Document Summary

Electrons occupy a series of energy levels or electron shells: the outermost electron shell determines the reactivity of the element. Ionic bonding: exchange of electrons from one atom to another ionic = attraction between positive cations and negative anions. Covalent bonds exist between atoms that share electrons to form a molecule: double covalent bond, non-polar covalent bond, polar covalent bond. Hydrogen bonds are weak forces that affect the shape and properties of compounds: polar covalent bonds that occur when hydrogen covalently bonds with another element. A chemical reaction occurs when reactants combine to generate one or more products: all chemical reactions in the body constitutes metabolism, metabolism provides for the capture, storage and release of energy. Metabolism: types of reaction, decomposition, synthesis, exchange, metabolism is the sum of all reactions, through catabolism cells gain energy (break down of complex molecules, anabolism uses energy (synthesis of new molecules)
