Amino Acid Dipolar compound containing an amino group and a carboxyl group Amino Group -NH2 Carboxyl Group -COOH Alpha Carbon Central carbon atom in amino acid Attached to amino & carboxyl groups, H atom, and side chain Side Chain The variable component of an amino acid that gives the amino acid its identity and chemical properties also called R-group Chiral A molecule with a nonsuperimposable mirror image All amino acids (except glycine) are chiral (S) Absolute Configuration All amino...

isomers - Answer molecule that have the same molecule formula constitutional isomers - Answer same formula, different connectivity of atoms stereoisomers - Answer same formula, same connectivity, DIFFERENT spatial arrangement conformer - Answer rotation of a group around a sigma bond (also known as stereoisomers) enantiomers - Answer isomers that have the same connectivity molecules that are mirror images of each other, but are not super imposable diastereomers - Answ...

What are the steps in drawing Lewis structures? correct answer: 1. Draw skeleton, find central atom 2. Number of valence electrons 3. 2 electrons for each pair of bonded atoms 4. Total electrons - electrons put into structure = electrons left over 5. Electrons needed to fill octets 6. Electrons needed - electrons leftover = electrons in multiple bonds How to calculate formal charge? correct answer: Formal charge = valence electrons - non-bonding electrons How do you apply ...

Our left and right hands are not identical to each other, rather, they are... - correct answer mirror images. Handedness is important in organic and biological chemistry, where it arises primarily as a consequence of the tetrahedral stereochemistry of... - correct answer sp3-hybridized carbon atoms. (5.1 Enantiomers and the Tetrahedral Carbon) - correct answer Molecules that a...
