CAPT Science Review: • A review of Studies in Science • A review of Biology
Laws of Conservation of Matter and Energy • Matter is never created or destroyed, it is only changed from one state to another • Energy is never created or destroyed, it is only changed from one type to another
Physical Changes • A physical change does not change the molecular formula • Examples include cutting hair, mowing grass, breaking glass, freezing, melting, boiling
Chemical Changes • A chemical change changes the molecular formula of a substance. • Examples include burning, rusting, cooking, bleaching
Bonding of atoms • Atoms attach to one another based on the number and position of their electrons to form new compounds. • Two main types of bonding include: Ionic – Metal to nonmetal one atom gives up electrons to another atom Covalent – Nonmetal to nonmetal two atoms share electrons
Chemical reactions • Many different types of chemical reactions can occur when various materials come in contact with one another. • Three main types of chemical reactions are: Synthesis Decomposition Combustion
Synthesis Two or more substance combine to form one substance
Decomposition One substance breaks down into two or more substances
Combustion A hydrocarbon and oxygen form water and a carbon product. Burning wood is a form of combustion.
Polymers • Large chains of molecules covalently bonded • Plastics are a well-known manmade polymer
Acids – sour and conduct electricity pH 1 - 6
Temperature is a measure of the kinetic energy of a material’s molecules. The more energy the higher the temperature
Electromagnetism We can make magnets using electricity and we make electricity using spinning magnets.
Magnetism Magnets always have 2 poles. Magnetic force gets stronger as one gets closer to the magnet.
Electricity Electricity is the movement of electrons along a conductive material such as wire covered with an insulating material.
Ohm’s Law Voltage Current = Resistance Voltage =strength of electrical current Current =speed of electric charge Resistance=opposition to the flow of electricity
Types of circuits: Series circuit Electricity travels along one path and a break in the wire cuts power to all devices on the circuit.
Types of circuits: Parallel circuit Electricity travels along several different paths and a break in the wire may only limit power to a single device on the circuit.
Nonrenewable energy • Fossil fuels (oil, natural gas) • Nuclear fission (splitting atoms) • Nuclear fusion (joining atoms)
Renewable energy • Wind power Biomass fuels • Water power Hydrogen fuel cells • Geothermal
Air pollution • Smog • Excessive Greenhouse gases
Global climate change • The greenhouse effect, which has always been a benefit, is now increasing to dangerous levels.
Water pollution • Acid rain • Eutrophication (from agricultural waste)
Soil pollution • Unbalanced pH (from agriculture: pesticides, and fertilizer) • Landfills (from human garbage) • Brownfields (toxic substances from industry)
Cell theory & Robert Hooke • All living things are composed • of cells. • Cells give form and function • to living things. • Cells come from other living cells
Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic Cells No nucleus Nucleus
Cell membrane The cell membrane is a selectively permeable lipid bilayer with carrier proteins embedded in it.
Passive and active transport Passive transport requires no energy (high to low) Active transport requires energy in the form of ATP
