The characteristic of the compound you are referring is essential to where on the functional groups it belong. Furthermore, the basic functional groups among the hydrocarbons are: alkane, alkene, alkyne, benzene, and others that basically has a hydrogen atom and a carbon atom.
We have to get the formula of methionine.
The formula of methionine is
Methionine is an essential amino acid of human. It is white crystalline solid.
The formula of methionine is C₅H₁₁NO₂S. Methionine contains five carbon atoms, eleven hydrogen atoms, one nitrogen atom, two oxygen atoms and one sulphur atom.
It contains one amino group (-NH₂) and one carboxylic acid group (-COOH). Atoms are depicted in C-atom in grey, H-atom in ivory, O-atom in red, N-atom in blue and S-atom in yellow.
Answer:
Ha is more acidic than Hb because loss of Ha forms a resonance-stabilized conjugate base.
Explanation:
The carbon atom that is next to the carbonyl group in pentan-2-one is known as the alpha carbon atom, this carbon atom bears the Ha, the alpha hydrogen atoms.
Ha is more acidic than Hb because, loss of Ha leads to the formation of a resonance stabilized enolate ion. This resonance stabilization of the ion formed makes loss of Ha an easier process than loss of Hb, hence the answer above.
