Question
Answer
show the smallest unit of an element that maintains the chemical properties of that element  
🗑
The Scientific method   show
🗑
Hypothesis   show
🗑
Theory   show
🗑
Dependant   show
🗑
show in an experiment, the factor that is deliberately manipulated  
🗑
Controlled Experiment   show
🗑
Matter   show
🗑
show a substance that cannot be separated or broken down into simpler substances by chemical means; all atoms of an element have the same atomic number  
🗑
show Cellular organization, Reproduction, Metabolism, Homeostasis, Heredity, Responsiveness, Growth and development  
🗑
Compounds   show
🗑
Cohesion   show
🗑
show the attractive force between two bodies of different substances that are in contact with each other  
🗑
show the intermolecular force occurring when a hydrogen atom that is bonded to a highly electronegative atom of one molecule is attracted to two unshared electrons of another molecule  
🗑
show a subatomic particle that has a positive charge and that is located in the nucleus of an atom; the number of protons in the nucleus is the atomic number, which determines the identity of an element  
🗑
Neutron   show
🗑
show a subatomic particle that has a negative charge  
🗑
Energy levels   show
🗑
Atomic number   show
🗑
show the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom  
🗑
Isotopes   show
🗑
show an isotope that has an unstable nucleus and that emits radiation  
🗑
show stores heat efficiently, cohesion, adhesion, hydrogen bonds, polarity  
🗑
Covalent bond   show
🗑
show the attractive force between oppositely charged ions, which form when electrons are transferred from one atom to another  
🗑
show the intermolecular force occurring when a hydrogen atom that is bonded to a highly electronegative atom of one molecule is attracted to two unshared electrons of another molecule  
🗑
show a chemical reaction in which heat is released to the surroundings  
🗑
show a chemical reaction that requires heat  
🗑
show any compound that increases the number of hydronium ions when dissolved in water; acids turn blue litmus paper red and react with bases and some metals to form salts  
🗑
Bases   show
🗑
show a value that is used to express the acidity or alkalinity (basicity) of a system; each whole number on the scale indicates a tenfold change in acidity; a pH of 7 is neutral, a pH of less than 7 is acidic, and a pH of greater than 7 is basic  
🗑
show a homogeneous mixture throughout which two or more substances are uniformly dispersed  
🗑
show in a solution, the substance that dissolves in the solvent  
🗑
show in a solution, the substance in which the solute dissolves  
🗑
Organic compounds   show
🗑
show Carbon usually bonds with hydrogen, oxygen, and other carbon atoms  
🗑
show Monomers are joined together through dehydration, or water loss  
🗑
Hydrolysis   show
🗑
show a simple molecule that can combine with other like or unlike molecules to make a polymer  
🗑
Polymers   show
🗑
Phospholipids   show
🗑
show a type of lipid that consists of four carbon rings to which various functional groups are attached and that usually has a physiological action  
🗑
show composed of fatty acids and alcohol  
🗑
Proteins   show
🗑
show the chemical bond that forms between the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amino group of another amino acid  
🗑
Enzymes   show
🗑
show the minimum amount of energy required to start a chemical reaction  
🗑
Catalyst   show
🗑
show the reactant in reactions catalyzed by enzymes  
🗑
Active site   show
🗑
Nucleic acids   show
🗑
RNA   show
🗑
show deoxyribonucleic acid, the material that contains the information that determines inherited characteristics  
🗑
show adenosine triphosphate, an organic molecule that acts as the main energy source for cell processes; composed of a nitrogenous base, a sugar, and three phosphate groups  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
