Summary of Chapter 2: Measurement and Problem Solving

Global warming has become a household term. Average global temperatures affect agriculture, weather, and ocean levels. The media report that global temperatures are increasing. These reports are based on the work of scientists who—after analyzing records from thousands of temperature-measuring stations around the world concluded that average global temperatures have risen by 0.6 °C in the last century.

Avogadro’s law.
At constant pressure and temperature, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of the gas present. (5.3)
boat conformation
A conformation of cyclohexane in which all bond angles are fairly close to 109.5° and many hydrogen atoms are eclipsing each other.
boiling point.
The temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the external atmospheric pressure. (11.8)
decomposition reaction.
The breakdown of a compound into two or more components. (4.4)
denaturation
A process during which a protein unfolds under conditions of mild heating.
deoxyribonucleic acids (DNA).
A type of nucleic acid. (25.4)
diazotization
The process of forming a diazonium salt by treating a primary amine with NaNO2 and HCl.
Dipole-dipole interaction
The attraction between the positive end of one dipole and the negative end of another.
inversion of configuration
During a reaction, when the configuration of a chirality center is changed.
Lewis acid
Any molecule or ion that can form a new covalent bond by accepting a pair of electrons.
mineral
A solid, inorganic substance occurring in nature, such as calcium carbonate, which occurs as calcite. (Section 23.1)
