At physiological ph, the ionized state of the carboxyl (cooh) group in the r group of aspartic acid is:

1 answer:

3 0

Answer is: the ionized state of the carboxyl group is COO⁻.
Physiological pH is 7,4 and carboxyl group in the R group has pKa = 3,7. Since this pKa is lower than physiological pH of 7,4, carboxyl group (COOH) will lost proton, and because of that it will be deprotonated and will have negative charge.
Aspartic acid is an α-amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins.

What happens when an ecosystem reaches the maximum number of individuals it can support

tangare [24]

Answer:

A collapse of the population is rotting, food is not enough and livelihoods have become unfeasible to decrease the number of individuals again.

Another way is to generate mutations to generate a species more vulnerable to decreasing numbers.

In this way the overpopulation is controlled.

Explanation:

In ecosystems, if an increased population breaks the balance of this and begins a new constant adaptation of the extinction of some and overpopulation of others, which may be some chains break or remain unstable.

How would having too much sample in the melting point tube most likely affect the melting point measurement? Select the correct

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

2-4 mm height of capillary tube.

Explanation:

Sample should be around 2-4 mm in height.

It should be packed well so that it does not have air packets that caues the lowering of melting point.

If you take greater amount, then there will be needed more heat, resulting a wide range of melting point.

1. In the first step of the mechanism for this process, a phenoxide anion is generated. This phenoxide anion goes on to act as a

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

See the explanation

Explanation:

In this case, in order to get an elimination reaction we need to have a strong base. In this case, the base is the phenoxide ion produced the phenol (see figure 1).

Due to the resonance, we will have a more stable anion therefore we will have a less strong base because the negative charge is moving around the molecule (see figure 2).

Finally, the phenoxide will attack the primary carbon attached to the Cl. The C-Cl bond would be broken and the C-O would be produced at the same time to get a substitution (see figure 1).
