Study Notes
Stoichiometry
- Chemical formulas can be molecular or empirical
- Molecular formula: actual number of atoms in a molecule, e.g. C2H6
- Empirical formula: simplest whole number ratio of atoms, e.g. CH3
Nomenclature
- Ionic compounds:
- Monoatomic non-metal: -ide
- Polyatomic:
- Several O atoms: -ate
- Less O atoms: -ite
- Transition metals:
- Smaller charge: -ous
- Larger charge: -ic
- Example: Fe2+ is ferrous, Fe3+ is ferric
Quantum Numbers
- Describe an electron and serve as solutions to the Schrödinger wave equation
- n (principal/shell): distance of orbital from nucleus, possible values: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
- ℓ (azimuthal/angular shape of orbital subrange): possible values: 0, n-1
- ml (magnetic): orientation of orbitals, possible values: -l, +l
- ms (spin): direction of magnetic spin, possible values: ½, -½
Subshells and Shells
- Subshells:
- s: 1 orbital, 2 electrons
- p: 3 orbitals, 6 electrons
- d: 5 orbitals, 10 electrons
- f: 7 orbitals, 14 electrons
- g: 9 orbitals, 18 electrons
- Shells:
- 1st shell: 1s, 2 electrons
- 2nd shell: 2s, 2p, 8 electrons
- 3rd shell: 3s, 3p, 3d, 18 electrons
- 4th shell: 4s, 4p, 4d, 4f, 32 electrons
Taxonomic Ranking
- Mnemonic: Dear King Philip Came Over For Great Spaghetti
- Taxonomic ranks from general to specific:
- Domain: Eukarya
- Kingdom: Animalia
- Phylum: Chordata
- Class: Mammalia
- Order: Carnivora
- Family: Hominidae
- Genus: Homo
- Species: Homo sapiens
Species to Remember
- Found in the Philippines:
- Pithecophaga jefferyi (Philippine eagle)
- Bubalus mindorensis (tamaraw)
- Bubalus bubalis (carabao/water buffalo)
- Jasminum sambac (sampaguita)
- Musa textilis (abaca)
- Musa squamosa (banana)
- Passer montanus (maya bird)
- Chanos chanos (bangus)
- Mangifera indica (mango)
- Pterocarpus indicus (narra)
- Macaca fascicularis (Philippine macaque)
- Oryza sativa (rice)
- Model organisms:
- Drosophila melanogaster (fruit fly)
- Escherichia coli
- Saccharomyces cerevisiae (baker's yeast)
- Danio rerio (zebrafish)
- Mus musculus (house mouse)
Genetics
- True-breeding: produces only the same variety as the parent
- Hybridization: crossing of two true-breeding varieties
- P generation: parent
- F1 generation: first filial
- Allele: alternative versions of a gene
- Dominant: determines the organism's appearance
- Recessive: no noticeable effect on the organism's appearance
- Homozygous: gene with a pair of identical alleles
- Heterozygous: gene with two different alleles
- Phenotype: an organism's appearance or observable traits
- Genotype: genetic makeup
- Monohybrids: heterozygous for one particular character
- Dihybrids: heterozygous for two particular characters
- Pleiotropy: having multiple phenotypic effects, especially in alleles
- Epistasis: phenotypic expression of a gene at one locus alters that of a gene at a second locus
- Quantitative characters: vary in the population in gradations along a continuum
