What else can I help you with?
What is each fat or oil made of?
It is made up of glycerol(alcohol) and fatty acid(carboxylic acid)
What are all the functional groups that contain a carboxly group?
Acyl bromide (a type of acid halide or acyl halide) Aldehyde Amide Anhydride Carboxylic Acid Enone Ester Ketone
Is aspirin an alkene alcohol a ketone or a carboxylic acid?
Do not be confused with alcohols nor ketones when seeing the -OH and the =O bonded. They each are really parts of either:- the carboxylic acid group (-COOH)- the ester link (from neighbour carbon along the ring)Likewise, double-bonds you see constitute the benzene (aromatic) ring:- a functional group in itself- they are not the normal alkene double bonds- would actually best be represented by a circle inside the ring,- not double lines for each of 3 double bonds, as resonance occurs in benzene rings.Therefore, aspirin (or acetylsalicylic acid) contains:- aromatic ring- carboxylic acid group- ester groupand can be regarded as an acid (i.e. acetylsalicylic acid)or the acetate ester of salicylic acid :-)so aspirin is (if choosing from your options):- not an alkene, nor a ketone, nor an alcohol.- we are left with a carboxylic acidBUT we usually only regard aspirin as an acetate ester, or a derivative of salicylic acid,so you wouldn't generally hear one calling aspirin a carboxylic acid :-)I hope I cleared things up a bit :-)Cheers.
Indicate the hybridization about each interior atom for an amino acid aspartic acid?
In aspartic acid, the carbon atoms in the carboxylic acid group and amino group are sp2 hybridized, while the central carbon is sp3 hybridized. The oxygen atom in the carboxylic acid group is also sp2 hybridized.
What characteristics of a molecule make it an amino acid?
Being both an amine and an acid, of course.Generally the term is used mainly for a specific type of amino acids... alpha-amino carboxylic acids. However, taurine is also called an amino acid, despite the fact that it's a sulfonic acid rather than a carboxylic acid.(alpha-amino means the amine group is attached to the first carbon after the carboxylic acid carbon itself. In taurine, the amine group is attached to the second carbon after the sulfonic acid group.)
What is each fat or oil made of?
It is made up of glycerol(alcohol) and fatty acid(carboxylic acid)
How are amides and carboxylic acids related to each other?
Amides are derived from carboxylic acids. When a carboxylic acid reacts with an amine, an amide is formed along with water as a byproduct. This reaction is known as amidation.

What are groups are found in each amino acid?
The amino group NH2 and the carboxylic group COOH are characteristic in all amino acids.
How can the amino acid codon wheel be used to determine the specific amino acid sequence in a given DNA sequence?
The amino acid codon wheel can be used to determine the specific amino acid sequence in a given DNA sequence by matching the DNA codons with their corresponding amino acids on the wheel. Each set of three DNA nucleotides (codon) codes for a specific amino acid, and by using the codon wheel, one can easily identify the amino acid sequence encoded by the DNA.
Is fat an element or a compound?
Fat is a fairly complicated compound: it is composed of a glycerin molecule with 3 fatty acid molecules attached. Each of the fatty acid molecules is composed of a carboxylic acid molecule and a hydrocarbon polymer molecule chain. The hydrocarbon polymer molecule chains can be of any length and either flexible or rigid. The hydrocarbon polymer molecule chains will likely be different in each of the 3 fatty acid molecules in a given fat molecule.

What types of bonds are the ones that attach amino acids to each other in a growing polypeptide?
They are amide bonds -covalent. When an amino acid reacts with another, the carboxylic acid reacts with the amine forming an amide.
For which specific amino acid does each codon code in the genetic code?
Each codon in the genetic code codes for a specific amino acid. For example, the codon "AUG" codes for the amino acid methionine.
Why the valency is two for oxalic acid?
Oxalic acid has a valency of two because it can donate or accept two hydrogen ions in a chemical reaction. Each carboxylic group in oxalic acid can release one hydrogen ion, giving it a valency of two.
