PPT-Biochemistry: Monomers and Polymers

Carbohydrates lipids proteins and nucleic acids Monomers Glucose Amino acids Nucleotides Fatty acids Polymers Carbohydrates Nucleic acids Lipids Proteins Carbohydrates The word carbohydrate literally means watered carbon. Formations and linkages. What are polymers?. Alkene. molecules have the ability to add onto one another and produce large molecules these are polymers. . Therefore what are monomers?. The process of these large molecules forming is termed addition polymerisation.. C. hemistry and Biology:. . BASF`s Biodegradable . and. R. enewable Polymers. Andreas . Künkel. , Vice President. Biopolymers Research BASF SE. Biopolymers and Bioplastics. San Francisco, USA. , August . AND . POLYMERIZATION. By. Dr Rashid Hassan. Assistant Professor. RIHS. ISLAMABAD. 1. POLYMER. Poly = Many mer = Units. I.e. a material made up of many units.. Properly defined as:. Chemical compound composed of large organic molecules formed by the union of many repeating small monomer units.. . Polymers. are large molecules made up of repeating units called . Monomers. The synthetic process is. Polymerization.. E.g. . Note – define repeating unit in terms of monomer structure. Degree of Polymerization. Polymers. are long molecules made of repeating units, called . monomers. .. In general. :. Specific example. :. Forces between polymer chains: Crosslinks. Weak: Intermolecular . force crosslinks. Strong: Colvalent. Explain the difference between an addition reaction and a condensation polymerization reaction. Draw polymer structural diagram, given the monomer.. Draw monomer . structure(s. ), given the polymer.. Bellwork. : Please turn in your Meal Breakdown sheets and posters to table 7 marked with your class period. . On the sheet of paper you picked up:. Title: Quiz 2. Name. Period. Date. Number it 1-10. Science Fact of the Day:. 1. What is Biochemistry?. Biochemistry = chemistry of life. . Biochemists use physical and chemical principles to explain biology at the molecular level.. Basic principles of biochemistry are common to all living organism. D 15.  Explain the general formation and structure of carbon-based polymers, including synthetic polymers, such as polyethylene, and biopolymers, such as carbohydrate. . Content Standard . What is a monomer and what is a polymer?. and . MER. means . repeating unit. .. Polymers. are macromolecules formed by joining of repeating structural units on a large scale.. The repeating structural units are called . Monomers. .. Polymerisation. Phenomenon:. . experiment by pouring the gel. Have you ever seen anything that acts like this gel?. What is happening to the molecules to make it act this way?. Show the beads in the jar and how they will keep falling out after you start them.. Let’s review: . What are the 4 macromolecules of life?. Let’s Review . 2. What are the monomers of each macromolecule?. 3. What are the polymers of of each macromolecules. 4. Predict: How do you think we go from monomer to polymer?. Learning Objectives:. LO 4.1 . The student is able to explain the connection between the sequence and the subcomponents of a biological polymer and its properties. [See . SP 7.1. ].  . LO 4.2 . The student is able to refine representations and models to explain how the subcomponents of a biological polymer and their sequence determine the properties of that polymer. [See . The Subatomic Particles, Charges and Where They are Found. Protons. Electrons. Neutrons. Positive +. Negative -. Neutral. In. Nucleus. Around Nucleus---Electron Shell/Cloud. In Nucleus. Why do unstable atoms bond?.
