1 A) Energy is released. B) Energy is absorbed. C) Another neutron is created in the nucleus. D) The atom becomes a different element. E) The atom emits the electron as radiation. 2 A) Number of protons and repeating chemical properties. B) Number of valence electrons and repeating chemical properties. C) Number of neutrons and repeating chemical properties. D) Number of electron orbitals and repeating chemical properties. E) None of the above. 3 A) Ionic bonds can only occur between metals and non-metals, and therefore aren't usually present in biological situations. B) Ionic bonds are toxic to proteins. C) You can have double covalent bonds, but not double ionic bonds, so covalent bonds provide more variety consistent with the structural demands required in biological systems. D) Biological conditions are often aqueous, and the water would cause ionic bonds to dissociate. E) Ions only form under extreme conditions not compatible with the cell's environment. 4 A) Ionic bonding of individual water molecules provides energy for the water to move upwards. B) The water molecules have a high specific heat capacity, so they absorb energy from the surroundings to move upwards. C) Hydrogen bonding and gravity combine to force the water to move upwards. D) Cohesion on the surface of the top of the water column pulls it upwards. E) Adhesion to the walls of the tube cause the top surface to advance upward, and cohesion between the individual water molecules pull along the molecules beneath. 5 A) It interacts strongly with other water molecules. B) It can exist as a solid, liquid, or gas. C) Its temperature correlates with how rapidly its individual molecules are moving. D) As it freezes, its density decreases. E) Its temperature increases when heat is applied, then holds the higher temperature after the heat source is no longer present.
