Organic Compounds
Contain C, H, O, and N.
What are proteins?
Compounds that share one or more outer electrons have this type of binding.
What is covalent bonding?
Composed of more than one element so they are made of more than one type of atom chemically combined.
What are compounds?
The charge of atoms?
Neutral
Atoms of an element that have the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons.
What are isotopes?
Contain C, H, and O with twice as much H as O.
What are carbohydrates?
A transfer of electrons from one atom to another is this type of bonding
What is ionic bonding?
Smallest whole particle of an element?
What is an atom?
Atoms that have gained or lost one or more electrons.
Ions
The number of protons in an atom is this number.
What is the atomic number?
Fat molecules, steroids, and phospholipids are examples of these.
What are lipids?
An example of a common compound formed by ionic bonding
What is table salt (NaCl)?

What are elements?
The charge of chlorine when it takes an electron away from sodium to make Na Cl?
negative
The charge of protons
positive (+)
Single-stranded nucleic acid
What is RNA?
Water is this because it has a slight - charge on one end and a slight + charge on the other end.
What is polar?
