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.

Describe how the air pressure on Earth affects the weather.
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:  

As the pressure decreases, the amount of oxygen available to breathe also decreases. Atmospheric pressure is an indicator of weather. When a low-pressure system moves into an area, it usually leads to cloudiness, wind, and precipitation. High-pressure systems usually lead to fair, calm weather.

Would Li CO2 and LiOH produce the same colors? Explain your thinking.
saul85 [17]

Answer:

Lithium hydroxide is a base.

Carbon dioxide is the anhydride of the carbonic acid, H₂CO₃.

Therefore, the reaction awaited is a typical neutralization reaction with the formation of a salt and water.

2LiOH + CO₂ → Li₂CO₃ + H₂O

So, 2*20 = 40 moles of LiOH react with 20 moles of CO₂.

Molar Mass of LiOH = 23.95 g/mol

So, 40 * 23.95 = 958 g
