Biomolecules Carbon Based Molecules Types of Biomolecules •Carbohydrates •Proteins •Lipids •Nucleic Acids (DNA, RNA) Simple Organic Chemistry • Chemistry of Carbon • Large # of molecules can be formed from C, H, O and N • Covalent bond used to share electrons • Carbon has 4 bonds available • Ex. Methane • Carbon test – burns black Carbon Bonds • Single – sharing one pair of electrons • Double – sharing two pairs of electrons • Triple – sharing three pairs of electrons Structural Formulas of Hydrocarbons Straight chains Branched chains Rings Review • Give an example of a biomolecule. • How many electron pairs are shared in a double bond? • What structural forms can hydrocarbons take? • How many bonds does carbon have available?
