Study Guide Acids and Bases: 1. Be able to identify both the Brønsted–Lowry acid and base from a given reaction. ~An acid is a proton donor ~A base is a proton acceptor H3PO4 + H20 H3O+ +H2PO4- H3PO4 is an acid so it is a proton donor. It gives its positive atom to the other element 2. Be able to calculate the pH of a solution given [H3O+] Example: What is the pH of a solution with a [H3O+] of 1 x 10-2 M? The pH level should equal the exponent number of 2. Redox Reactions: Be

named after the Greek God Prometheus. It is not naturally occurring‚ but can survive outside of a lab. Promethium has an atomic number of 61‚ which is the number of protons. Its atomic mass‚ protons+neutrons‚ is 145u. It is an isotope. This means that it has a different number of neutrons (84) than the number of electrons and protons (61). Every element changes states of matter at different temperatures. Promethium melts at 1042.0°C (1315 Kelvin)‚ boils at 3000.0°C (3273 Kelvin)‚ and freezes at 931

TOPIC 3.7 + 8.1: CELL RESPIRATION 3.7.1 Define cell respiration. Cell respiration is the controlled release of energy from organic compounds in cells to form ATP (adenosine triphosphates). 3.7.2 State that‚ in cell respiration‚ glucose in the cytoplasm is broken down by glycolysis into pyruvate‚ with a small yield of ATP. Glycolysis in cytoplasm: Glucose 2 pyruvates + small amount of ATP (does not use oxygen) 3.7.3 Explain that‚ during anaerobic cell respiration‚ pyruvate can be
