Which of the following accounts for the differences among the various amino acids

Chemistry
1 answer:
g100num [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The correct option is: b. the side chain

Explanation:

Amino acids are biomolecules that contain an alpha-carbon (α-C) attached to two functional groups- carboxyl group (-COOH) and amine group (-NH₂), and an organic side chain (-R).

<em>The carboxyl and amine functional groups are common in all amino acids but the </em><u><em>side chain is distinctive to each amino acid.</em></u>

<u><em>Thus the amino acids can be easily classified on the basis of the properties of this organic side chain</em></u>.

<u />

<u>Therefore, the various amino acids have different side chains.</u>

The mass of an electron is 9.11× 10–31 kg. What is the uncertainty in the position of an electron moving at 2.00 × 106 m/s with
Kruka [31]
Just use the Heisenberg Uncertainty principle: 

<span>ΔpΔx = h/2*pi </span>

<span>Δp = the uncertainty in momentum </span>
<span>Δx = the uncertainty in position </span>
<span>h = 6.626e-34 J s (plank's constant) </span>

<span>Hint: </span>

<span>to calculate Δp use the fact that the uncertainty in the momentum is 1% (0.01) so that </span>

<span>Δp = mv*(0.01) </span>

<span>m = mass of electron </span>
<span>v = velocity of electron </span>

<span>Solve for Δx </span>

<span>Δx = h/(2*pi*Δp) </span>

<span>And that is the uncertainty in position. </span>

What is the net ionic equation for 2Sb(OH)3 (s) + 3Na2S (aq) = Sb2S3 + 6NaOH
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

2Sb^(+3) (aq) + 3S^(-2) (aq) = Sb_2•S_3

Explanation:

First of all, let us balance the equation to give;

2Sb(OH)3 (s) + 3Na2S (aq) = Sb2S3 + 3NaOH

Now, we can observe the presence of positive Sodium ions (Na+) and negative hydroxyl ions (OH-) on both left and right sides of the equation.

Now, the two ions will cancel out. These ions are not really involved in the overall reaction and thus do not require being written in the overall equation. Hence, the overall net ionic reaction can now be written as:

2Sb^(+3) (aq) + 3S^(-2) (aq) = Sb_2•S_3

rutherford's experiment indicated that matter was not as uniform as it appears what part of his experimental results implied thi
MaRussiya [10]

Rutherford theorized that atoms have their charge concentrated in a very small nucleus.

This was famous Rutherford's Gold Foil Experiment: he bombarded thin foil of gold with positive alpha particles (helium atom particles, consist of two protons and two neutrons).  

Rutherford observed the deflection of alpha particles on the photographic film and notice that most of alpha particles passed straight through foil.

That is different from Plum Pudding model, because it shows that most of the atom is empty space.

According to Rutherford model of the atom:

1) Atoms have their charge concentrated in a very small nucleus.

2) Major space in an atom is empty.

3) Atoms nucleus is surrounded by negatively charged particles called electrons.  

4) An atom is electrically neutral.
