BEWARE!
SECTION 2-1: THE NATURE OF SECTION 2-1: THE NATURE OF MATTERMATTER• REMEMBER from a long, long REMEMBER from a long, long
time ago…time ago…• Atoms are made up of electrons Atoms are made up of electrons
(-), neutrons (neutral), and (-), neutrons (neutral), and protons (+)protons (+)
• If the number of +s in the If the number of +s in the nucleus = the number of –s in nucleus = the number of –s in the electron shells the atom is the electron shells the atom is stable.stable.
• If not the atom wants to bond.If not the atom wants to bond.
BondsBonds
• Ionic bondIonic bond – when electrons – when electrons are transferred from one are transferred from one atom to anotheratom to another– Example NaClExample NaCl
• Covalent bondCovalent bond – electrons – electrons are shared between atomsare shared between atoms
– Example HExample H22OO
Bonds• All of what we do in this unit will
focus on different types of COVALENT BONDS
• Now let’s look at the difference between Polar and NON-Polar Covalent bonds.
BEWARE!
SECTION 2-2: PROPERTIES OF SECTION 2-2: PROPERTIES OF WATERWATER• PolarityPolarity – uneven distribution of – uneven distribution of
electrons between the electrons between the hydrogen and oxygen atoms hydrogen and oxygen atoms – Oxygen is bigger and Oxygen is bigger and
attracts the electrons more attracts the electrons more than hydrogenthan hydrogen
• Hydrogen bondsHydrogen bonds – slightly – slightly positive, polar H atoms are positive, polar H atoms are attracted to polar negative attracted to polar negative atoms like Oatoms like O
• CohesionCohesion – attraction between – attraction between molecules of same substancemolecules of same substance– Water has high surface Water has high surface
tension (allows some bugs tension (allows some bugs to walk on water)to walk on water)
• AdhesionAdhesion - attraction between - attraction between molecules of different molecules of different substancessubstances– Capillary action (water Capillary action (water
moves up a straw along the moves up a straw along the sides)sides)

• pH scalepH scale – indicates the – indicates the concentration of Hconcentration of H+ +
• pH = 7 = neutral (HpH = 7 = neutral (H++ = OH = OH--))• BaseBase = pH above 7 (lower H = pH above 7 (lower H+ +
than pure water)than pure water)• AcidAcid = pH below 7 (higher H = pH below 7 (higher H+ +

LIFE’S BACKBONELIFE’S BACKBONE
• Most of the compounds that Most of the compounds that make up living things contain make up living things contain carbon. carbon.
• Carbon makes up the basic Carbon makes up the basic structure, or “backbone,” of structure, or “backbone,” of these compounds. these compounds.
• Each atom of carbon has four Each atom of carbon has four electrons in its outer energy electrons in its outer energy level, which makes it possible for level, which makes it possible for each carbon atom to form four each carbon atom to form four bonds with other atoms. bonds with other atoms.
