What is Avogadro's number?
Gases that have perfectly elastic collisions, whose particles are in constant random motion, and who molecules are nonpolar
What are ideal gases?
The two parts of a solution
What are solute and solvent?
The reaction between an acid and a base; results in water and a salt
What is a neutralization reaction?
What is anabolism?
What is molar mass?
What are elastic collisions?
The diffusion of water through a semipermeable membrane
What is osmosis?
A solution that is resistant to large changes in pH
What is a buffer?
The level of protein structure that involves multiple peptide strands working together in a 3D structure
What is 40?
Different structural variations of the same chemical element
What are allotropes?
1 atm; 273.15K
What is STP?
The amount of energy absorbed or released when a solution is formed
What is heat of solution?
A substance that can act as either an acid or a base
What is amphoteric?
A biological catalyst
What is an enzyme?
The weakest intermolecular force
What are dispersion forces?
The value of "R" when pressure is in atm
What is 0.0821?
A substance that, when dissolved in water, will conduct electricity well
What is an electrolyte?
The species formed when an acid donates its hydrogen ion
Heat or strong pH levels causing a protein to lose it shape, and thus its function
What is denaturation?
The process of a gas turning directly into a solid without first becoming a liquid
What is deposition?
What is PV = nRT?
A measure of a solution's concentration; expressed as the amount of solute divided by the mass of the solvent
What is molality?
Describes an acid as a hydrogen donor and a base as a hydrogen acceptor
A chemical reaction between a triglyceride and a strong base; used to make soap
What is saponification?
