LESSON 1 Formation and Synthesis of Heavier
Elements
What is It
Evolution of Stars and the Formation of Heavier Elements
Star formation theory states that stars are
formed when a dense region of molecular
cloud collapses. During this process, fragments
of clouds contract and form a stellar core
known as protostar. The contraction and
gravitational force of the protostar result in an
increase in temperature which triggers nuclear
reaction within the star upon reaching 10
million Kelvin. Throughout the reaction,
neutrinos and positrons are released, slowing
down the reaction. Once the contraction stops
and the protostar attains its gravitational
equilibrium, a main sequence star will be
formed.
In the core of a main sequence star, hydrogen fuses with helium through
proton-proton chain. In addition, the gravitational force of a main sequence
star forces hydrogen and helium to fuse resulting to burning of the 2 primordial
elements. Furthermore, at this stage, helium is converted to carbon at the core
while hydrogen is converted into helium surrounding the core which denotes
the formation of red giant. On the other hand, since massive stars possess
enough energy, mass, temperature, and pressure, the star will undergo a series
of stages where heavier elements are fused around the shell of the core
whereas carbon will be formed through helium fusion, neon will be formed
through oxygen fusion, magnesium from neon fusion, silicon from magnesium
fusion, and iron from silicon fusion which denotes the formation of red giant.
Considering that the majority of helium surrounding the core has been
converted into carbon, the rate of reaction will decrease causing the
gravitational force to act squeezing the entire star. With low mass stars,
considering that the amount of energy is not enough to sustain the reaction,
and that the star’s fuel has been exhausted, the outer material covering the
star will eventually be blown-off leaving an inert carbon core resulting to the
formation of white dwarf.

The first 3 minutes of Big Bang focused primarily on the expansion and
cooling of universe so as to the synthesis of the first three elements. On the
other hand, the second cosmological event is Stellar nucleosynthesis, a
process in which heavier elements such as Beryllium ( 4Be) and Iron (26Fe) were
formed by combining protons and neutrons from the nuclei of a lighter
elements.
Moreover, under the process of stellar nucleosynthesis, heavier elements
are created in different types of stars as they die or explode and the abundance
of these elements change as the stars evolve.
Stable Helium reacts with Carbon to produce oxygen and gamma rays
under extreme gravitational force and temperature. Oxygen as the product of
the initial reaction then reacts with Helium to form Neon
and gamma rays ( 42He + 168O 2010Ne + 00γ). The third
reaction involves carbon reacting with another Carbon
forming Magnesium and gamma ray
(126C + 126C 2412Mg + 00γ). On the other hand, Oxygen to Oxygen fusion will
create Silicon, alpha particle (Helium) and gamma rays as product.
(168O + 168O 2814Si + 42He + 00γ). The process will continue to form heavier
elements from lighter ones, but not heavier than Iron with atomic mass of 26.
Lastly, supernova happens when the core can no longer produce the needed
energy to resist gravitational force, leading to its explosion and release of large
amounts of energy.
Pieces of Evidence
One remarkable evidence to support stellar nucleosynthesis and star
formation theory is the discovery of interstellar dusts and gasses which justifies
the stages of stellar formation which are happening across the universe. In
addition, infrared radiation being emitted in the process of stellar formation
serves as a strong indication that stellar nucleosynthesis is a concurrent with
stellar formation and evolution.

polarity. One notable example is that vinegar mixes well with water since both
water and vinegar are polar substances.
Boiling point is the temperature at which a liquid turns into a gas.
There are several factors that influence the boiling point of a substance, but
here, we focus on the polarity of its molecules. Substances have varied boiling
points due to the differences in their respective molecular polarity.
How does polarity of molecules affect the boiling point of a substance?
The greater the polarity of the molecules in the substance, the greater their
forces of attraction between molecules, the greater the energy needed to
separate them into a gaseous form, and, therefore, the higher its boiling point.
The molecules in water, for example, are held together by strong H-bonds
(hydrogen bonds), which results in its very high boiling point (100°C). In
contrast, non-polar substances usually have relatively lower boiling points
because of weaker forces of attraction among the molecules.

