the carboxylic group normally came from carboxylic acid. Hence, the carboxylic acid is polar acid. and the polarity came from the carboxylic group for that it is hydrophilic group

Does carboxyl group do covalent bonds with another carboxyl group?
No. But hydrogen bond can be formed between two carboxyl groups.
What functional groups act as an acid?
two examples are carboxyl and hydroxyl examples are vinegar for carboxyl and phenol for hydroxyl there are many others
What are the 4 parts of amino acids?
amino group, carboxyl group, a hydrogen atom, and variable group (R)grouped according to side chains1 group can be hydrophobic1 group can have sides that are hydrophilicwith a carboxyl group, could have a negative chargebut would normally have a positive chargenotice that all amino acids have carboxyl groups and amino groupsacidic and basic only refer to groups on side chainsbecause they are charged, acidic and basic side chains are also hydrophilic
Do fatty acid and glycerol both contain a carboxyl group?
No, only fatty acids contain carboxyl groups.
What are the three functional groups that are readily ionized by adjusting the pH of aqueous solutions?
carboxyl, amino, phosphate
Does carboxyl group do covalent bonds with another carboxyl group?
No. But hydrogen bond can be formed between two carboxyl groups.
Do carbohydrates have carboxyl groups?
Yes
What groups are identical in amino acids?
amino and carboxyl groups
Are carbohydrates hydrophilic or hydrophobic and how do you test this?
hydrophilic b/c carbohydrates are made of sugars; sugars (such as glucose) have LOTS of hydroxyl groups which are hydrophilic, therefore carbohydrates are hydrophilic

two examples are carboxyl and hydroxyl examples are vinegar for carboxyl and phenol for hydroxyl there are many others

Do fatty acid and glycerol both contain a carboxyl group?
No, only fatty acids contain carboxyl groups.
What contains amino and carboxyl groups?
protein structures Any molecule containing a carboxyl and an amino group is called an amino acid.
What are the three functional groups that are readily ionized by adjusting the pH of aqueous solutions?
carboxyl, amino, phosphate
What is acidic polysaccharides?
Acidic polysaccharidesAcidic polysaccharides are polysaccharides that contain carboxyl groups, phosphate groups and/or sulfuric ester groups.
Amino acids always have two groups attached what are they?
A carboxyl and an amino
In DNA what do phosphate groups bond to?
I,5-bis phosphate carboxyl
