Basic Chemistry
Across
- 2. Heterogeneous mixtures with large,often visible solutes that tend to settle out
- 4. When large carbohydrate or protein molecules are synthesized from smaller molecules, a water molecule is removed for every bond formed
- 7. Have a bitter taste, feel slippery, and are proton acceptors
- 9. These help proteins to achieve their functional three dimensional structure
- 18. Reactions that contain more potential energy in their chemical bonds than did the reactants
- 20. Reaction whee water is mostly used to breakdown the chemical bonds that exists between a particular substance
- 22. These are insoluble in water
- 24. Covalently bonded molecules that contain carbon
- 25. Occurs due to the movement of charged particles
- 27. A group of molecules that includes sugars and starches,represent 1-2% of cell mass
- 29. These are negatively charged
- 30. These are positively charged
- 34. The smallest particle of a chemical substance
- 36. anything that occupies space and has mass
- 38. diverse lipids chiefly de- rived from a 20-carbon fatty acid found in all cell membranes.
- 40. Contain ionic bonds, lack carbon and resist decomposition
- 42. Another name for acids
- 44. The capacity to do work, or to put matter into motion
- 45. Atoms that have the same atomic number but different mass number.
- 48. Equal to the number of protons in its nucleus and is written as a subscript to the left of it’s atomic symbol
- 49. Substances that conduct an electrical current in solution
Down
- 1. Homeostasis of acid-base balance that is carefully regulated by the kidney and lungs and by chemical systems
- 3. Large, complex molecules containing from 100 to over 10,000 amino acids
- 5. Occurs when acids and bases are mixed. They react with each other in displacement reactions to form water and salt
- 6. The sharing of electrons
- 8. Bonds that are both and broken
- 10. Occurs whenever chemical bonds are formed, rearranged, or broken
- 11. The form stored in the bonds of chemical substances
- 12. A mixture of microscopic particles that are suspended into another medium
- 13. A particle made up of several atoms that are bonded together
- 14. Homogeneous mixtures of components that may be gases, liquids or solids
- 15. When atoms or molecules combine to form a large, more complex molecule
- 16. Chainlike molecules made of many similar or repeating units,which are joined together by dehydration synthesis
- 17. have a sour taste, can react with many metals, and “burn” a hole in your rug
- 19. Compact, spherical proteins that have at least tertiary structure
- 21. Energy in action
- 23. Reactions that release energy
- 26. Substances composed of two or more components physically intermixed
- 28. Composes 10-30% of cell mass and is the basic. structural material of the body
- 31. The building blocks of proteins
- 32. A pure substance made of the same type of molecules which are made up of several types of atoms
- 33. Energy that travels in waves
- 35. Extended and strand like proteins
- 37. These have no charge
- 39. Occurs when a molecule is broken down into smaller molecules
- 41. Stored energy
- 43. Energy directly involved in moving matter
- 46. An ionic compound containing cations and anions other than hydroxyl ion
- 47. The transferring of electrons
- 50. Globular proteins that act as biological catalysts
