Chapter 24.1, Problem 2RC
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Under physiological condition, behavior of amino acid to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Proteins: Proteins are condensation polymers formed from amino acids. Proteins provide structural support, help organisms move, store and transport chemicals from one area to another. Proteins are polymers, in which the amino acids called monomers bonded each other by eliminating water molecule, and the formation of amide linkage which known as condensation process. The bonding between two amino acids otherwise known as peptide bonds; all together the proteins are condensation polymers of amino acids or amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.

In a theoretical study of protein-like polymers, the phase diagram shown was obtained. It shows three structural regions: the native form, the unfolded form, and a 'molten globule' form. (a) Is the molten-globule form ever stable when the denaturant concentration is below 0. 1? (b) Describe what happens to the polymer as the native form is heated in the presence of denaturant at concentration 0. 15.
Identify the Lewis acid and Lewis base that lead to the - -2formation of the following species: (a) AlCl4 , (b) Cd(CN)4 , (c) HCO3- and (d) H2SO4.
Phenylamine is an aromatic amine that is used in the manufacture of dyes. When absorbed through the skin itcauses the Fe+2 in hemoglobin to become oxidized into Fe+3, resulting in the formation of methemoglobin whichcannot bind to or transport oxygen. Phenylamine is soluble in water and acts as a weak base.C6H5NH2 (aq) + H2O (ℓ) ⇋ C6H5NH3+ (aq) + OH- (aq)a. When you measure the concentrations of the ionized substances you find them to be:[C6H5NH2] = 0.234 mol/L [C6H5NH3+] = 2.8 x 10-5 mol/L [OH-]= 2.8 x 10-5 mol/LIf the Kb is 4.27 x 10-10, is the reaction at equilibrium? If not, which direction does it need to move (rightor left) to reach equilibrium? Explain. b. At equilibrium the concentrations of the ionized substances are:[C6H5NH2] = 0.0537 mol/L [C6H5NH3+] = 4.79 x 10-6 mol/L [OH-]= 4.79 x 10-6 mol/LIf this reaction is taking place in a 2.0L container, and 1.5 moles of phenylamine were added to thereaction, what will the new concentrations of the three ionic species be when…
