The “octet rule” in chemistry helps predict the types of bonds thatatoms will form. In general, an atom will be most stable if it fills itsouter shell of 8 electrons. Atoms with fewer than 4 valence electronstend to donate electrons and those with more than 4 valence electronstend to accept additional electrons; those with exactly 4 can do both.Using this rule, determine what category each of the followingelements falls into: N, S, C, P, O, H, Ca, Fe, and Mg. (You will needto work out the valence of the atoms.)
:0-H-1--:N-H
Hydrogen Bond
Which statement best helps explain the formation of the hydrogen bond represented in the figure?
A
The oxygen has a partial positive charge, and the nitrogen has a partial negative charge.
(B)
The nitrogen has a partial negative charge, and the hydrogen attached to the oxygen has a partial positive charge.
Draw the structures of L-Cysteine from highly protonated to depronated form. Note Structure A as the most protonated form. Provide the charge of each structure.

Draw a diagram of an ammonia molecule. Show all valence electrons, lone pairs, molecular geometry, and partial charges (assume sp³ hybridization).arrow_forwardUnshared, or lone, electron pairs play an important role in determining the chemical and physical properties of organic compounds. Thus, it is important to know which atoms carry unshared pairs. Use the structural formulas below to determine the number of unshared pairs at each designated atom. Be sure your answers are consistent with the formal charges on the formulas.

- Which of these statements about the tertiary structure of a polypeptide is(are) untrue? You may select more than one answer. The tertiary structure will be maintained when the solvent is changed from pure water to aqueous acetic acid. O The tertiary structure is determined in part by the formation of disulfide bridges. Hydrogen bonding interactions are responsible for formation of secondary structure but not tertiary structure, O The tertiary structure is rigid and unchanging. O Charge-charge (electrostatic) interactions can be important in the tertiary structure.arrow_forwardDiscuss whether the following statement is correct: “An ionic bond can, in principle, be thought of as a very polar covalent bond. Polar covalent bonds, then, fall somewhere between ionic bonds at one end of the spectrum and nonpolar covalent bonds at the other end.”arrow_forwardWhat would be the simplest way to tell the difference in non polar covalent bonds, polar covalent bonds, and an ionic bond? Would I be able to tell if the charge is negative or positive? If so- how?arrow_forward
