Answer:
At physiological pH,the carboxylic acid group of an amino acid will be deprotonated while the amino group will be protonated,yielding the zwitter ion form.
Explanation:
Deprotonated means removal of protons in an acid base reaction and protonated means addition of protons in an acid base reaction.
Both protonated and de protonated reaction takes place in catalytic acid bade reaction by changing either it's mass or it's charge.
During formation of zwitter ion, the carboxylic acid will be deprotonated by donating the H+ ion while the amino acid is protonated by taking the H+ ion.

Trees and forest play an important role in balancing the amount of Carbon in the atmosphere through the process of photosynthesis where plants make their own food with carbon dioxide, using energy from the sunlight. Therefore, deforestation (cutting down of trees) has an effect on the carbon cycle also the greenhouse gas effect and global warming. Deforestation reduces the removal component of this cycle, thus, increasing the carbon dioxide in the air.

Answer:
C. The first ionization energy decreases because the outermost
electron is farther from the nucleus.
Explanation:
Ionization energy trend along group:
As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.
As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.
Ionization energy trend along period:
As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction. The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases and ionization energy increases because it is very difficult to remove the electron from atom and more energy is required.
Answer:
Alkaline
Explanation:
In an alkaline solution, red litmus paper turns blue. When an alkaline compound dissolves in water, it produces hydroxide ions, which cause the solution to become alkaline.
