What to Study – Organic Compounds
- Carbohydrate, Lipid, Protein, & Nucleic Acid notes in booklet
o elements, special groups, ratios, building blocks [monomers],
categories, functions, etc. – study all of it!
- Testing for Organic Compounds Lab – know positive tests for each
type of organic molecule, colors that indicate a positive test, names of
indicators used, etc.
- Carbohydrate, Lipid, and Protein models and questions on direction
pages
- Enzyme lab – what is catalase, what food reacted most, etc.
- Biomolecule review pages in booklet
- Elements found in each type of biomolecule and what
molecules[monomers] combine to make each biomolecule [polymer]
- What do you look for to identify each type of organic molecule?
Elements? Special Groups?
- What do living things use each type of molecule for [function]?
- Given a chemical or structural formula of a biomolecule be able to
identify it as organic or inorganic, and whether it is a carbohydrate,
lipid, protein, or nucleic acid
- Equations for making sucrose and lactose including the molecular
formula equations. Understand dehydration synthesis [condensation
reactions] and hydrolysis. Recognize them going both directions
- Examples of each type of carbohydrate – mono, di , and poly
- Terms: monosaccharide, disaccharide, polysaccharide, condensation
reaction [dehydration synthesis], hydrolysis, isomer, carboxyl group,
amine group, R group, hydrocarbon chain, hydrophobic, hydrophilic,
peptide bond, catalyst, enzyme, activation energy, substrate, active
site, amino acid, fatty acid, glycerol, ester bond, saturated fat,
unsaturated fat, polyunsaturated fat
- Be able to determine how many water molecules are formed when the
building blocks [monomers] are joined to make an organic molecule.
- Know that lipids contain more energy than carbohydrates due to
having more C-H bonds. Which has more calories?
