Chapter 15, Problem 82E

The simplest amino acid is glycine, H2NCH2CO2H. The common feature of amino acids is that they contain the functional groups: an amine group, -NH2, and a carboxylic acid group, -CO2H. An amino acid can function as either an acid or a base. For glycine, the acid strength of the carboxyl group is about the same as that of acetic acid. CH3CO2H, and the base strength of the amino group is slightly greater than that of ammonia, NH3.

(a) Write the Lewis structures of the ions that form when glycine is dissolved in 1 M HCl and in 1 M KOH.

(b) Write the Lewis structure of glycine when this amino acid is dissolved in water. (Hint: Consider the relative base strengths of the -NH2 and -CO2- groups.)

Three acids found in foods are lactic acid, LA, (in milk products), oxalic acid, OA, (in rhubarb), and malic acid, MA (in apples). The pKa values are LA =3.88, OA =1.23, and MA =3.40. Which list has the conjugate bases of these acids, lactate, oxalate, and malate, in order of decreasing strength? O lactate > malate > oxalate lactate > oxalate > malate malate > lactate > oxalate oxalate > malate > lactate
An acid-base equilibrium system is created by dissolving 0.50 mol CH3CO2H in water to a volume of 1.0 L. What is the effect of adding 0.50 mol CH3CO2–(aq) to this solution? 1.The pH of the solution will equal 7.00 because equal concentrations of a weak acid and its conjugate base are present. 2.Some CH3CO2H(aq) will ionize, increasing the concentration of CH3CO2–(aq) and increasing the pH.3.Some CH3CO2–(aq) will react with H3O+, increasing the concentration of CH3CO2H(aq) and reestablishing the solution equilibrium. b. 2 only c. 3 only d. 1 and 3 e. 1, 2, and 3
