Ph and buffers
A lower number on the PH scale means that you are more acidic or basic
It is more acidic
What property means that it takes water a lot of energy to change
High heat capacity
what do organic compounds need to contain
carbon and hydrogen
What are the building blocks of lipids/fats
fatty acids
what is the building block of proteins
amino acids
What does it mean to be more basic
What makes water a good solvent
It is polar
what is the ratio and compound of monosaccharides
1:2:1 ratio C6H12O6
What does unsaturated fats have that saturated fats don't have
double bonds between carbons
what determines the structure of proteins
the organization of amino acids
what is the neutral number on the PH scale
7
Adhesion is where water sticks to other substances while cohesion is where water sticks to weak water caused bonds
What are the 3 disaccharides
Sucrose(table sugar), Lactose(milk sugar), Maltose(grain sugar)
True or false: Saturated fats are liquid at room temp
False
What bond is formed between 2 amino acids
Peptide bond
What is the job of buffers
how do the hydrogen bonds deal with water
The slight negative on oxygen is attracted to the slight positive charge on hydrogen
What 2 polysaccharides are plant based
Starch and cellulose
What are trans fats
solidified unsaturated fats
What is the difference between endothermic and exothermic reactions
Exothermic reactions absorb less energy and feel warm
When there is a basic compound, what do you have a higher concentration of, Hydrogen ions or Hydroxide ions
Hydroxide ions
what is the difference between hydrolysis and dehydration synthesis
hydrolysis splits water to break large compounds (Polymers) into smaller ones (Monomers) and dehydration synthesis is where you remove water to build polymers from monomers.
where are carbs made
cellular respiration in the mitochondria
True or false: Fats (fatty acids) have a
1:2:very little oxygen ratio.
What is the substrate
