What functional group contributes negative charge?

anything with lone pairs, or things like alcohols and carboxyllic acids


A ketone bears a negative charge on what atom of the carbonyl group?

ketone bears negative charge on the oxygen atom of the carbonyl group.


Why is polar convalent bonds important?

the higher the polarity on a functional group, the more reactive it is. If a functional group is non-polar, it doesn't react with anything without a LOT of energy.For example: a hydrophobic functional group would avoid water at all cost, because it is non-polar, whereas water is polar. Try not to think of this as a "likes repel" sort of thing, but rather that a non-polar functional group is one that has no charge on it, and a polar group has a (+) or (-) charge. While it is true that two (+)'s will repel each other, if there is a (+) functional group, there is likely a (-) one on the other side, which would cause the molecule to flip around and bond that way.Essentially, polarity of a functional group functions as the + or - charge used to bond to the opposite charge of another molecule/functional group.


Organice compounds that have a negative Oxygen Hydrogen functional group?

Organic compounds with an oxygen hydrogen functional group are either alcohols or carboxylic acids


Are ketones basic?

I think ketones are slightly basic due to the resonance of the doule bond in the carbonyl functional group. This will leave a negative charge on the oxygen making it capable of acting as a weak Lewis base.


What is a group of atoms with with a positive or negative charge?

A polyatomic ion is a group of atoms with a charge.


Which charge is the DNA attracted to?

Since DNA has a phosphate group it has a negative charge and so it is attracted by a positive charge.


Which part of a dna nucleotide contains a negative charge?

The DNA nucleotide consists of three parts: a phosphate group, a 5-carbon sugar, and a nitrogenous base. The portion of the nucleotide that contains a negative charge is the phosphate group.


What is the CH3CH2CH2-NH2 functional group?

The functional group is the NH2. It is an amino functional group.


The Group 7A elements form ions with a charge of?

The charge of group 7A elements when forming ions is -1 (negative 1).


What particles in the periodic table have a negative 1 charge?

Group-17 elements have negative 1 charge. Examples are chlorine, bromine, iodine etc.


At Ph 10 what charge would Zwitterion ion have?

it would depend on amino acid in question. pH above amino acid pI, zwitterion will carry net negative (-) charge. at pH below pI, zwitterion will carry net positive (+) charge. depending on the amino acid, some have more than one acidic or basic functional group. such functional groups can make the amino acid vary in net charge from 2- to 2+ if not more.
