How many essential amino acids are there? How many non-essential amino acids are there?

What is 9 and 11?

100

What is more dangerous to touch with your hands, an acid or a base?

What is it depends on the strength of the acid or the base?

100

What is the equation for activation energy?

What is the peak - reactants?

How is the --> in a chemical equation different from an = sign?

What is the arrows also shows the direction of the chemical reaction?

200

What sugar would galactase break down?

What is galactose?

*DAILY DOUBLE*

What is percent hydrogen or potential hydrogen?

200

Can activation energy ever be negative? If yes, please give an example.

What is activation energy can never be negative?

200

What do enzymes lower (products, reactants, and/or activation energy)?

What is only the activation energy?

300

What does the BIG number in the chemical equation tell us (i.e. 36)?

What is the big number tells us how many compounds there are?

300

What does denature mean?

What is to take away from its natural state?

300

Why is hand soap (pH of 10) okay for us to touch and use but bleach (pH of 12) dangerous for us to touch?

What is because the pH scale increases exponentially with each number; therefore, bleach is 100x more basic than hand soap?

300

What type of reaction is this? Show your work.

Products = 21

Reactants = 22

Activation energy = 10

What is P - R = a negative number which means the reaction is an exothermic reaction?

21 - 22 = -1

300

Why do our bodies get warm when we have a fever? What is it a sign of and why is it bad if the fever gets too high? Be specific.

What is it is a sign of a bacterial infection and really high fevers are bad because they can denature the proteins found within our bodies?

400

What does the smaller number, or the subscript, tell us about the chemical (i.e. 3)?

What is it tells us that within each compound, there are 3 oxygens?

400

How many times stronger is your stomach acid (pH of 2) than water (pH of 7)?

What is 100,000x stronger than water?

400

What type of reaction is this? Show your work.

Products = 9

Reactants = 4

Activation energy = 13

What is P - R = a positive number which means the reaction is an endothermic reaction?

9 - 4 = 5

Why does Mr. Horgan like pop quizzes?

What is because he believes you should be studying daily to always be learning new material?

500

How many oxygens are in the following chemical?

What is 36?

500

What are the ways that proteins can get denatured?

What are heat and exposure to acids or bases?

500

Why does water have a pH of 7?

What is water is exactly 1 hydroxyl (OH) and 1 hydrogen combined together. It is exactly 50/50 acid & base.

500

If the following are:

Peak = 23

Products = 20

Reactants = 15

Then what is the activation energy?

What is AE = P - R which would mean that the activation energy equals 23 - 15 = 8.

What does disassociate mean?

What is break into smaller pieces?
