Unsaturated
Nuclear reactions involve changes in this part of an atom.
Nucleus
A hydrocarbon with only single bonds is called this.
Alkane
A protein which serves as a biological catalyst in a reaction is called this.
Enzyme
The author of the short novel that rising juniors hope they don't have to read over summer break!
C. S. Lewis, author of Until We Have Faces
Chemists measure concentration with this term, defined as moles of solute per liter of solvent.
Molarity
This kind of radioactive decay involves the release of helium nuclei from large unstable atoms.
Alpha Decay
Carboxylic acids have a carbon double bonded to this element as part of their functional group
Oxygen
These are the monomer units which comprise long nucleic acid biomolecules.
Nucleotides
This short French dude liked to start wars in Europe but was eventually defeated in a battle at Waterloo.
Napoleon Bonaparte
This measurement is defined as the negative log of the concentration of hydronium ion in a solution.
pH
A neutron turns into a proton through the release of a high-energy electron in this kind of radioactive decay.
Beta negative decay
The hydrocarbon 3-octene would have one of these after the third carbon in the chain.
Double bond
Two simple sugars linked together by condensation polymerization is called this.
Disaccharide
Donald Trump's middle name.
John
This is the pOH of a solution that has a pH of 5.
pOH = 9
Nuclear reactors and nuclear bombs both use this process to split the nuclei of large uranium atoms into smaller atoms.
Nuclear Fission
Organic compounds with a hydroxl (OH) functional group are called this.
Alcohols
This kind of biomolecule has the function of providing quick energy to animal cells and forms the structure of many plants.
Carbohydrate
The amount of wood a woodchuck would chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood.
As much would as he could chuck, if a woodchuck could chuck wood.
The hydronium concentration of a solution with a pH of 7.
1x10-7
It would take this many half-lives for a radioactive sample to go from 100g to 6.25g.
4 half-lives
This is a four-carbon chain isomer of hexane.
2,2-butane or 2,3-butane
These are the monomers of biomolecules which serve in oxygen transport and cell-to-cell hormone messinging within the human body.
Amino acids
The student most likely to do their best on the chemistry final.
Each of you if you study! Good Luck!
