Chapter 18, Problem 18.25QP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The term zwitterion has to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

The general structure of α-amino acid contains an alpha carbon. The alpha carbon is made up of four different atoms or group present at its four bonds. This carbon is also called chiral carbon. In α-amino acid four different groups are a carboxylate group (COO), a protonated amino group (NH3+), hydrogen (H), and an alkyl chain or R group (R).
