=Wiki Assignment #10 - Biomolecules= 1. Carbohydrates are made up of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen. 2. Carbohydrates are used as simple sugars in the body and these simple sugars produce energy. 3. Two examples of simple carbohydrates are table sugar and fruit juice. 1. Proteins are made up of Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, and Nitrogen 2. Hair and nails are mostly made of protein. Your body uses protein to build and repair tissues. You also use protein to make enzymes, hormones, and other body chemicals. Protein is an important building block of bones, muscles, cartilage, skin, and blood. 3. Chicken and soybeans are examples of protein. 1. Lipids are made of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen just like carbohydrates. 2. Lipids give the body structure, help produce energy, and even help control our vitamin and hormone usage within our bodies. 3. Two examples of lipids are cholesterol and glycerols. 1. Nucleic Acids are made up of proteins. So they have Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, and Nitrogen. 2. Nucleic acid is a protein found in RNA and DNA to determine our genes. 3. Two examples of nucleic acids are DNA and RNA. =Wiki Assignment #9 - Concentrated vs. Dilute and Strong vs. Weak Solutions= 1. A concentrated solution has more solute than solvent in it and a dilute solution is just the opposite where there is more solvent than solute in it. 2. When a solution has a strong acid, that means that the acid is fully dissolved in water. When a solution has a weak acid, the base is very strong so the acid does not fully dissolve or break apart. 3.[|Concentrated and Dilute; Strong and Weak acids] =Wiki Assignment #8 - Equilibrium 2= 1. The reactants and products remain constant with time at equilibrium because when a reaction is at equilibrium, the reactants and products are reacting at the same rate. Even though the products and reactants are reacting at the same rate the reaction is still considered dynamic because there are forward and reverse reactions occuring all the time. 2. The equilibrium expression is the concentration of the products over the concentration of the reactants. Here are some examples: [|3 expressions] 3. []

=Wiki Assignment #6 - Reaction Rates= =[|Concentration, Temperature, etc.] **[]**= =Wiki Assignment #5 - Investigating Solubility and Immiscibility= People today are using water vessels to clean up oil spills. Flushing and hot water washing can also be used to clean up some spills. Although humans try their best to help clean oil spills, most of the cleaning comes from nature. Burial in the sediments, evaporation and breakdown by bacteria, photooxidation (which occurs when sunlight transforms complex high molecular weight petroleum compounds into simpler compounds which are more soluble in water and potentially more available to vulnerable biological organisms), and wave action are all examples of how nature cleans up. When you increase the temperature, the solubility of the substance also increases. By stirring, you can allow more of the solute to dissolve between the water molecules (Solubility increases). As the surface area of a substance increases, the solubility of the substance increases. When the temperature of a substance increases, the Rate of Dissolution also increases. When a substance is stirred, the Rate of Dissolution increases. As the surface area increases, the Rate of Dissolution increases. =Wiki Assignment #4 - Physical Properties of Water= 1. Boiling Point - 100 degrees Celcius - Unusually high 2. Specific heat 4180 J/kg - Specific heat is the amount of energy required to change the temperature of a substance - Unusually high __www.physicalgeometry.net__ 3. Molar Mass 18.0154 - how many grams per mole water has - low - __[|www.ozh2o.com]__ 4. Density 1 g/cc - Density is the ratio of mass to volume - similar - www.ozh2o.com 5. Molar Volume 55.5 moles/liter - Molar volume is how many moles are in one liter of a substance - low - [|www.ozh2o.com]
 * __Solubility__:** The quantity of a particular substance that can dissolve in a particular solvent (yielding a saturated solution)
 * __Rate of Dissolution__:** The amount of substance that goes into a solution per unit time under standardized conditions of liquid/solid interface, temperature, and solvent composition.

=Wiki Assignment #3 - Greenhouse Effect= __Greenhouse effect__ - Where the atoms in the atmosphere vibrate faster when they come in contact with infrared rays which makes the temperature of the atmosphere warmer. 1."There is no such thing as global warming." I have heard this statements many times in the last couple years and I don't know which side to take on it. I don't really belive that the temperature is increasing because this is one of the coldest winters I can remember, but all of the facts in the article about the atoms vibrating faster definitely seem possible. 2."The greenhouse effect does not necessarily make the earth warmer." I have heard people use this as an excuse when other people tell them that global warming is a myth because it is not getting warmer. Why is it called global WARMING then?!? If the atoms are moving faster I don't see how the earth could get colder. =[|3 Gas Laws]Wiki Assignment #2 - Gas Laws=

__Charles' Law__ In the chemist's experiment, he has two balloons of the same volume and puts one in ice water and the other in warm water. The one in the warm water becomes visibly larger than the one in cold water. So this explains Charles' law that the volume and temperature of an object are directly proportional. When the temperature increases, the volume increases. And on the other hand when the temperature decreases, the volume decreases.

__Boyle's Law__ The chemist's example of Boyle's Law is that when divers get deeper in the ocean there is more pressure on his lungs, and because there is more pressure on his lungs the volume of his lungs decreases. So then when the diver reaches the surface there is less pressure on his body so his lungs are able to expand again. This explains Boyle's Law because when the pressure on something increases, the volume of that object decreases. And on the other hand when the pressure on the object decreases, the volume increases.

__Gay-Lussac's Law__ The chemist's example of Gay-Lussac's Law was that when you heat a pop can with a timy amount of water in it to 100 degrees Celcius (the temperature at which water boils), and then put it in ice water, the can will crumple. The can does this because when the temperature in the can increased, the pressure inside the can also increased. So then when he put the can into the ice water, the temperature inside the can dropped and because it dropped the pressure inside the can also decreased. It ended up decreasing to a lower pressure than the pressure of the air outside the can so the air pressure crushed the sides of the can. This explains Gay-Lussac's Law because when the temperature of an object increases, the pressure of that object also increases. And when the temperature of that object decreases, the pressure of the object also decreases.