WHAT I HAVE LEARNED
1. Polarity refers to having a dipole, that is, a positive and a negative end.
The term may be applied to a bond between atoms in a molecule, or
to a whole molecule. In a polar bond, the electron pair is unevenly
pulled between the atoms. In a non-polar bond, the electron pair is
more or less evenly distributed. Simple molecules with non-polar
bonds are non-polar molecules. Those with polar bonds are polar
molecules.
18
5. Miscibility refers to the capacity of a liquid to be mixed with other
liquids to form a homogenous substance. Miscibility is influenced by
the polarity of the substances attempted to be mixed. [Miscibility
may also be used in relation to solids and gases, but this use
is beyond the scope of this lesson].

What’s New
When you think of forces of attraction, you may think of humans. Like
most of us, you will probably say that it is something that exists between
people. In humans, there are forces of attraction that bring people together
into friendship, marriage, and other types of relationships. Like people,
molecules have this force of attraction that holds them together with the
surrounding molecules. But just like any other force, there are stronger and
weaker interactions.

THE CHEMISTRY OF LIFE
1
Living organisms are primarily made up of organic
compounds. The process of building organic molecules by
living organisms is called biosynthesis.
What’s In
Biomolecules (also known as macromolecules) are
organic compounds that make up all living organisms.
They are all produced through the process of biosynthesis.
As previously discussed, organic compounds are
carbon-rich molecules usually in association with
hydrogen and oxygen. Organic and nature based materials
that we use today are primarily rich in these four
macromolecules. The four macromolecules are
carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids, and proteins.

CARBOHYDRATES
Carbohydrates are one of the most abundant
macromolecules on Earth.
Literally, the term means “hydrates of carbons” because of
its 1:2:1 ratio of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen of its
simplest chemical formula, respectively (e. g., C 6H12O6 for
glucose). A more generalized formula is C m(H2O)n, where m
is equal to 3 or more, and m and n are not necessarily equal
(e. g. C12H22O11 for sucrose or table sugar).
Carbohydrates are generally classified as simple or
complex. Table 1 shows the difference between simple and
complex carbohydrates.

Examples glucose, table sugar Chitin (exoskeleton)
Cellulose (plant cell
wall)
Starch and glycogen
43
LIPIDS
Lipids are a large group of substances also found in
living systems. They are insoluble in water but are soluble
in solvents that are nonpolar or have low polarity. Lipids
have three major functions:
44
saturated fats do not have double-bonded hydrocarbons,
are solid even at room temperature, and present in animal
fats. You may also have heard about trans fats. These are
artificially hydrogenated oils commonly used in the food
industry. Hydrogenation, the addition of hydrogen to the oil
structure, results in the saturation of the oil, making it
more stable hence prolonging the shelf life of food.
NUCLEIC ACIDS
Nucleic acids are the most important biomolecules in the
continuity of life.
They store genetic information in the cell, and are in the
form of either DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) or RNA
(ribonucleic acid). Nucleic acids are made up of
nucleotides. Nucleotides have three components:
pentose sugar (5-carbon sugar), phosphate group, and
nitrogenous base. Table 2 shows the features that
differentiate DNA from RNA. Figure 2 shows the parts of
a nucleotide.
45

ile:0322_DNA_Nucleotides.jpg)
PROTEINS
Proteins are some of the most complex macromolecules in
terms of structure and function. Like carbohydrates,
proteins are also very abundant in living organisms. The
building blocks of proteins are the amino acids of which 20
are known. An amino acid has an amino group, a
carboxylic group, and an R group or side chain. Each
amino acid has a different R group or side chain, which
makes each amino acid unique. Figure 3 below shows the
parts of the amino acid molecule.
46
The different types of proteins are classified based on their
function. Keratin in the hair is an example of a structural
protein, while hormones like insulin are regulatory proteins.
Actin and myosin proteins are for movement, and are called
contractile proteins. Antibodies that are produced by the
white blood cells are called protective proteins, while
hemoglobin which carries oxygen gas is an example of a
transport protein. Egg albumin is a storage protein that
serves as nourishment for the developing
embryo.
