2.1 Chemical Elements
Matter:
Anything that has mass and occupies space
Matter exists in three states: solid, liquid, and gas

A. Elements
Can't be broken down into simpler substances with
diff properties by ordinary means
6 are basic to life: CHNOPS
95% of the whole organism
B. Atoms
Smallest unit of an element
Atoms composed of subatomic particles:
Protons - positive charge; found in the
nucleus
Neutrons - no charge;found in the nucleus
Electrons - negative charge; found in
electron shell
Atoms contain specific numbers of protons,
neutrons, and electrons.

Electrons and Energy
Atoms normally have as many electrons as
protons
Opposite charges balance leaving atom
neutral
Electrons are attracted to the positive
nucleus
Revolve around nucleus in orbitals
Can be pushed into higher orbitals with energy
Release that energy when they fall back to lower
orbital
Different energy levels referred to as electron
shells

The Octet Rule for Distribution of Electrons
Bohr models show electron shells as
concentric circles around nucleus
Each shell has two or more electron orbitals
Innermost shell has two orbitals
Others have 8 or multiples thereof
The outermost electron shell determines the
reactivity of the element
If 3 or less – Tendency to donate electrons
If 5 or more – Tendency to receive electrons

2.2 Compounds and Molecules
Compound - when atoms of two or more
different elements bond together
CO2, H2O, C6H12O6, etc.
Characteristics dramatically different from original
elements
Molecule and compound is used
interchangeably
In Biology molecule is used e.g. molecule of water
(H2O) molecule of glucose (C6H12O6 )
Bonds that exist between atoms in molecules
contain energy
14
Types of Bonds: Ionic Bonding
Ionic bond - forms when electrons are
transferred from one atom to another atom.
Held together by attraction between
negative and positive charge
15
Types of Bonds: Ionic Bond Example
Sodium (Na):
Has only 1 electron in its outermost shell
Chlorine (Cl):
Has 7 electrons in its outermost shell
In a reaction between Na and Cl
Na loses an electron and becomes a positive ion
(Na+)
Cl gains an electron and becomes a negative ion
(Cl-)
Attraction of oppositely charged ions holds the
two atoms together in an ionic bond
16
Warm-Up Question
What do atoms that cannot form ionic bonds do to
become stable?
Covalent Bonding
Atoms share a pair or pairs of electrons to fill
outermost shell
•Single covalent bond
•Double covalent bond
•Triple covalent bond
Nonpolar Covalent Bonds
In nonpolar covalent bonds, sharing
of electrons is equal, i.e. the
electrons are not attracted to either
atom to a greater degree
One atom “want” (with a specific intensity) to
donate electron(s)
The other atom “want,” (with the same intensity)
to receive electron(s)
The bond electrons will spend about equal time
with both atoms
19
Nonpolar Covalent Bonds
Atoms share
electrons equally
Nuclei of atoms have
same number of
protons
Example: Hydrogen
gas (H-H)
molecular hydrogen (H2)
H—H
Polar Covalent Bonds
Number of protons in
nuclei of participating
atoms is not equal
Electrons spend
more time near
nucleus with most
protons
Water - Electrons
more attracted to O
nucleus than to H
nuclei
water (H2O)
H—O—H

2.3 Chemistry of Water
Water (H2O or H–O–H) is a polar molecule
Electrons spend more time with O than H’s
H’s become slightly +, O slightly –
Hydrogen bond – attraction of slightly positive H to a
slightly negative atom (N, O, S)
Weaker than ionic/covalent
Many together = strong
Help to maintain the proper structure and function of
complex molecules such as proteins and DNA.

High Heat Capacity
The many HB help water absorb heat without
large change in temperature
Holds onto heat and temp falls slowly
protecting organisms from rapid internal
temp changes
25
High Heat of Evaporation
Large numbers of hydrogen bonds must be
broken to evaporate water
To raise water from 100 to 101 ºC; ~540 calories!
This is why sweating (and panting) cools
Evaporative cooling is best when humidity is low
because evaporation occurs rapidly
Evaporative cooling works poorest when humidity
is high because evaporation occurs slowly

Properties of Water: Heat of Fusion
Heat of fusion (melting)
To raise ice from -2 to -1 ºC; ~1 calorie
To raise water from -1 to 0 ºC; ~1 calorie
To raise water from 0 to 1 ºC; ~80 calories!
This is why ice at 0 ºC keeps stuff cold MUCH
longer than water at 1 ºC
This is why ice is used for cooling
NOT because ice is cold
But because it absorbs so much heat before it will
warm by one degree
28
Water as a Solvent
Solutions consist of:
A solvent (the most abundant part) and
A solute (less abundant part) that is dissolved in the
solvent
Polar compounds readily dissolve; hydrophilic
Nonpolar compounds dissolve only slightly;
hydrophobic
Ionic compounds dissociate in water
29
Properties of Water: Uniqueness of Ice
Frozen water less dense than liquid water
Freeze from top down which insulates and
prevents water below from freezing
Melting ice draws heat from the environment

Water Cohesion
Hydrogen bonding holds

together
Creates surface tension (skin
on the water)
Allows water to move as
continuous column upward
through stems of plants
2.4 pH of Water: Acids
When water ionizes or dissociates, it
releases a small but equal number of
hydrogen (H+) ions and hydroxide (OH-)
ions
Acids donate hydrogen ions
Dissociate in water and release hydrogen ions
(H+) e.g. HCl → H+ + Cl
Sour to taste
35
pH of Water: Bases
Bases remove hydrogen ions
Either take up hydrogen ions (H+) or release
hydroxide ions (OH-)
Bitter to taste
36
pH Scale
pH scale used to indicate acidity and
alkalinity of a solution.
37
Buffers and pH
Buffers are solutes in water that resist
change in pH
When H+ is added, buffer may absorb, or counter
by adding OHWhen OH- is added, buffer may absorb, or counter
by adding H+
38
Buffers in Biology
Health of organisms requires maintaining pH
of body fluids within narrow limits
Human blood normally 7.4 (slightly alkaline)
Many foods and metabolic processes add or
subtract H+ or OH- ions
Reducing blood pH to 7.0 results in acidosis
Increasing blood pH to 7.8 results in alkalosis
Both life threatening situations
Bicarbonate ion (-HCO3) in blood buffers pH to 7.4
