CELLULAR CHEM 1
A GROUPING OF ELECTRONS IN AN ATOM ACCORDING TO ENERGY
SHELL
APPROXIMATELY THE NUMBER OF PROTONS AND NEUTRONS IN THE NUCLEUS OF AN ATOM
ATOMIC WEIGHT
SMALLEST COMPLETE UNIT OF AN ELEMENT
ATOM
THE NUMBER OF PROTONS IN AN ELEMENT
ATOMIC NUMBER
ANYTHING THAT HAS WEIGHT AND TAKES UP SPACES
MATTER
THESE CONSTANTLY MOVE AROUND THE NUCLEUS AND HAVE A NEGATIVE CHARGE
ELECTRONS
COMPOUNDS THAT INCLUDE CARBON AND HYDROGEN ATOMS
EX. CARBOHYDRATES, LIPIDS, PROTEINS, NUCLEIC ACIDS
ORGANIC
"THINK POSITIVE!!" THESE ARE A "RELATIVELY LARGE" PARTICLE THAT CAN BE FOUND IN THE NUCLEUS OF AN ATOM
PROTONS
ALL OTHER COMPOUNDS
INORGANIC
HAVE A "NEUTRAL" CHARGE. LOCATED IN THE NUCLEUS OF AN ATOM.
NEUTRONS
WHEN TWO OR MORE ATOMS BOND
MOLECULE
ELEMENTS WITH A DIFFERENT ATOMIC WEIGHT
ISOTOPE
QUANTITATIVE MEASURE OF THE ACIDITY OR BASICITY OF LIQUID SOLUTIONS
PH SCALE
PARTICLE THAT RESULTS WHEN AN ATOM OR MOLECULE BECOMES ELECTRONICALLY CHARGED
ION
WHEN ATOMS OF DIFFERENT ELEMENTS BOND
COMPOUNDS
AN ATTRACTIVE FORCE THAT HOLDS ATOMS TOGETHER
CHEMICAL BONDS
CHEMICAL BONDS THAT RESULTS FROM THE ATTRACTION OF TWO OPPOSITELY-CHARGED IONS
IONIC BONDS
MINERALS IN YOUR BLOOD AND OTHER BODY FLUIDS THAT CARRY AN ELECTRIC CHARGE
ELECTROLYTES
BOND FORMED BY ELECTRON SHARING BETWEEN ATOMS
COVALENT BOND
WEAK BOND BETWEEN A HYDROGEN ATOM AND AN ATOM OF OXYGEN OR NITROGEN
HYDROGEN BOND
ELECTROLYTES THAT RELEASE HYDROGEN IONS IN WATER
ACID
THE BRANCH OF SCIENCE THAT CONSIDERS THE COMPOSITION OF MATTER AND HOW THE COMPOSITION CHANGES
CHEMISTRY
WHEN ELECTROLYTES RELEASES IONS THAT BONDS WITH HYDROGEN
BASES
REPRESENTS THE NUMBERS AND TYPES OF ATOMS IN A MOLECULE
MOLECULAR FORMULA
CHEMICAL THAT RESIST PH CHANGES
