Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) the sensory and motor neurons that connect the central nervous system (CNS)
to the rest of the body. voluntary movement of skeletal muscles, blood vessels,
internal organs, glands.
Pauli's Exclusion principle No more than two electrons of opposite spin can occupy a given orbital.
NaOH and HCl amounts needed for titration They are both monoprotic, so the amounts needed for titration to reach
equilibrium would be equal
Smaller aromatic rings less stable bc of torsional and angle strain
Venturi effect - When the area where a liquid flows decreases, then the velocity increases (to
maintain continuity) and the hydrostatic pressure decreases (to conserve
mechanical energy).
- Velocity in a constricted area will increase and its static pressure will
decrease
- Bernoulii's principle: when a fluid speeds up, its pressure decreases
- Oxygen pressure is the sum of the oxygen static pressure P and the oxygen
flow pressure ρv2/2.
- In the area of the mask openings, Pair = P + ρv2/2, thus Pair > P (Remember: Air
Vent).P1 + 1/2 ρ v12 + ρ g h1 = P2 + 1/2 ρ v22 + ρ g h2...
Solubility of particles in a solution affects whether the particles can be dissolved/formed when the pH changes
Purines (name, structure, location)? Adenine (only one without Oxygen) and Guanine, Found in DNA and ATP, Have
two rings, Remember: PURe As Gold

-al suffix means there is an aldehyde (O=C carbonyl center)
Strongest absorption spectra Has to both absorb over a long length of spectra and have a tall height(amount
of absorption). A tall height or amount is more important that a long length
across.
Acidity increases when there are more electron withdrawing groups such as Chlorine (large EN).
Strongest acid is also the most stable. If there are two very electronegative
atoms, they prefer to be farther from each other.
Rate of flow is directly proportional to pressure
Myelin sheath (function, make up, affect on - Insulating layer, or sheath that forms around nerves, including those in the
capacitance) brain and spinal cord.
- Made of protein and fatty substances.
- It speeds up action potential transmission.
- Protects the axon and speeds the signal down the axon. Increases speed of
conduction in the axon.
- Where a membrane is myelinated, the capacitance is decreased because the
myelin sheath increases the charge seperation.
How do stronger intermolecular forces affect surface greater surface tension
tension?
surface tension - Force that acts on the surface of a liquid and that tends to minimize the area
of the surface
- Result of cohesion between the same type of molecules on the surface of the
fluid
- Allows the surface of a liquid to support light things, such as a leaf or an
insect, which would otherwise sink.
Higher Boiling point implies what bonds, branching, higher molecular weight, stronger bonds, and less branching
and weight?
Work equation work = force x distance x cos of angle (W=Fd).
If it is horizontal (90 degrees), then the cos angle is 0.
Velocity of a ball before impact on the ground is the velocity of the ball when it is released, the height from which the ball was
affected by: released, and the mass of the Earth. (mass of the ball doesn't affect it)
A) Velocity of the ball when released
B) Height from which the ball was released
C) Mass of the Earth
D) Mass of the ball
