SUMMARY
In chapter 15 it basicly explained what a chemical compound is, and also what are different types of chemical compunds. In the first section it talked about ionic compounds and covalent compounds. The secton pretty much explained what the properties of ionic and covalent compounds were. for ionic compounds they included brittleness,high melting points, and high solubility and electrical conductivity, but for covalent compounds they incuded low solubility,low melting points, and electrical conductivity. For section 2 of chapter 15 it talked about acids and bases. The properties of acids included that they have a sour flavor, react to metals, they change colors in indicators, and they conduct electric current .Section 2 of chapter 15 also talked about bases and their properties, for the properties of bases they included having a bitter flavor and slippery feel, change color in indicators and conduct electric current. Now in section 3 of chapter 15 it talked about ph scale and solutions of acids and bases, such an neutralization reaction which is when acids neutrilize one another. The section also talked about salts(which is a solution from acids and bases) and uses of salts such as seasoning food, melting ice, and used in constuction. The last section of chapter 15 talked about organic compounds and different types of organic compounds. One example of an organic compound is a hydrocarbon, two types of hydrocarbons include saturated, unsaturated, and aromatic hydrocarbons. Section 4 also talked about biochemicals which include carbohydrates, lipids, and protiens.
