Explain why a peptide bond has partial double and partial single bond character. Give the structure of the two contributing forms.
Explain why a peptide bond has partial double and partial single bond character. Give the structure...
Part 1 (1 point) See Hint Due to its partial double bond character, the peptide bond restricts rotation, constraining atoms to lie within the same peptide plane. Rotation in the peptide backbone is around the two bonds that flank adjacent Ca atoms, between which a peptide plane is formed. Part 2 (1 point) See Hint What is the molecular geometry of the constituents of the peptide plane? Choose one: A. The amide nitrogen is tetrahedral and the carbonyl carbon is...
Which of the following is true about the peptide bond. Choose all true statements. The peptide bond is polar, the N has a partial negative charge and the C has a partial positive charge. The peptide bond is uncharged. The plane of the peptide bond contains the following atoms: the alpha-carbon atom and CO groups of the first amino acid, the NH group and alpha-carbon of the second amino acid. The peptide bond has no double bond character.
4) In a polypeptide, which bond cannot rotate because of its partial double bond character? The Cα-R group bond The Namide-Cα bond The Ccarbonyl-Cα bond The Ccarbonyl-Namide bond All bonds are able to rotate freely 5) Which of the following best represents the backbone arrangement of two peptide bonds? A) C—N—Cα—Cα—C—N B) Cα—N—C—C—N—Cα C) Cα—N—Cα—C—Cα—N—Cα—C D) Cα—Cα—C—N—Cα—Cα—C E) Cα—C—N—Cα—C—N 6. Describe the predominant character of the following polypeptides using the following options Nonpolar Polar Uncharged Polar Positively charged Polar Negatively...
Why are double bonds and peptide bonds more rigid than single bonds?
Why is the peptide bond is considered rigid and planar? Please explain.
1. Why are double bonds and triple bonds shorter than single bonds? 2. VSEPR geometry predicts that the bond angles in formaldehyde (CH20), a trigonal planar molecule, will be 120° throughout all three angles. However, analysis showed that the H-C-H bond angle is slightly smaller at 116.5°, while the two H-C-O angles are slightly larger at 121.8°. Explain this difference in the predicted bond angle vs actual bond angle. 3. VSEPR geometry also predicts that the bond angles in tetrahedral molecules is...
If a single bond is a sigma bond, and a double bond is a pi bond, why is it easier to break a single bond than a double bond while a pi bond is weaker than a sigma bond?
In the following structure,
consider the amide group- highlighted green- which contains a
peptide bond:
In the structure below, convert the peptide bond-containing
amide group into an analog that could be a likely transitionstate
analog. Include hydrogen atoms on non-carbon atoms.
Hint: Modify the given structure to generate your response.
Correct answers conatin a single-chain "peptide", do not divide the
structure into fragments. Consider an analog with a reduced group
or a carbon atom replacing the nitrogen atom. Do not...
Draw the condensed structural formula for the peptide methionylaspartic acid. Give its three letter and single letter abbreviation. Highlight (draw it real dark) the peptide bond in it.

Which statement best describes the bonding character of this ion?** 30: (a) One double bond and two single bonds (b) One double bond and two delocalized single bonds (c) Three equivalent 1, bonds (d) One single bond and two equivalent 11 bonds (e) 007 James Bonds
