Describe the R group found within an amino acid

Chemistry
1 answer:
madreJ [45]3 years ago
5 0

Hello!

An amino acid has five basic parts. An amino group, a carboxyl group, a central carbon atom, a hydrogen, and a R group.

The r group is the side chain specific to each amino acid. The r group varies between each kind of amino acid, while everything else stays the same. Therefore, the r group decides the identity of the amino acid.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you need a more specific explanation.

What happened to the weather after mount tambora epurted?
storchak [24]

Answer:

The eruption of Mount Tambora eventually reduced the average global temperature by as much as 3 °C.

Explanation:

The Mount Tambora eruption was the largest and most destructive volcanic event in recorded history, expelling as much as 150 cubic km (roughly 36 cubic miles) of ash, pumice, and other rock, and aerosols—including an estimated 60 megatons of sulfur—into the atmosphere. As that material mixed with atmospheric gases, it prevented substantial amounts of sunlight from reaching Earth’s surface, eventually reducing the average global temperature by as much as 3 °C.

A small cube of iron and a large flat sheet of iron contain the same volume. Which one will completely rust first? Explain why.
Hunter-Best [27]

The flat sheet will completely rust before the iron cube. Since they both have the same volume, the flat sheet has more surface area than the small cube. This means more particles are exposed on the flat sheet that can react in a chemical reaction.
