Difference between adhesion & cohesion
What is
Adhesion is an attraction between different substances(similarly polar substances)
Cohesion is an attraction between substances of the same kind
200
Activation energy
What is the energy needed to get a reaction started
200
A branch of chemistry that deals specifically with the structures, synthesis and reaction of carbon containing compounds.
What is Organic Chemistry
300
Difference between Monosaccharides and Disaccharides?
What is
Monosaccharides are single sugar molecules
Disaccharides are two sugar molecules linked together.
300
Functions of Nucleic Acids
What is to store and transmit genetic information
300
Difference between ph and the ph scale
What is
Ph is a measure of the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution
Ph scale measures the H+(hydrogen) concentration in solutions and displays them.
300
Van der waals forces
What is Inter-molecular forces of attraction
300
Process in which water is added to a molecule
What is Hydrolysis
400
Difference between saturated and unsaturated lipids.
What is
Saturated lipids have each Carbon atom in a chain linked to another Carbon atom by a single bond.
Unsaturated lipids have at least one Carbon-Carbon double bond in the chain.
400
Importance of a protein's shape
What is defines the protein's main job and allows it to function properly.
400
Difference between acids & bases
What is
Acids have a higher concentration of H+(hydrogen) ions than that of pure water
Bases have a higher concentration of OH-(Hydroxide) ions than pure water
400
The substance acted upon by an enzyme
What is a substrate
400
Something that speeds up a reaction
What is a catalyst
500
Difference between Polysaccharides and Polyunsaturated lipids.
What is
Polysaccharides are carbohydrates that are large molecules formed from Monosaccharides.
Polyunsaturated lipids are lipids whose fatty acid chains have more than one double Carbon bond.
500
The two types of Nucleic Acids
What is Ribonucleic acid (RNA) & deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)

Difference between Ionic bonds & Covalent bonds
What is
Ionic bonds are bonds between two ions formed through the transfer of one or more electrons.
Covalent bonds are bonds that are formed when two or more atoms share electrons to form a molecule.
