because it
"likes" water. If it is hydrophobic, it will avoid the water and possibly float to
the top (lipids/oils) or it will just stay in the solution but will not dissolve.
