7 0
A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding.

Why the ph of glycine increases when 0.1 M NaOH is added dropwise​
shtirl [24]

Answer:

The acid-base reaction produces glycine reduction, and hence the increase of glycine pH.

Explanation:

The glycine is an amino acid with the following chemical formula:

NH₂CH₂COOH  

The COOH functional group is what gives the acid properties in the molecule.      

Hence, when NaOH is added to glycine an acid-base reaction takes place in which COOH reacts with the NaOH added:

NH₂CH₂COOH + OH⁻ ⇄ NH₂CH₂COO⁻ + H₂O

The glycine concentration starts to shift to its ion form (NH₂CH₂COO⁻) because of the reaction with NaOH, that is why the pH glycine increases when NaOH is added.  

Therefore, the acid-base reaction produces glycine reduction, and hence the increase of glycine pH.  

I hope it helps you!

This image shows the development of what climate phenomenon?
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Rain shadow

Explanation:

Climate is the average weather condition of a place over a long period of time.

The image shows a rain shadow effect around a mountainous region. The type of rainfall controlled this way is known as an orographic rainfall.

  • On the leeward side which is the opposite side of where the rain cloud forms, there is dryness and lack of rainfall.
  • As moist air rises along the edge of the windward side, cloud forms.
  • This windward side receives a significant amount of rainfall
  • The windward side is hit with cold and dry wind and it is barren.
