The simplest amino acid is glycine, H2NCH2CO2H. The common feature of amino acids is that they contain the functional groups: an amine group, –NH2, and a carboxylic acid group, –CO2H. An amino acid can function aseither an acid or a base. For glycine, the acid strength of the carboxyl group is about the same as that of acetic acid, CH3CO2H, and the base strength of the amino group is slightly greater than that of ammonia, NH3.(a) Write the Lewis structures of the ions that form when glycine is dissolved in 1 M HCl and in 1 M KOH.(b) Write the Lewis structure of glycine when this amino acid is dissolved in water.
We have seen an introductory definition of an acid: An acid is a compound that reacts with water and increases the amount of hydronium ion present. In the chapter on acids and bases, we saw two more definitions of acids: acompound that donates a proton (a hydrogen ion, H+) to another compound is called a Brønsted-Lowry acid, and a Lewis acid is any species that can accept a pair of electrons. Explain why the introductory definition is amacroscopic definition, while the Brønsted-Lowry definition and the Lewis definition are microscopic definitions.
You are on one of Saturn's many moons and discover a substance, Y2O that undergoes autoionization just like water on Earth.
Y2O + Y2O ⇌ Y3O+ + OY–
Through a series of experiments, you determine the equilibrium constant (Keq) for this autoionization reaction at various temperatures. The value of Keq at 28.7ºC is 7.6 x 10-14. What is the pY of the pure substance at this temperature? Report your answer to the hundreths place
