Answer: ionic
15) What happens when globular proteins are denatured?
Answer: The active sites are destroyed.
16) Explain the difference between potential and kinetic energy.
Answer: Potential energy is inactive stored energy that has potential to do work. Kinetic energy is energy in action.
17) How can phospholipids form a film when mixed in water?
Answer: Phospholipids have both polar and nonpolar ends. The polar end interacts with water, leaving the nonpolar end oriented in the opposite direction.
18) What properties does water have that make it a very versatile fluid?
Answer: High heat capacity, high heat of vaporization, polarity and solvent properties, reactivity, and cushioning.
19) What advantages does ATP have in being the energy currency molecule?
Answer: Its energy is easy to capture and store; it releases just the right amount of energy for the cell's needs so it is protected from excessive energy release. A universal energy currency is efficient because a single system can be used by all the cells in the body.
20) Explain why chemical reactions in the body are often irreversible.
Answer: Chemical reactions that release energy cannot be reversed unless energy is put back into the system. Also, some reactions produce molecules in excessive quantities (like CO2 and NH4) that the body then eliminates, but which are needed to reverse a reaction.
21) When a set of electrodes connected to a light bulb is placed in a solution of dextrose and a current is applied, the light bulb does not light up. When the same unit is placed in HCl, it does. Why?
Answer: HCl ionizes to form current-conducting electrolytes. Dextrose does not ionize, and therefore does not conduct current.
22) Describe the factors that affect chemical reaction rates.
Answer: Temperature increases kinetic energy and therefore the force of molecular collisions. Particle size: smaller particles move faster at the same temperature and therefore collide more frequently; also, smaller particles have more surface area given the same concentration of reactants. Concentration: the higher the concentration, the greater the chance of particles colliding. Catalysts increase the rate of the reaction at a given temperature. Enzymes are biological catalysts.
23) Protons and electrons exist in every atom nucleus except hydrogen. Is this statement true or false and why?
Answer: False. Hydrogen has one proton and one electron. It is the neutron, not the electron that can coexist in the nucleus and that hydrogen does not have.
24) A chemical bond never occurs between components of a mixture. Discuss this.
Answer: Mixtures come in three forms–solutions, colloids, and suspensions. Components of these mixtures always retain their original makeup and can be separated into their individual components; therefore no chemical bonding has taken place.
25) All chemical reactions are theoretically reversible. Comment on this statement.
Answer: It is possible to reverse any reaction if the products are still present. Those that are only slightly exergonic are easily reversible. Some would require an enormous amount of energy to reverse. In the simple reaction Na + Cl ? NaCl the amount of energy it takes to reverse table salt to chlorine gas and sodium metal is enormous. The reversing of the covalently bonded sugar molecule once it is reduced to ATP molecules is even harder or next to impossible without plant-like systems.
26) What is the major difference between polar and nonpolar covalent bonds?
Answer: Polar bonds have an unequal sharing of electrons resulting in a slight negative charge at one end of the molecule and a slight positive charge at the other end. Nonpolar bonds have an equal sharing of electrons, resulting in a balanced charge among the atoms.
27) An amino acid may act as a proton acceptor or donor. Explain.
Answer: Amino acids have two components—a base group (proton acceptor) and an organic acid part (a proton donor). Some have additional base or acid groups on the ends of their R groups as well.
28) Name at least four things you know about enzymes.
Answer:
1. They are proteins.
2. They have specific binding sites for specific substrates.
3. They lower the activation barrier for a specific reaction.
4. The names end in "ase."
5. They can be denatured.
6. They can be used again and again.
29) In the compound H2CO3, what do the numbers 2 and 3 represent?
Answer: The 2 indicates that there are two hydrogen atoms in the compound and the 3 indicates that there are three oxygen atoms in the compound.
30) Are all chemical reactions reversible? If not, why aren't they all reversible?
Answer: All chemical reactions are theoretically reversible, but only if the products are not consumed.
31) If all protons, electrons, and neutrons are alike, regardless of the atom considered, what determines the unique properties of each element?
Answer: Atoms of different elements are composed of different numbers of protons, electrons, and neutrons.
2.5 Clinical Questions
1) Mrs. Mulligan goes to her dentist and, after having a couple of cavities filled, her dentist strongly suggests that she reduce her intake of sodas and increase her intake of calcium phosphates in the foods she eats. Why?
Answer: Sodas are strong acids that can reduce bone and tooth salts. Calcium phosphate makes teeth hard and therefore more resistant to tooth decay.
2) Although his cholesterol levels were not high, Mr. Martinez read that cholesterol was bad for his health, so he eliminated all foods and food products containing this molecule. He later found that his cholesterol level dropped only 20%. Why did it not drop more?
Answer: Cholesterol is produced by the liver, in addition to being ingested in foods.
3) How can DNA be used to "fingerprint" a suspect in a crime?
Answer: The DNA of a person is unique to that individual. By obtaining the DNA from nucleated cells from the crime scene (e.g., tissue, sperm), enzymes may be used to break up the DNA into fragments. Because nearly everyone's DNA is different, it also breaks up into fragments differently. When the fragments are separated, they form patterns even more unique than fingerprint patterns. A match of suspect and crime scene DNA is strong evidence.
4) Why is it possible for us to drink a solution that contains a mixture of equal concentration of a strong acid and a strong base, either of which, separately, would be very caustic?
Answer: When an acid and base of equal strength are mixed, they undergo a displacement reaction to form a water and a salt.
5) A 65-year-old patient came to the emergency room with complaints of severe heartburn unrelieved by taking a "large handful" of antacids. Would you expect the pH to be high or low? Explain why.
Answer: You would expect a high pH. Taking antacids will neutralize the acidic stomach. Taking a "handful" of antacids can cause an alkaloid state. Certain drugs, such as corticosteroids and antacids that contain baking soda, will lead to metabolic alkalosis.
6) A 23-year-old male was riding his road bike in 100-degree heat, when he suddenly became nauseated and weak. He called 911 from his cell phone. When the ambulance came, the paramedics started intravenous therapy for severe dehydration. Explain the critical role of water to maintain homeostasis.
Answer: Water is the most abundant and important inorganic compound in living material. It makes up 60% to 80% of the volume of most living cells. The properties of water are: high heat capacity, high heat of vaporization, polar solvent properties, reactivity, and cushioning. In this case the bicyclist lost a large amount of water through perspiration in an effort to cool his body. This caused a disruption in homeostasis.
7) Brenda is a 26-year-old female who is being discharged from the hospital after a vaginal delivery of an 8-pound healthy infant. Brenda is instructed by the nurse to eat a diet high in fiber and to drink 8 glasses of water per day to prevent constipation. Explain the role of fiber and water to promote defecation.
Answer: Cellulose is a polysaccharide found in all plant products that adds bulk to the diet to promote feces through the colon. Water acts as a lubricating liquid within the colon, which eases feces through the bowel.
