How
is
Bonding
related
to
Valence?
Valence
Number:
1. Valence
number
of
an
element
is
the
typical
number
of
______
it
makes
with
other
atoms.
2. Each
element
is
different
in
the
number
of
bonds
it
prefers
to
make.
Why?
3. Each
single
bond
is
made
of
___
shared
electrons.
Valence
Electrons:
1. How
do
you
determine
number
of
valence
electrons
owned
by
each
element?
2. When
bonds
are
made,
each
atom
tries
to
______
its
outer
shell.
3. The
number
of
electrons
needed
to
fill
up
the
outer
shell
is
___
(1st
Row),
_____
(2nd
Row),
or
_______
(3rd
row)
To
understand
Biological
Molecules,
we
need
to
understand
bonding
• To
understand
bonding,
we
need
to
understand
electrons:
1. For
a
neutral
atom,
the
number
of
electrons
equals
the
number
_____________
2. For
a
neutral
atom,
the
total
number
of
electrons
is
the
same
as
the
_____________
3. Inner
shell
electrons
are
buried
and
don’t
interact
with
the
environment
4. Outershell
(valence)
electrons
can
be
shared
in
bonds
or
unshared
in
lone
pairs
5. The
number
of
outershell
electrons
is
the
same
for
each
of
the
elements
in
a
____________
in
the
periodic
table

Structure
of
some
Sugars
• Glucose,
one
of
many
sugars
that
our
body
can
use,
is
an
aldo-‐sugar,
with
the
double
bonded
oxygen
at
the
end
of
the
chain.
• Glucose
is
used
directly,
many
others
are
converted
into
glucose
• Both
six
carbon
sugars
(hexoses)
and
five
carbon
sugars
(pentoses)
are
used
Carbohydrate:
Simple
and
Complex
• All
sugars
have
the
suffix:
-‐ose
• Simple
sugars
(glucose,
fructose,
lactose)
are
monosaccharides
• Complex
Sugars
are
two
or
more
simple
sugars
a8ached
together
• the
disaccharide
sucrose,
is
1
glucose
+
1
fructose
a8ached

• polysaccharides:
such
as
glycogen
are
used
to
store
carbs
in
liver
and
muscle
for
later
and
cellulose
in
plants

Ques7ons
I’d
like
to
Ask
Ques7ons
Others
Asked
The
ABO
blood
group
differ
in
the
kind
of
sugars
on
the
red
blood
cell
• They
are
produced
by
a
series
of
reac7ons
in
which
enzymes
catalyze
the
transfer
of
sugar
units
to
the
outer
membrane
of
the
red
blood
cells.
• A
person's
DNA
determines
the
type
of
enzymes
they
have,
and,
therefore,
the
type
of
sugar
that
end
up
on
their
red
blood
cells

The

of
sugars
on

• The
func7ons
of
many
of
the

an7gens
are
not
known,
and
if
they
are
missing
from
the
red

cell
membrane,
there
is
no
ill
effect.
• This
suggests
that
if
the
blood
group
an7gens
used
to
have
a
func7on,
e.g.,
one
par7cular
blood

an7gen

it
is
no
