Question
Answer
What is an Amino acid   compound that contains an amino group and carboxylic group  
🗑
protein/polypeptide   polymer of amino acids  
🗑
Amino acids to protien / polypeptide   condensation, peptide bond  
🗑
Exergonic   G negative, spontaneous  
🗑
Endergonic   G positive, nonspontaneous  
🗑
How can non - spontaneous rxn still occur   Cells couple nonfavorable metabolic processes to favorable ones so that the net change in free energy is negative  
🗑
Why is water molecule polar   uneven distribution of charge, O neg, H positive  
🗑
How many hydrogen bonds can water form   Can form 4, since it has 2 hydrogen atoms to donate to H-bond, and 2 pairs of electrons to accept  
🗑
Relative strengths of bonds in biomolecules   covalent>ionic>hydrogen>vanderwalls  
🗑
Vander walls interaction between 2 polar molecules   dipole -- dipole interaction  
🗑
Vander walls interaction b/ween 2 nonpolar molecules   london dispersion forces  
🗑
hydrophobic   water fearing, compound that lacks polar groups and is insoluble  
🗑
What happens to entropy when hydrophobic molecule is dissolved   Entropy decrease, because water molecule not free to form H bonding  
🗑
How can hydrphobic molecules increase entropy   aggregate  
🗑
Hydrophobic effect   Water molecules repelled from nonpolar molecule form shell  
🗑
amphipathic   molecule w/ both polar and non-polar regions  
🗑
What happens when amphipathic molecules are added to water   polar molecules orient themselve toward water, and nonpolar aggregates due to hydrophobic effect  
🗑
What are the concentration of H and OH in pure water   1 x 10 ^ -7 M  
🗑
What is the relationsip b/ween Ka and pKa   larger Ka, or lower pKa = stronger acids  
🗑
Buffer   system of weak acids and its conjugate base, resist changes in pH  
🗑
What happens at midpoint of titration   pH = pKa and [acid] = [conj.base]  
🗑
how do you make a good buffer   pH needs to be w/in 1pH unit of pKa  
🗑
physiological pH of human body   6.9 - 7.4  
🗑
Enzyme for H2CO3 buffer   carbonic anhydrase  
🗑
Why are ATP bonds called high energy bonds   cleavage of the bond has a large negative free energy  
🗑
Why cleavage of ATP bonds release eneryg   ATP hydrolisis products are more stable  
🗑
the joining of Ala - Tyr is a   amide bond  
🗑
under normal physiological conditions the N term of plypeptide chain looks like what   NH3+  
🗑
whe pH > pKa what form is dominate   conj base, NH2 COO-  
🗑
When pH < pKa what form is dominate   Acid, NH3+, COOH  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
