Explanation

In examining several amino acids, the amino acid group will remain same the difference will be generated by the 'R' group attached to the chain.

'R' group can be :

  • Single long chain of carbons with saturated carbon-carbon bond.
  • Single long chain with unsaturated carbon-carbon bond Including aromatic carbon rings.
  • Branched chain with saturated carbon-carbon bond
  • Branched chain with unsaturated carbon-carbon bond.
  • Presence of any other atoms like : sulfur, oxygen, phosphorus etc.

For example: alanine and methionine are different amino acids. since the amino acid part is same but the only difference in them is in alanine CH_3 group is present as a 'R' group whereas in methionine long unbranched carbon chain with sulfur atom is present as a'R' group.

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

A) pH of Buffer solution = 4.59

B) pH after 5.0 ml of 2.0 M NaOH have been added to 400 ml of the original    buffer solution = 4.65

Explanation:

This  is the Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation:

 pH = pKa + log\frac{[conjugate base]}{[acid]}

to calculate the pH of the following Buffer solutions.

Why should we never change a symbol in chemistry?
Mrac [35]

Answer:

Chemical symbols are used to standardize the 'language of chemistry' and to identify elements and atoms in a chemical formula easily. Chemical symbols consist of one or two letters, most often derived from the name of the element.
