Atoms, Molecules, and Elements Michelle Faunce-Carroll CHM/110 - INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY BSDT1HX1M4 WILLIAM DE VORICK AUGUST 10, 2015 Atoms, Molecules, and Elements Atoms, Molecules, and Elements are a part of everything we do in life. Most people don’t recognize the extent that chemistry plays in our everyday lives. From the foods we eat, to the products we use for cleaning ourselves, our homes, our cars; atoms, molecules

Introduction Chlorite is a general name for a group of magnesium rich hydrous sheet silicates possessing similar structure and chemical composition. Many green rocks owe their color to chlorite and chlorite owes its name to its green color. The Greek word choros, meaning “green,” is the origin of chlorite’s name. Consisting of negatively charged mica-like (2:1) layers regularly alternating with positively charged brucite-like (octahedral) sheets, the basic structure of chlorites allows for various

Introduction Enzymes are biological catalysts. Catalysts are substances that increase the rate of chemical reactions without being used up themselves. Enzymes are also proteins. They all have different and complex shapes that allow smaller molecules to fit into them. The place where these substrate molecules fit is called the active site. The shape of an enzyme can change; its active site may no longer work. It is said the enzyme is denatured. They can be denatured by high temperatures or extremes

reactive. Compare properties of molecules formed from atoms in similar families; for example, H2S versus H2O. Explain what is meant by the electronic structure of atoms. How does knowing the electronic structure of atoms aid chemists in predicting chemical reactions? Periodic Table is designed to help us understand how elements are going to react to each other and also gives us the breakdown of how many atoms are in each element. This chart also helps us to identify metals, liquids, and gases. This

Running head: LAB 5: INVESTIGATING AN ENZYME-CATALYZED REACTION Lab 5: Investigating an Enzyme-Catalyzed Reaction September 24, 2014 Principles of Biology 120.601 Mrs. Annemarie Duncan Abstract: (Burmania) This experiment was performed in order to examine ways in which a potato catalase enzyme reacts to various assays with differing variables. To do so a baseline assay (undiluted extract and room temperature H2O2) was used within the experiment with only one other variable changed in

The costs of silicon will vary depending on the purity of the silicon. For 100g of 99% pure silicon you would pay about $36. For the same amount at 99.9999% purity you would pay about $273. The value of aluminum scrap metal varies with the stock market. At some point it may be worth 50 cents while at other times it may be closer to a dollar. The valued rate of aluminum scrap on December 12, 2011 was .9369 or approximately 94 cents per pound. Right now copper is worth $3.3375-$3.3511 per pound.
