  • Kelvin
    absolute temperature scale
  • Barometer
    Measures atmospheric pressure
  • Manometer
    Measures contained gas pressure
  • Standard Temperature & Pressure
    STP
  • Boyle's Law
    Pressure and volume
  • Charles' Law

    Volume and temperature
  • Lussac's Law

    Pressure and temperature
  • Combined Gas Law
    Pressure, Volume, Temperature
  • Avogadro's Law

    Volume and amount of gas
  • Ideal Gas Law
    Pressure, Volume, Temperature,
    Amount of Gas
  • Boyle's Law
    Pressure and volume are inversely
    related at constant temperature.
  • Charles' Law
    Volume of a gas varies directly
    with the absolute temperature at
    constant pressure
  • Gay-Lussac's Law
    The pressure and absolute
    temperature (K) of a gas are
    directly related at constant mass
    and volume
  • Avogadro's Law
    The volume of gas is directly
    proportional to the number of
    moles if the pressure and
    temperature remain constant.
  • Ideal Gas Law
    Relates pressure, temperature,
    volume, and amount of a gas
    through the gas constant "R"
  • Dalton's Law
    The total pressure exerted by a
    mixture of gases is equal to the
    sum of the partial pressures of the
    gases in the mixture.
  • Biochemistry
    The chemistry of life.
  • Carbohydrates
    - Group of compounds that constitute the most abundant biomolecules in the biosphere.
    - It includes sugar, starch, and cellulose.
  • monosaccharide
    Monomer of Carbohydrate
  • monosaccharide
    White solids at room temperature
  • Glucose
    - Hexose
    - Starting material for cellular respiration and the primary source of energy for cellular metabolic activities
  • Glucose
    "Blood sugar"
  • Fructose
    - Found in fruits
    - Twice as sweet as glucose
    - "Fruit sugar"
  • isomers

    molecular formulas, or _________
  • Galactose
    "Milk sugar"
  • disaccharide
    Two monosaccharide units bond to each other to form a disaccharide

    - Occurs in the cells of roots, tubers, and seeds of plants as microscopic granules
    - Plants store energy in the form of _________
  • Glycogen
    - Animals and humans store energy in the form of
    _________
  • Cellulose
    The material that makes up plant cell walls
  • Lipids
    - Large class of relatively water-insoluble compounds that includes fats, oils, and waxes
    - They contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen
    - Tend to dissolve in organic solvents
  • Lipids
    Monomers : glycerol + 3 fatty acids
  • Saturated
    - Only single bonds in the carbon chain
    - Most animal fats
    - "bad fats"
    - Diets high in _____ fat are linked to heart disease
  • Unsaturated
    - One or more double bonds in the carbon chain
    - Most oils from plants
    - "good" fats
  • Cholesterol
    another lipid in cell membranes. It is a sterol formed
    in brain tissue, nerve tissue in the blood, and is the major compound found in gallstones. It is also needed to make hormones like adrenaline.
  • Waxes
    are esters of long chain fatty acids unsaturated fatty acids.
