Charge:

An electron has a negative charge and a neutron has a neutral charge.

Size:

Electrons have a really small mass whereas the neutron has a mass of about 1 amu.

Location:

Neutrons are found in center of an atom, but electrons are around it.

Number:

The number of electrons and neutrons in atom varies.

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

Wewaii [24]

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.

A compound contains only carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen. Combustion of 0.157g of the compound produced 0.213g of CO2 and

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

$C_{7} H_{5}N_{3}O_{6}$

Explanation:

First reaction gives you the number of moles or the mass from Carbon and hydrogen

for carbon:

$0,213gCO_{2} .\frac{1molCO_{2}}{44gCO_{2}} .\frac{1molC}{1molCO_{2}} =0.005molC$

$0.213gCO_{2} .\frac{1molCO_{2}}{44gCO_{2}} .\frac{1molC}{1molCO_{2}} .\frac{12gC}{1molC} = 0.058gC\\$

Analogously for hydrogen:

0.0310g $H_{2}O$ have 0.0034gH or 0.0034mol of H

In the second reaction you can obtain the amount of nitrogen as a percentage and find the mass of N in the first sample.

$0.023gNH_{3} .\frac{1molNH_{3}}{17gNH_{3}} .\frac{1molN}{1molNH_{3}} .\frac{14gN}{1molN} \frac{100}{0.103gsample} =18.4%N$

now

$\frac{18.4gN}{100gsample} .0.157gsample=0.0289gN in the first reaction$

this is equivalet to 0.002mol of N

with this information you can find the mass of oxygen by matter conservation.

$gO=total mass-(gN+gC+gH)=0.157-(0.0289+0.058+0.0034)=0.0666gO$

this is equivalent to 0.004molO

finally you divide all moles obtained between the smaller number of mole (this is mol of H)

$C\frac{0.0048}{0.0034} H\frac{0.0034}{0.0034} N\frac{0.002}{0.0034} O\frac{0.004}{0.0034} =C_{1.4} HN_{0.6} O_{1.2}$

and you can multiply by 5 to obtain: $C_{7} H_{5}N_{3}O_{6}$
