What else can I help you with?
Do fatty acid and glycerol both contain a carboxyl group?
No, only fatty acids contain carboxyl groups.
Is NH2 Group carboxyl hydroxyl amino methyl or carbonyl?
NH2 group is an amino group. It is a functional group that consists of a nitrogen atom bonded to two hydrogen atoms.
What functional groups act as an acid?
Functional groups like carboxylic acids and phenols can act as acids by donating a proton (H+) in a reaction. These functional groups contain an acidic hydrogen atom that can be released as a hydronium ion (H3O+).
What two elements are connected in a peptide bond of two amino acids?
The two elements connected in a peptide bond are carbon and nitrogen. The carboxyl group of one amino acid reacts with the amino group of another amino acid, forming a peptide bond and releasing a water molecule.
Amino acids are acids because they posses which functional group?
The contain a carboxyl (COOH) group at one end of the molecule. At physiological pH (approx. 7.4) they are ionised to COO-, proton donors are acidic. However they also contain a basic amino group (NH2) and the hydrogen lost from the carboxyl group is transferred to this nitrogen forming NH3+. These charges cancel each other out and give them an overall neutral charge at this pH.
Do fatty acid and glycerol both contain a carboxyl group?
No, only fatty acids contain carboxyl groups.
Are hydrocarbons in the carboxyl group?
This wording of this question sounds like you may be confused. In the term "carboxyl group", group refers to a specific group of atoms (COOH), not to a group of similar types of compounds. Since hydrocarbons by definition contain only carbon and hydrogen, a hydrocarbon cannot contain a carboxyl group.
Do amino acid molecules contain a carboxyl group and an amino group?
Yes
Is NH2 Group carboxyl hydroxyl amino methyl or carbonyl?
NH2 group is an amino group. It is a functional group that consists of a nitrogen atom bonded to two hydrogen atoms.
Do all amino acid molcules contain a carboxyl group and a amino group?
Yes.
What functional groups act as an acid?
Functional groups like carboxylic acids and phenols can act as acids by donating a proton (H+) in a reaction. These functional groups contain an acidic hydrogen atom that can be released as a hydronium ion (H3O+).
Does lipid contain carbon?
Both carbohydrates and lipids contain a carboxyl group. They differ in that carbohydrates are formed between a carboxyl and an aldehyde group whereas a lipid is formed between a carboxyl and a hydroxyl group. Amino acids also contain a carboxyl group, though it forms a peptide bond with an amino group.
Fatty acids and amino acids both contain?
Carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Fatty acids also contain a carboxyl group (COOH) and a hydrocarbon chain, while amino acids contain an amino group (NH2) and a side chain specific to each amino acid.
What two elements are connected in a peptide bond of two amino acids?
The two elements connected in a peptide bond are carbon and nitrogen. The carboxyl group of one amino acid reacts with the amino group of another amino acid, forming a peptide bond and releasing a water molecule.
What contains both a carboxyl group and an amino group?
An amino group and an R group
Amino acids are acids because they posses which functional group?
The contain a carboxyl (COOH) group at one end of the molecule. At physiological pH (approx. 7.4) they are ionised to COO-, proton donors are acidic. However they also contain a basic amino group (NH2) and the hydrogen lost from the carboxyl group is transferred to this nitrogen forming NH3+. These charges cancel each other out and give them an overall neutral charge at this pH.
What are the elements found in proteins butb not in carbohydrates and fats?
Nitrogen and sulphur, proteins are made of amino acids which contain an amine group NH, a carboxyl group COOH and an R group. The R group is a side chain, which is different in each of the 20 amino acids, which in methionine and cysteine contains a sulphur group. Carbohydrates contain carbon and hydrogen. Fats also contain carbon and hydrogen in the form of triglyceride and fatty acids.
