Q

if there are 2 carboxylic acid groups, name it..

A

dioic acid

37
Q

common name for carboxylic acid uses…(acid for god)

A

alpha and beta. The IUPAC is numbers, like 2, 3.

38
Q

naming esters

A

left part has the ate - benzoate, acetate, etc. right part is the branch - ethyl, etc.

39

small amides - liquid or solid at room temp? (hamide is small but solid)

A

solid, all other things are liquid, except alkanes are gas

40
Q

tertierary amide

A

has 3 bonds, so it’s just an N, no H. (also can’t do H bonding because it doesn’t have an H)

41
Q

amide naming ALSO uses…

A

N, N.

42
Q

pKa, the larger and more positive number…

A

the weaker the acid

43
Q

carboxylic acid + amine =

A

amide - byproduct is H2O

44
Q

warming carboxylic acid + alcohol =

A

esterification

45
Q

unsubstituted amide

A

NH2

46
Q

ester hydrolysis is called…

A

saponification - it’s the opposite of esterification

47
Q

amino acids have high or low melting points?

A

high melting points - similar to salt

48
Q

oligopeptides (olga is large)

A

Very large peptides

49
Q

amino acid naming ex.

A

Ala-Gly - always left to right

50
Q

classification of proteins (FG classifications for proteins)

A

fibrous proteins or globular proteins

51
Q

hydrophilic part of amino acid held together by what bonds? (water-free pocket in london)

A

london dispersion

52
Q

conjugated protein

A

protein that has a group other than amino acid, like hemoglobin has a heme group

53
Q

Denaturation is the

A

loss of secondary, tertiary, and quaternary protein structure

54
Q

sugar and base in DNA and RNA is connected by what? (sugar base need glycosin)

A

β-N-glycosidic bond

55
Q

nucleoside naming - RNA and DNA (just one difference)

A

DNA starts w/ deoxy - deoxyadenosine and RNA doesn’t - adenosine

56
Q

Chargaff’s rule (Char made it fair)

A

amount of A and T are always the same, and amount of G and C are always the same

57
Q

strands of DNA are anti-parallel - just means…

A

one goes 5 - 3, and the other 3 - 5

58
Q

DNA polymerases (Poly is a court reporter)

A

just an enzyme that helps w/ transcription

59
Q

template strand can only be read going which direction? (template is the fake one)

A

3 to 5

60
Q

which strand can grow continuosly?

A

only the leading strand

61
Q

which DNA strand is transcribed? (use the template)

A

the template strand

62
Q

exon (gene exits)

A

small section of DNA that holds code for gene

63
Q

codons always written in what direction (codons are OG)

A

5 - 3

complete combustion of propane (car overheats, pour water on it)

A

propane + oxygen = CO2, water and heat

C3H8 + 5 O2 → 3 CO2 + 4 H2O + Heat

Q

REMEMBER - acetone is…(3 nail polishes)

A

2-propanone - there are 3 carbons

66
Q

boiling points (branches in soup heats faster)

A

Boiling points increase as the number of carbons is increased. Branching decreases boiling point

67
Q

Boiling points - do more carbons increase or decrease it? (more carbons makes you higher)
