The structure of Monosodium glutamate is to be drawn. Concept introduction: Amino acids are defined as organic compounds which contain amine ( -NH 2 ) and carboxyl ( -COOH ) functional groups , along with a side chain (R group) attached to each amino acid. Monosodium glutamate is a sodium salt of glutamic acid which is a non essential amino acid. The salts of amino acids are formed when amino acids react with each other in a typical acid-base neutralization reaction. The reaction occurs through the transfer of the positive hydrogen ion from the amino acid to the amine forming zwitterions; further, attraction between negative and positive charges takes place to form a salt.

Solution Summary: The author explains the structure of Monosodium glutamate.
Definition Definition Group of atoms that shape the chemical characteristics of a molecule. The behavior of a functional group is uniform in undergoing comparable chemical reactions, regardless of the other constituents of the molecule. Functional groups aid in the classification and anticipation of reactivity of organic molecules.

Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The structure of Monosodium glutamate is to be drawn.
Concept introduction: Amino acids are defined as organic compounds which contain amine(-NH2) and carboxyl
(-COOH)functional groups, along with a side chain (R group) attached to each amino acid. Monosodium glutamate is a sodium salt of glutamic acid which is a non essential amino acid. The salts of amino acids are formed when amino acids react with each other in a typical acid-base neutralization reaction. The reaction occurs through the transfer of the positive hydrogen ion from the amino acid to the amine forming zwitterions; further, attraction between negative and positive charges takes place to form a salt.

If so, draw a synthesis below. If no synthesis using reagents ALEKS recognizes is possible, check the box under the drawing area.
Be sure you follow the standard ALEKS rules for submitting syntheses.
