MIDTERM EXAMINATION TEST IN PHYSICAL SCIENCE 12

____1. These attractions are much stronger than intermolecular forces - on the order of 30 – 400x stronger.
____2. These attractions are also known as van der Waals forces.
____3. It is the weakest force of attraction.
____4. These forces are stronger than London dispersion forces
____5. It is the strongest intermolecular force.
____6. Intermolecular forces that bind like molecules to one another (e.g. hydrogen bonding).
____7. Intermolecular forces that bind a substance to a surface.
____8. A measure of the inward forces that must be overcome in order to expand the surface area of a liquid.
____9. Another way surface tension manifests.
____10. The resistance of a liquid to flow.
____11. It is a long molecule consisting of many similar building blocks.
____12. This are large molecules composed of thousands of covalently connected atoms
____13. This was occurs when two monomers bond together through the loss of a water molecule
____14. They are classified either as simple or complex.
____15. These are important nutrients in your body but eating too many especially unhealthy fats such as saturated fats and
Trans fats can lead to heart disease, cancer, and obesity.
____16. Storage form of glucose in plants
____17. Structural material in plants---cell wall in wood, wood fiber cannot be digested by humans.
____18. Found in milk and milk products.
____19. Found in fruits and honey.
____20. Used in dextrose, blood sugar, the form utilized by the human body.
____21. Found in malt.
____22. Found in regular table sugar, sugarcane, and sugar beet.
____23. It is a structural protein found in hair, skin, and nails.
____24. It is found in silk.
____25. It is a major insoluble fibrous protein found in connective tissues such as tendons, ligaments, skin, cartilage and the
cornea of the eye.
____26. Helps in digestion of fats.
____27. Helps in breaking down proteins into peptides (smaller units).
____28. Fats that have two carbons attached to each carbon (except the one at the end).
____29. A fat that has missing at least one hydrogen and are curl in shape.
____30. It was discovered by a 24-year old Swiss physician named Friedrich Miescher in 1868.
II. TRUE OR FALSE. Write TRUE if the statement is correct and FALSE if the statement is incorrect.
____1. DNA is a nucleic acid that carries the genetic code of organisms. It is fondly termed as the blueprint of life. RNA, on
another hand, carries the information from the DNA to the cellular factories for the synthesis of proteins.
____2. If proteins are composed of saccharide units, proteins of amino acids, and lipids of fatty acids, nucleic acids are
composed of nucleotides.
____3. Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) and Ribonucleic Acid (RNA). DNA is the blueprint of life because it contains instructions
on how to make proteins in the body.
____4. The collision theory states that reacting substances must come into contact (collide) with enough activation energy,
and in the correct orientation (facing the correct way), so that their electron shells can rearrange to form the products of the
reaction.
____5. When two particles repel, sometimes a chemical reaction can occur, which means the bonds between two or more
particles are broken and reformed, creating one or more new substances.
____6. . The particles must come into contact with one another or repel.
____7. The particles must collide with enough energy to break their chemical bonds. The amount of energy that must be
available for a reaction to occur is often referred to as the activation energy. It is the measure of the change in the
concentration of the reactants or products.
____8. The reaction rate of a chemical reaction is a measurement of the decrease in the concentration of a product or the
decrease in the concentration of a reactant as the reaction proceeds over time.
____9. When a collision provides energy equal to or greater than the activation energy, product can form. On the other hand,
if the particles have energy that is less than the activation energy, the collision is not effective, and they just bounce off each
other unchanged.
____10. Usually, a rise in temperature of 10 0C doubles the reaction rate. The rate of a chemical reaction increases with
decreasing temperature.
____11. As the temperature increases, collision between atoms and molecules becomes faster resulting to build up of more
energy.
____12. The rate of a chemical reaction is affected by the concentration of reacting substances. The term concentration refers
to the number of particles present in a given volume of solution.
____13. In a reaction between a solid and a gas, the more finely divided a solid is, the faster is the rate of reaction.
____14. A catalyst is a substance which speeds up a reaction, but is chemically unchanged at its end.
____15. When the reaction has finished, the mass of catalyst is not the same as at the beginning.
____16. Likewise, as you powdered a solid, its surface area becomes greater, thus the particles have higher chance of
colliding and faster reaction happens.
____17. To form new bonds, atoms must come in contact with each other and have correct relative orientations so that the
correct bonds are formed, atoms transfer to the correct positions.
____18. There are two factors that determine whether a reaction will occur between two particles that are colliding: 1.
Substances or particles of reactants must physically collide with enough energy 2. Substance or particles must come into
contact or collide in the correct orientation (facing the correct way).
____19. Hemoglobin is a polypeptide that stores oxygen in muscles.
____20. Enzymes function to catalyze chemical reactions.
