Molecule Molecule – a particle made – a particle made up of two or more atoms up of two or more atoms bonded togetherbonded togetherDiatomic moleculeDiatomic molecule– – two of two of the same type of atom the same type of atom bonded together such as Obonded together such as O22 or or NN22

DefinitionsDefinitionsCompound Compound – a substance – a substance made up of two or more made up of two or more elements bonded togetherelements bonded togetherTherefore Therefore – – the smallest the smallest particle of a compound that particle of a compound that retains its characteristics is a retains its characteristics is a molecule (Hmolecule (H22O or COO or CO22))

DefinitionsDefinitionsIon Ion – an atom that has given – an atom that has given up or gained electrons to up or gained electrons to achieve stabilityachieve stabilityCation Cation – – a positively a positively charged ion that has charged ion that has given up electronsgiven up electronsAnion Anion – – a negatively a negatively charged ion that has charged ion that has gained electronsgained electrons


Electrolytes Electrolytes – salts that – salts that ionize in water and form ionize in water and form solutions capable of solutions capable of conducting electricityconducting electricityTherefore Therefore – – electrolytes electrolytes (ions) carry a positive or (ions) carry a positive or negative chargenegative charge

DefinitionDefinitionssFree radical Free radical – a chemical – a chemical

particle carrying an odd particle carrying an odd number of electrons (Onumber of electrons (O22

--))Explanation Explanation – – free radicals free radicals are formed from metabolic are formed from metabolic reactions, by radiation or reactions, by radiation or chemicalschemicals

DefinitionDefinitionssFree radical Free radical – a chemical – a chemical

particle carrying an odd particle carrying an odd number of electrons (Onumber of electrons (O22

--))Explanation Explanation – – free radicals free radicals quickly combine with other quickly combine with other molecules converting them molecules converting them into free radicals which will into free radicals which will destroy more moleculesdestroy more molecules

BuffersBuffers

Remember – a buffer is a Remember – a buffer is a chemical system that resists chemical system that resists large changes in pH by taking large changes in pH by taking up or giving off Hup or giving off H++ Therefore, a buffer is a Therefore, a buffer is a homeostatic mechanism that homeostatic mechanism that helps to regulate the pH of helps to regulate the pH of blood and other body fluidsblood and other body fluids

BuffersBuffers

The pH range of blood is 7.35-The pH range of blood is 7.35-7.457.45It is extremely important that It is extremely important that blood stay in this narrow blood stay in this narrow range, making buffering range, making buffering systems necessarysystems necessary

BuffersBuffers

The body has two types of The body has two types of buffering systems:buffering systems: < chemical< chemical < physiological< physiological A chemical buffer is a A chemical buffer is a substance that removes or substance that removes or releases Hreleases H++ from a system by from a system by binding to them or releasing binding to them or releasing themthem

BuffersBuffers

A physiological buffer is a A physiological buffer is a system that stabilizes pH by system that stabilizes pH by controlling the body’s output controlling the body’s output of acids, bases & COof acids, bases & CO22 The two systems that act as The two systems that act as physiological buffers are the physiological buffers are the respiratory and urinary respiratory and urinary systemssystems
