Chapter 23, Problem 50QAP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The hydrolysis energy for formation of an amide bond when 1 mole of amino acid is added to the chain needs to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Amino acids combine to form protein, this results in the formation of a peptide bond between the protein chain and the coming amino acid. Bond is formed between the carbon and nitrogen atom; this is known as amide linkage.

Bond energy is the energy required for the formation or breaking the bond present between the atom of a molecule.

Hydrolysis for formation of an amide linkage can be determined as follows:

dH = BE (reactant) - BE (product)
