front 4 The unbonded chlorine atom has 17 electrons. Therefore, chlorine must have 17 protons and an atomic number of 17. | back 4 Chemical reactions progress at a faster rate when the reacting particles are present in higher numbers. Catalysts increase the rate of chemical reactions, sometimes while undergoing reversible changes in shape. Chemical reactions proceed more quickly at higher temperatures. |

When tasting a basic substance, it will have a bitter taste. When tasting an acidic substance, it will have a sour taste. A basic substance will have a slippery feel |
front 9 A 65-year-old patient came to the emergency room with complaints of severe heartburn unrelieved by taking a "large handful" of antacids. Would you expect the pH to be relatively high, low, or normal for the patient's stomach contents, and why? | back 9 The pH would be high. Antacids are basic, and too many antacids would result in a relatively alkaline state. |

front 11 | back 11 Hydrogen gets a slight positive charge from the unequal sharing of electrons in polar covalent bonds, and it bonds to another atom with a slightly negative charge, again resulting from unequal electron sharing due to a polar covalent bond. In covalent bonds, electrons are shared between atoms; in ionic bonds electrons are lost or gained; but hydrogen bonds are not true chemical bonds—they are weak attractions due to slight electrical imbalances. No electrons are directly involved. Because hydrogen bonds are not true bonds, they do not always join atoms together within a single molecule. In water, for example, hydrogen bonds link water molecules together. This is referred to as an intermolecular attraction—it is between different atoms. Hydrogen bonds occur when there are polar covalent molecules present, but hydrogen atoms join with each other through nonpolar covalent bonds. |
front 12 The attraction between the slightly negative oxygen atom of one molecule and the slightly positively charged hydrogen atom within a separate water molecule is the basis of hydrogen bond formation. | back 12 no data |

front 18 reactions require less activation energy and therefore are initiated with a lower input of energy. This activation energy represents the energy necessary for driving the early stages of the reaction: creating contact between properly oriented substrates, breaking original bonds, and so on. | back 18 Enzyme-catalyzed |
