What is Polar Covalent
Carbon has this many valence electrons.
What is Four
The four macromolecules
What are carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids
The monomer of nucleic acids
What are nucleotides
Bonds between water molecules that leads to water's many emergent properties.
What is Hydrogen Bonds
Organic chemistry is the study of?
