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.

What occurs along a convergent plate boundary ?
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Two plates pull towards each other

Explanation:

Along a convergent plate boundary, two plates moves towards each other as the move in the same direction.

This results in different forms of plate interactions depending on the plate types.

  • At an ocean - ocean and continental - ocean convergent front, subduction of the oceanic plate occurs. This is because the oceanic plate below is denser than the asthenosphere.
  • At a continental - continental convergent front, the continental crust is pulls upward and build up as a mountain.
  • The subduction produces trenches and some volcanic islands.

1 message Which process results in the increase in entropy of the universe? the cooling of a hot cup of coffee in room temperatu
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Melting of snow

Evaporation of water from desk

Explanation:

Processes that increase the entropy of the universe are those processes that have an increased disorderliness. We should note that there are three principal states of matter which are the liquid, gas and solid. The gaseous state is the most disorderly while the solid is the least disorderly.

Now. We can see that the cooling of a hot cup of coffee is a process that needs or leads to a loss in temperature which obviously decreases disorderliness of the universe.

The melting of snow however is a process that leads to an increase in the disorderliness of the universe. It entails moving from the solid state to the liquid state. It tends to move to a more disordered state indicating an increase in the entropy of the universe.

The evaporation of water from the desk is quite similar to that above. Hence since we are moving from the liquid to the gaseous state via evaporation, we can state that the entropy of the universe has increased since we have moved from a state with a lesser degree of disorderliness to a state that is more disordered I.e from liquid to gaseous state.
