Explanation:
A change that does not cause any change in chemical composition of a substance is known as a physical change.
For example, mass, density, volume etc are all physical changes.
On the other hand, a change that brings change in chemical composition of a substance is known as chemical change.
For example, combustion, toxicity, reactivity etc are all chemical changes.
Hence, following statements are identified as chemical or physical changes as follows.
(a) Oxygen gas supports combustion : Chemical change
(b) Fertilizers help to increase agricultural production : Chemical change
(c) Water boils below
on top of a mountain : Physical change
(d) Lead is denser than aluminum : Physical change
(e) Uranium is a radioactive element : Chemical change
Answer:
Peptide bonds form from nucleophilic attack by an α‑carboxyl carbon atom on an electron pair of an α‑amino nitrogen atom of another amino acid.
Explanation:
Peptide bond is a form of covalent bond and it is Amide type that is formed between two molecules when carboxyl group react with one molecule of amino group to release molecule of water.The peptide bond are in form pseudo-double bond characteristic; rigid, planar, and stronger than a typical Carboxyl nitrogen single bond.
