5) The "zwitterion" form of the amino acid glycine is: H$_3$N$^+$CH$_2$CO$_2$$^-$. The properties of the various amino acids depend heavily on the presence (or absence) of charge on the side chain Consider the amino acid arginine, for example, which has the following Lewis structure: H H H H-N-H H$_3$N$^+$ -CH$_2$-CH$_2$-CH H 3 N H 2 H CO$_2$$^-$ Once again, there is a positive charge on the amine on the amino acid backbone, which we can ignore. What about the nitrogens labeled 1, 2 and 3 on the side chain? Use Formal Charge to determine if they are neutral, negatively charged, or positively charged? (a) N(1) = 0, N(2) = +1, and N(3) = 0 (b) N(1) = 0, N(2) = -1, and N(3) = 0 (c) N(1) = +1, N(2) = 0, and N(3) = +1 (d) N(1) = -1, N(2) = 0, and N(3) = -1 (e) N(1) = +1, N(2) = 0, and N(3) = -1 6) What is the distribution of electrons around the S atom in H$_2$SO$_4$? [Hint: The skeleton structure of this oxyacid is O$_2$S(OH)$_2$. (a) linear (b) trigonal planar (c) tetrahedral (d) trigonal bipyramidal (e) octahedral 7) What is the molecular geometry of the SF$_5$$^+$ ion?
