Matter, Energy, and Life
Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space.
Energy is the ability to do work.– There are two types of energy:
Potential energy– Stored energy, available to do work
Kinetic energy– Energy of motion
– Potential energy can be converted to kinetic energy to do work.

Law of Conservation of Energy
Energy is never created or destroyed.– The first law of thermodynamics
Energy can be converted from one form to another, but the total energy remains constant.– An object at the top of a hill has potential energy
based on its location.– When the object rolls down the hill, the potential
energy is converted to kinetic energy.

Forms of Energy
There are five forms of energy:1. Mechanical energy
• Energy of movement
2. Nuclear energy• Energy from reactions involving atomic nuclei

What is the nature of matter?
Atoms– The smallest units of matter that can exist
separately Elements
– Chemical substances composed of the same kind of atoms
– Listed on the periodic table– Each element is represented by a symbol of one
or two letters.– The principal elements that comprise living things
are: C, H, O, P, K, I, N, S, Ca, Fe, and Mg.

Atomic Structure
Atoms are composed of:– The atomic nucleus
Protons - positively charged
– Atomic numberthe number of protons
– All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons.
Neutrons – no charge
– Electrons Orbit the nucleus in energy
levels Are constantly in motion

Elements
Atoms of the same element have equal numbers of electrons and protons. – Thus, they have a neutral charge.
Isotopes– Atoms of the same element that have different
numbers of neutrons.– Atomic weightthe average of all of the isotopes in a
mixture. Mass number
– The sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.

Electrons
Electrons occupy specific energy levels around the nucleus.
– Electrons closest to the nucleus have the lowest energy.
Energy levels hold specific numbers of electrons.– The first energy level can have up to 2 electrons.– All other energy levels can have up to 8 electrons.
Atoms seek to have a full outer energy level.– Atoms that have full outer energy levels are inert.– Other atoms seek to fill their outer energy levels through
chemical bonds.

The Formation of Molecules
Molecules consist of two or more atoms joined by a chemical bond.
A compound is a chemical substance made of two or more elements combined in chemical bonds.– The formula of a compound describes the nature
and proportions of the elements that comprise the compound.

Molecules and Kinetic Energy
Molecules are constantly in motion. Temperature is a measure of the average speed of
the molecules in a substance.– The greater the speed, the higher the temperature.– Measured in Fahrenheit or Celsius
Heat is a measure of the total kinetic energy of molecules.
– Measured in calories (amount of heat that will raise 1g of water 1 degree Celsius).
Heat and Temperature are related.– Add heat energy to a substance and the molecules will
speed up, and the temperature will rise.

Kinetic Energy, Physical Changes and Phases of Matter
Three phases of matter– Solid– Liquid– Gas
The phase in which a substance exists depends on its kinetic energy and the strength of its attractive forces.
– Solidsstrong attractive forces, low kinetic energy, little to no molecular movement.
– Liquidenough kinetic energy to overcome the attractive forces; more molecular movement.
– Gashigh kinetic energy, little to no attractive forces; maximum movement.

Chemical Changes—Forming New Kinds of Matter
Chemical reactions– Creating different chemical substances by forming
and breaking chemical bonds.– Remember: Atoms form chemical bonds to fill
their outermost electron energy levels, achieving stability.
There are several types of chemical bonds.– We will discuss:
Ionic bonds Covalent bonds
2-17 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
Ionic Bonds
Atoms can gain or lose electrons to achieve a full outermost energy level.
– Atoms with charge are called ions.– When an atom gives away an electron, it ends up with more protons than
electrons and gains a positive charge; cation.– When an atom accepts an electron, it ends up with more electrons than
protons and gains a negative charge; anion.– This process is called ionization.
An ionic bond– The attraction between oppositely charged ions
Example: NaCl– Sodium (Na) has one electron in its outer energy level.– Chloride has seven electrons in its outer energy level.– Sodium donates an electron to chloride, each achieving stability.– The positively charged sodium is attracted to the negatively charged
chloride.

Covalent Bonds
Atoms can achieve full outermost energy levels by sharing electrons instead of exchanging them.
A covalent bond is formed by the sharing of electrons.– The atoms sharing electrons sit close enough together so that
their outer energy levels overlap.– Single covalent bondone pair of electrons is shared.
H2
– Double covalent bondtwo pairs of electrons are shared. ethylene
– Triple covalent bondthree pairs of electrons are shared. N2

Covalent Bonds

Hydrogen Bonds
The positive hydrogen end of one polar molecule is attracted to the negative end of another polar molecule.
– This attraction is a hydrogen bond. Hydrogen bonds hold molecules together.
– Since they do not hold atoms together, they are not considered true chemical bonds.
Hydrogen bonds are very important in biology.– They stabilize the structure of DNA and proteins.– Water molecules can “stick” together with hydrogen bonds.

Water: The Essence of Life
Water has special properties that make it an essential molecule for life.– H2O– Electrons are shared unequally by hydrogen and
oxygen. This is a polar covalent bond. Oxygen has more protons than hydrogen.
– The electrons spend more time around oxygen than around hydrogen.
– The oxygen end of water is more negative.– The hydrogen end of water is more positive.

