Study Notes
Bonding and Water Properties
- Hydrogen bonds form between two polar molecules, such as between two water molecules.
- Water's high specific heat capacity allows it to buffer temperature.
- Nonpolar covalent bonds form when elements have about the same electronegativity and share electrons equally, such as in carbon-hydrogen bonds.
Water Properties
- Water's low density form floats as ice due to its hydrogen bonding, which results in a crystalline structure with empty spaces.
Elements and Nucleosynthesis
- The heaviest naturally occurring element formed in supernova explosions is not specified.
- The heaviest element formed from nucleosynthesis is not specified.
Biomolecules
- The process of joining monomers together and removing a water molecule is called dehydration synthesis.
- Water's polarity allows it to attract other polar molecules.
- Three hydrogen bonds are formed between cytosine (C) and guanine (G) in a DNA molecule.
- The process of splitting a biomolecule into its monomer components using water is called hydrolysis.
- A protein is a long strand of amino acids folded into a 3D shape.
- Phosphodiester bonds are the covalent bonds that link one strand of DNA backbone together.
