2.1 The three major forms in which matter occurs naturally are: • Solid • Liquid • Gas 2.2.1 Sodium (Na) belongs to Group 1 (Alkali Metals) on the periodic table. 2.2.2 The process taking place in DIAGRAM 3 is ionic bonding (or electron transfer). 2.2.3 Sodium (Na) has one valence electron. To achieve a stable electron configuration (octet rule), it loses this electron to form a positively charged ion, Na^+. 2.2.4 The chemical bond formed during the combination of the two atoms in DIAGRAM 3 is an ionic bond. 2.2.5 The final product formed from the process in DIAGRAM 3 is Sodium Chloride (NaCl). 2.2.6 The Lewis structure of Chlorine (Cl) in DIAGRAM 2 is: :Cl: 2.3.1 a) D: Organic b) C: Inorganic c) B: Inorganic d) A: Organic 2.3.2 Organic compounds* (like A and D) are typically characterized by the presence of carbon atoms bonded to hydrogen atoms. Inorganic compounds* (like B and C) generally do not contain carbon atoms, or if they do (e.g., CO_2), they lack carbon-hydrogen bonds. 2.4.1 A: Butanoic acid (or a carboxylic acid) B: Glucose (or a monosaccharide) C: Triglyceride (or fat/oil) 2.4.2 The product formed by combining two molecules represented by B (e.g., two glucose molecules) is a disaccharide (e.g., maltose). 2.4.3 Two differences between saturated and unsaturated fatty acids are: • Saturated fatty acids contain only single bonds between carbon atoms in their hydrocarbon chains, while unsaturated fatty acids contain one or more double or triple bonds between carbon atoms. • Saturated fatty acids are typically solid at room temperature, whereas unsaturated fatty acids are typically liquid at room temperature.
