called a(an) molecule.
5. Elements with the same number of protons and electrons but different number of
neutrons is called a(an) isotopes.
7. According to the periodic chart from your text, the atomic mass for sulfur is 32.06.
10. An uneven distribution of charge across a compound such as water causes the molecule
to be polarity.
11. Weak acids and weak bases help the body to resist shifts in pH and are therefore called

bound together by chemical bonds.
20. Phospholipids make up the cell membrane of all cells. They have only two fatty acid
chains, one glycerol and a phosphate group.
21. Where are the three subatomic particles that make up the atom located? The Nucleus
22. What are the electrical charges of the subatomic particles?
Protons have a positive charge while electrons have a negative charge. Neutrons, on
the other hand, don't have a charge.

26. Which type of bond is formed when electrons are shared equally? Covalent Bond
27. Atoms that have the same number of protons, but have different numbers of neutrons or
same atomic number and different atomic mass. Isotopes
28. The valence of carbon is 4.
29. What is a hexose and name the hexoses? A hexose is a monosaccharide with six carbon
atoms. Monosaccharides may also be classified based on the type of carbonyl group
they contain. Aldose, ketose, glucose, galactose, mannose, fructose.
30. What is a pentose and name the pentoses? A pentose is a monosaccharide with five
carbon atoms. Ribose in RNA and deoxyribose in DNA
