Document Summary

Closest shell = one orbital (2 electrons) Second shell = four orbitals (8 electrons) The maximum number of electrons in an orbital is 2 electrons, but the maximum number of electrons in a shell depends on the amount of orbitals in the shell. If a shell has 9 orbitals, it has a maximum of 18 electrons: all elements on the periodic table are correctly assumed to be neutral. Inorganic molecules: organic = contain carbon and hydrogen, inorganic = do not contain both, water = most important inorganic molecule because , 1) water as the universal solvent for ionic or polar covalent molecules. Not universal for nonpolar molecules: 2) water as reactant in biochemical reactions. Evertime you form a bond in an organic system, water is removed. To break down a bond in an organic system, water is put into the system: 3) ionization of water. Ph: 4) water as temperature moderator. High heat of fusion: 5) water as a solid.