Mixtures and Solutions
A mixture – Matter that contains two or more substances that are not in set
proportions A solution is a homogeneous mixture of ions or
molecules of two or more substances. – Components are distributed equally throughout.– The process of making a solution is called dissolving.– The solvent is the substance present in the largest amount.
Frequently the solvent is a liquid.– The solutes are the substances present in smaller amounts.
Aqueous solutions are solids, liquids or gases dissolved in water.

Water and Life
The following properties of water make it essential for life:
– High surface tension Water molecules stick to each other via hydrogen bonds. Capillary action moves water through streams, soil, animals
and plants.
– High heat of vaporization A lot of heat is required to break the hydrogen bonds holding
water together. Large bodies of water absorb a lot of heat.
– Temperate climates– Evaporative cooling

Water and Life
Unusual density properties– Ice is less dense than water, so ice floats.– Allows aquatic life to survive in cold climates.
The universal solvent– Water can form hydrogen bonds with any polar or
ionic compound.– Therefore, many things can be dissolved in water.

Chemical Reactions
A chemical change:– When the bonds of compounds are made or
broken, new materials with new properties are produced.
– Happens via chemical reactions.
In a chemical reaction the elements remain the same, but the compounds they form and their properties are different.
2-29 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
Chemical Reactions and Energy
Chemical reactions produce new compounds with less or more potential energy.– Energy is released when compounds are made with
less potential energy.– Energy is used to make compounds with more
potential energy.

Chemical Equations
A chemical equation is a method of describing what happens in a chemical reaction. – For example, photosynthesis is described by the
following equation:
Energy + 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6H2O
Reactantssubstances that are changed, usually on the left side of the equation.
Productsnew chemical substances formed, usually on the right side of the equation.

Five Important Chemical Reactions in Biology
1. Oxidation–reduction
2. Dehydration synthesis
3. Hydrolysis
4. Phosphorylation
5. Acid–base reactions
2-32 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
Oxidation-Reduction Reactions
Oxidationreduction reactions – Reactions in which electrons (and their energy) are transferred from
one atom to another.– Oxidation
An atom loses an electron.– Reduction
An atom gains an electron. For oxidation to occur, reduction must also occur. Example:
– Respiration Sugar is oxidized to form carbon dioxide and oxygen is reduced to form
water. Energy is released in the process.
C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6H2O + 6CO2+ Energy Sugar + oxygen → water+ carbon dioxide + energy

Dehydration Synthesis Reaction
When two small molecules are joined to form a larger molecule,– A molecule of water is released.
Example:– Joining amino acids to form proteins.
NH2CH2CO-OH + H-NH CH2CO-OH NH2CH2CO-NH CH2CO-OH + H-OH
amino acid 1 + amino acid 2 = protein + water
2-34 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
Hydrolysis Reactions
When a larger molecule is broken down into smaller parts,– A water molecule is split– Opposite of a dehydration synthesis
Example:– Digesting proteins into amino acids.NH2CH2CO-NH CH2CO-OH + H-OH NH2CH2CO-OH + H-NH CH2CO-OH
Protein + water = amino acid 1 + amino acid 2
2-35 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
Phosphorylation Reactions
When phosphate groups are added to other molecules,– Phosphate groups are clusters of oxygen and phosphate
atoms.
Bonds between phosphate groups and other molecules contain high potential energy.
– When these bonds are broken, the energy that is released can be used by the cell to do work.
– Phosphorylation reactions are commonly used to transfer potential energy.

Acid-Base Reactions
Occurs when ions from an acid interact with ions from a base.
This type of reaction allows harmful acids and bases to neutralize one another.
H+Cl- + Na+OH- → Na+Cl- + H+OH-
Hydrocloric + Sodium Sodium + Water acid hydroxide chloride

Acids, Bases and Salts
An acid – Ionic compounds that release hydrogen ions (H+) into a solution – Phosphoric acid, hydrochloric acid
A base– Compounds that release hydroxide ions (OH-) into a solution– Sodium hydroxide, ammonia
Because bases are negatively charged, they will react with a positively charged hydrogen in solution.
The strength of an acid or base is determined by how completely it will dissociate in water.
– Strong acids release almost all of their hydrogen ions into water.– Strong bases release almost all of their hydroxide ions into water.

Salts
Neither acids nor bases Usually formed when acids and bases react
– The dissociated hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions join to form water.
– The remaining ions form ionic bonds, creating a salt.– This is an example of neutralization:
H+Cl- + Na+OH- → Na+Cl- + H+OH-
Hydrocloric + Sodium Sodium + Water
acid hydroxide chloride

pH
A measure of hydrogen ion concentration Solutions with high hydrogen ion concentrations
– Have low pH– Are acidic
Solutions with low hydrogen ion concentrations– Have a high pH– Are basic
There is a 10-fold difference in hydrogen ion concentration between solutions that differ by one pH unit.
– A solution with pH 4 has ten times as many hydrogen ions as a solution with pH 5.
