Chapter 24, Problem 4PS

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Out of the following, amino acid have polar R group and which have nonpolar R group has to be identified.

Concept introduction: Amino acids are the organic molecules that consist of both amine group $\left(-{\text{NH}}_{\text{2}}\right)$ as well as a carboxylic acid group $\left(-\text{COOH}\right)$ present at two different ends along with a side chain $\left(-\text{R}\right)$. The side group is different for different amino acids. The general formula for amino acid is ${\text{H}}_{\text{2}}\text{N}-\text{CH}\left(\text{R}\right)-\text{COOH}$.
