What are the structural effects of organic compounds?
There are six structural effects that affect the stability, acidity/basicity, melting point,volatility and solubility of an organic compound. These are VAN DER VAALS, RESONANCE, H-BONDING, CH-HYPERCONJUGATION, STERIC EFFECT, and INDUCTIVE EFFECT. VAN DER WAALS is the attractive or repulsive forces between molecules (or between parts of the same molecule) other than those due to covalent bonds or to the electrostatic interaction of ions with one another or with neutral molecules. (source, wikipedia) RESONANCE is the delocalization of the PI bonds. This adds to the stability of the compound. H-BONDING or hydrogen bonding is the bonding of Hydrogen atoms to an electronegative atoms (i.e. O) H-bonding can be intramolecular or intermolecular. When a compound is capable of H-bonding, the forces of attraction involved is stronger. CH-hyperconjugation is also known as sigma-electron delocalization. The sigma electron delocalization takes place towards the sp2 hybridized atoms. STERIC EFFECT is the effect of BULKINESS in a molecule. INDUCTIVE EFFECT is when the electron cloud is DISTORTED: Towards the electronegative part of the molecule (electron-withdrawing) away from the electron repelling groups (electron-repelling) Anonymous
PH effect on enzymes?
A change in pH can alter the ionization of the R groups of the amino acids. When the charges on the amino acids change, hydrogen bonding within the protein molecule changes and the molecule changes shape. The new shape therefore may not be effective

What is the significance of mutations to living things?
Many, if not most, mutations are neutral, meaning that they have little or no effect on the expression of genes or the function of the proteins for which they code.
What is the effect of hydrogen bonding on vibrational frequencies in case of IR spectroscopy?
Hydrogen bonding results in the broadening of the stretching frequencies of functional groups like -OH, -NH, -COOH etc.
What are types of chemical bond?
Basically there are two types of chemical bonding- Ionic bonding and covalent bonding, their sub classes include coordinate covalent bonding , metallic bonding and secondary type of bonding includes Hydrogen bonding , Vander waal's bonding, Dipole-Dipole interaction and London's dispersion effect.

Why does ethanol have higher boiling point than butane although the latter has higher relative molecular mass?
Ethanol has a higher boiling point because of chemical bonding. Ethanol is an alcohol. Specifically hydrogen bonding. Ethanol is an alcohol, Butane does not have anything except Carbon and Hydrogen. I found this on google:Hydrogen bonding in alcohols An alcohol is an organic molecule containing an -O-H group. Any molecule which has a hydrogen atom attached directly to an oxygen or a nitrogen is capable of hydrogen bonding. Such molecules will always have higher boiling points than similarly sized molecules which don't have an -O-H or an -N-H group. The hydrogen bonding makes the molecules "stickier", and more heat is necessary to separate them. Ethanol, CH3CH2-O-H, and methoxymethane, CH3-O-CH3, both have the same molecular formula, C2H6O.---- Note: If you haven't done any organic chemistry yet, don't worry about the names.----They have the same number of electrons, and a similar length to the molecule. The van der Waals attractions (both dispersion forces and dipole-dipole attractions) in each will be much the same. However, ethanol has a hydrogen atom attached directly to an oxygen - and that oxygen still has exactly the same two lone pairs as in a water molecule. Hydrogen bonding can occur between ethanol molecules, although not as effectively as in water. The hydrogen bonding is limited by the fact that there is only one hydrogen in each ethanol molecule with sufficient + charge. In methoxymethane, the lone pairs on the oxygen are still there, but the hydrogens aren't sufficiently + for hydrogen bonds to form. Except in some rather unusual cases, the hydrogen atom has to be attached directly to the very electronegative element for hydrogen bonding to occur. The boiling points of ethanol and methoxymethane show the dramatic effect that the hydrogen bonding has on the stickiness of the ethanol molecules: ethanol (with hydrogen bonding) 78.5°C methoxymethane (without hydrogen bonding) -24.8°C The hydrogen bonding in the ethanol has lifted its boiling point about 100°C.
How does the bonding effect the macroscopic properties of the molecule?
it combines two or more molecules when bonding
