Document Summary

At the end of this unit, you should be able to define and/or use the following: units: length: micron ( m) = 10-6 m, Angstrom ( ) = 10-10 m: mass: dalton (da) 1 da = 1 g/mole, kilodalton (kd); *find atomic mass on the periodic table. *valence electrons: molecular interactions: types of bonds/interactions, *covalent bonds (polar and non- polar, non-covalent bonds. *hydrogen bonds = h- bond (know which functional groups can be potential h-bond donors or acceptors) *tetrahedral geometry of carbon atoms bound to four molecules (bond angles. When you"re done studying for this unit, you should be able to: predict the product of oxidation, reduction, hydrolysis, and condensation reactions based on a molecule"s structure that you are asked to memorize or are given. Draw or recognize the structure of glucose, glycerol, and glyceraldehyde. Evaluate chemical structures that contain c, n, o, and p for proper bonding rules. Compare the strength of covalent and various non-covalent bonds.
