Is proline aromatic?

Proline is not aromatic. While the ring does have 2+4n free electrons (from the nitrogen), the fact that the carbon adjacent to the nitrogen has three sigma bonds means that there is not an open pi orbital for electrons to resonate in.


Why phenol is stronger acid than ethanol?

Phenol is a stronger acid than ethanol because the phenoxide ion formed after losing a proton is stabilized by resonance, making it more stable. In contrast, ethanol forms a less stable ethoxide ion due to the lack of resonance stabilization. This difference in stability influences the ease with which the acids donate a proton.


What are the 4 major classes of organic compounds?

The four major classes of organic compounds are carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. Carbohydrates serve as a source of energy, proteins are essential for structure and function in the body, lipids play roles in energy storage and cell membrane structure, and nucleic acids are involved in genetic information storage and transfer.


All amino acid having an aromatic ring give a positive xanthoproteic test under identical condition?

No, not all amino acids with an aromatic ring give a positive xanthoproteic test. The xanthoproteic test is mainly positive for amino acids containing aromatic rings with phenolic groups such as tyrosine and phenylalanine. Aromatic amino acids like tryptophan do not give a positive xanthoproteic test under identical conditions.


What is the difference between a weak and strong acid involves the acids ability to do what?

The difference between a weak and strong acid lies in their ability to ionize/dissociate in water. Strong acids fully ionize in water, releasing a high concentration of H+ ions, while weak acids only partially ionize, releasing a lower concentration of H+ ions. This difference is reflected in their pH values and reactivity.

Which is stronger acid aromatic or aliphatic?

Aromatic acids are generally stronger than aliphatic acids due to the resonance stabilization provided by the delocalization of electrons in the aromatic ring. This makes the aromatic acids more stable when releasing a proton, resulting in a stronger acid.


Can tryosine is a aliphatic amino acid?

No, tyrosine is not an aliphatic amino acid. It is actually classified as an aromatic amino acid due to its aromatic ring structure. Aliphatic amino acids do not contain aromatic rings in their side chains.

Is hydrochloric acid a fatty acid?

No, hydrochloric acid is not a fatty acid.It is a mineral acid. A fatty acid is that acid which has carboxyllic group attached to a long aliphatic chain. The aliphatic chain may or may not be saturated.
