rigid because of the resonance stabilization of the amide (peptide) bond and the C=O (C double bond O) cause the structure to be planar and is therefore incapable of rotation.

Is a peptide bond a covalent bond?
Yes, a peptide bond is a covalent bond.
What is the length of peptide bond?
there is no specific length for the peptide bond, but there are million amino acids that build up a peptide bond
The attachment of a carboxylic acid group of one amino acid to the amino acid group of another forms a connection called?
An amide bond forming a chain of peptides. Peptide bond is only a special amide bond name for this particular bonding.
Molecule is consumed when breaking a peptide bond?
If the peptide bond is hydrolyzed, then an H20 molecule is consumed.
What is the difference between a glycosidic bond and a peptide bond?
Peptide bond is the bond formed between amino acids. Glycosidic bond is the bond formed between simple sugars Peptide bond is the bond formed between amino acids. Glycosidic bond is the bond formed between simple sugars
The peptide bond is planar due to?
due to delocalization of the lone pair of electrons of the nitrogen onto carbonyl oxygen
What is The bond that links two amino acids called?
This is called a peptide bond, or peptide linkage.
Is a peptide bond a covalent bond?
Yes, a peptide bond is a covalent bond.
What is the length of peptide bond?
there is no specific length for the peptide bond, but there are million amino acids that build up a peptide bond
Why do peptide bonds act as a double bond?
They don't, exactly. However, both the nitrogen and the carbon participating in the bond are in the sp2 hybridization state, and this allows for a resonance structure making the group planar and restricting rotation about the carbon-nitrogen bond.
What is the bond called between the first and second amino acids in a peptide bond?
a peptide bond
The attachment of a carboxylic acid group of one amino acid to the amino acid group of another forms a connection called?
An amide bond forming a chain of peptides. Peptide bond is only a special amide bond name for this particular bonding.
What is the name of the chemical bond between amino acids?
the bond connecting two aminoacid is peptide bond
Molecule is consumed when breaking a peptide bond?
If the peptide bond is hydrolyzed, then an H20 molecule is consumed.
Which type of bond is formed between two amino acids in a peptide chain?
A peptide bond
Does glycine contain peptide bond?
No, glycine is the simplest amino acid and does not have any peptide bond.
Which macromolecules has peptide bonds?
proteins; they form a covalent bond with amino acids creating a peptide bond
