Answer:
The net charge on each lysine molecule would be -1.
Explanation:
- <u>When the pH is above 2.2</u> the deprotonated form of the carboxylic acid is more present, while the amino group and side chain (which is also amino) remain protonated (with a positive charge):
R-COOH ↔ R-COO⁻
R-NH₃⁺
R'-NH₃⁺
Net charge = +1
- <u>When pH is above 9.0</u>, the carboxyl group remains deprotonated, while the amino group is deprotonated and the side chain is protonated:
R-COOH ↔ R-COO⁻
R-NH₂
R'-NH₃⁺
Net charge = 0
- <u>When pH is above 10.5</u>, the carboxyl group remains deprotonated, while both the amino group and the side chain are deprotonated:
R-COOH ↔ R-COO⁻
R-NH₂
R'-NH₂
Net charge = -1
So at pH=13 (which is above 10.5) the net charge is -1.
Answer is: Benzene is trigonal (or triangular) planar.
VSEPR theory (The Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory) uses the AXE notation (m and n are integers, m + n = number of regions of electron density).
For benzene molecule (C₆H₆):
m = 3; the number of atoms bonded to the central atom.
n = 0; the number of lone pairs on the central atom.
Answer:
compound
Explanation:
When two distinct elements are chemically combined—i.e., chemical bonds form between their atoms—the result is called a chemical compound. Most elements on Earth bond with other elements to form chemical compounds, such as sodium (Na) and Chloride (Cl), which combine to form table salt (NaCl).
