5. Show how an amino group and a carboxyl group can interact to form an H-bond.
There are three possibility to make H bond between carboxyl group and amino group.
1St possibility :
Amino group have H atoms attached to N atom which is a high electronegative atom.
On the other hand carboxyl group have O atom doubly bonded to carbon which interacts with H atom attached with the N atom hence forming H bond.
2nd possibility :
There is OH group in carboxyl group, this H of OH group can form H bond with the N atom of amino group.
3rd possibility:
The H atoms attached to N can also form H bond with the O of OH group of carboxyl group.
Hence, there are three possible H bonds. But if these all are present between these two groups then there is a large stearic hindrance. So, we cannot say which bonds will be present and also cannot show proper orientation of these H bonds by diagram .

In proteins, the peptide bond is formed between the carboxyl group of one AA and the amino group of a second. The four atoms in each peptide bond: terminate the protein are considered beta sheets insert kinks into alpha helices constitute nonpolar side chains form a rigid planar unit
The bond that forms between amino acids: a) connects water molecules and carboxyl groups of adjacent amino acids. b) connects amino groups and carboxyl groups of adjacent amino acids c) connects amino groups and R groups of adjacent amino acids d)can form between any chemical groups of adjacent amino acids e) connects hydrogen atoms of adjacent amino acids.
“Amino acids used in making a polypeptide have an amino group and carboxyl group, and these groups can be present on any carbon atoms.” Is that a correct statement? Why so? What is the basis for classification of amino acids to non-polar (but not aromatic), polar, and two oppositely charged (at physiological pH) amino acids? Provide examples with their exact name, three letter and single letter codes.
