pH Scale: a measurement system use to indicate the concentration of H+ ions in a solution (0-14 scale, 7 is water and neutral)
pH Scale: a measurement system use to indicate the concentration of H+ ions in a solution (0-14 scale, 7 is water and neutral)
Acids: Solutions containing higher H+ ions, pH value below a 7
pH Scale: a measurement system use to indicate the concentration of H+ ions in a solution (0-14 scale, 7 is water and neutral)
Acids: Solutions containing higher H+ ions, pH value below a 7
Bases: Solution containing lower H+ ions, pH value above 7
Electrolytes: Substances that release ions in water
Electrolytes: Substances that release ions in water
Two Types:
Electrolytes: Substances that release ions in water
Two Types: Acid: release hydrogen ions
(H+) in water
Electrolytes: Substances that release ions in water
Two Types: Acid: release hydrogen ions
(H+) in water
Base: release hydroxide ions (OH-) in water
Electrolytes: Substances that release ions in water
Two Types: Acid: release hydrogen ions (H+)
in water
Base: release hydroxide ions (OH-) in water
Both Ion concentrations (H+, OH-) in body fluid can greatly affect chemical reactions that control certain physiological functions, such as blood pressure and breathing rate
Macromolecules
Very large molecules consisting of many smaller structural units linked together
Organic: compounds that contain Carbon (Carbon Dioxide is an exception)
Inorganic: All other compounds
Macromolecules
Monomer: Single molecule that binds together with other molecules to form a compound
Macromolecules
Monomer: Single molecule that binds together with other molecules to form a compound
Polymer: A complex compound made from many single molecules (monomers)
