Answer:
0!
Explanation:
- You need to search your pKa values for Asn (2.14, 8.75), Gly (2.35, 9.78) and Leu(2.33, 9.74), the first value corresponding to -COOH, the second to -NH3 (a third value would correspond to an R group, but in this case that does not apply), and we'll build a table to find the charges for your possible dissociated groups at indicated pH (7), we need to remember that having a pKa lower than the pH will give us a negative charge, having a pKa bigger than pH will give us a positive charge:
-COOH -NH3
pH 7------------------------------------------------------
Asn - +
Gly - +
Leu - +
- Now that we have our table we'll sketch our peptide's structure:
<em>HN-Asn-Gly-Leu-COOH</em>
This will allow us to see what groups will be free to react to the pH's value, and which groups are not reacting to pH because are forming the bond between amino acids. In this particular example only -NH group in Ans and -COOH in Leu are exposed to pH, we'll look for these charges in the table and add them to find the net charge:
+1 (HN-Asn)
-1 (Leu-COOH)
=0
The net charge is 0!
I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
Answer:
, the solution is basic
Explanation:
pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
Acids have pH ranging from 1 to 6.9 and bases have pH ranging from 7.1 to 14.Neutral substances have pH of 7.
![pH=-\log [H_3O^+]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3D-%5Clog%20%5BH_3O%5E%2B%5D)
![pOH=-\log[OH^-]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pOH%3D-%5Clog%5BOH%5E-%5D)
Putting in the values:
![pOH=-\log[5.5\times 10^{-5}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pOH%3D-%5Clog%5B5.5%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-5%7D%5D)



![9.8=-\log [H_3O^+]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=9.8%3D-%5Clog%20%5BH_3O%5E%2B%5D)
![[H_3O^+]=1.6\times 10^{-10}M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BH_3O%5E%2B%5D%3D1.6%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-10%7DM)
As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic
Solute is what gets dissovled, in this case the salt, and the solVENT is whatever a material is dissolved into, in this case the water.
Answer: A group 1 alkali metal bonded to fluoride, such as LiF.
Explanation:
Electronegativity is defined as the property of an element to attract a shared pair of electron towards itself. The size of an atom increases as we move down the group because a new shell is added and electron gets added up.
1. A strong acid made of hydrogen and a halogen, such as HCl : A polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is a difference of electronegativities between the atoms. Electronegativity difference = electronegativity of chlorine - electronegativity of hydrogen = 3-2.1= 0.9
2. A group 1 alkali metal bonded to fluoride, such as LiF: Ionic bond is formed when there is complete transfer of electron from a highly electropositive metal to a highly electronegative non metal.
Electronegativity difference = electronegativity of fluorine - electronegativity of lithium= 4-1= 3
3. Carbon bonded to a group 6A (16) nonmetal chalcogen, such as in CO: A polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is a difference of electronegativities between the atoms.
Electronegativity difference = electronegativity of oxygen - electronegativity of carbon= 3.5-2.5= 1.0
4. A diatomic gas, such as nitrogen
: Non-polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is no difference of electronegativities between the atoms.
Electronegativity difference = 0
Thus the greatest electronegativity difference between the bonded atoms is in LiF.
The answer is an action potential reaching the end of the axon.
