Because -COOH is already a protonated form of carboxyl. It can only be deprotonated now to -COO- (Negatively charged). The -COO can not accept two protons. Just as the -NH3+ can not accept a 4th proton. This is determined by the atoms' valence and number of electrons

I’m sorry for the confusion and for the late reply. When neutral and in its de-protonated form, the free amino group of glycine should appear as -NH2. At no point does it actually exist with a single proton. I simply had it appearing that way at the beginning of the problem before I determined if the group was in its protonated (-NH3+) or deprotonated (-NH2) form.

Shouldn't the amine on GLY be de-porotonated at pH 13 because pH>pKa? To go from neutral NH2 to NH??
@Leah4sciMCAT
@Leah4sciMCAT 9 ай бұрын
Yes, the amine will be de-protonated at pH 13. It goes from NH3+ to a neutral NH2. The amine group will never be written as NH (and if it was, it would be negative in charge).

So you said that the neutral form cannot exist, but that the zwitterion is the neutral form and then you claimed that it is the most common form, please elaborate I'm confused
@Leah4sciMCAT
@Leah4sciMCAT 3 жыл бұрын
I apologize for the confusion. The amine and carboxyl groups cannot both appear in their neutral form at the same time. In nature, we most commonly find amino acids as a zwitterion where the amine holds a positive charge and the carboxyl hold a negative charge. Overall, these two charges cancel out, creating a net neutral charge for the molecule. The idea is that neither group is neutral by itself, but together they form a net neutral molecule.

I’m sorry for the confusion and for the late reply. At no point does glycine actually exist with a single proton on the nitrogen or with an uncharged, de-protonated oxygen on the carboxy group. I simply had it appearing that way before I determined if either group was in its protonated or deprotonated form. There really is no “starting molecule” of glycine. It will exist at different charge states, depending on the pH of the surrounding solution. We always have to consider the pH before determining how glycine will appear.

I'm confused. Ka is a constant for any given acid, right? So how can it be proportional to the hydrogen concentration? Constants aren't proportional to things! Ahh!
@Leah4sciMCAT
@Leah4sciMCAT 4 жыл бұрын
Sorry you're so confused; let's get things cleared up for you. Yes, Ka is a constant for any given acid. Maybe it would be better to say that Ka is proportional to the ratio of [H+]/[HA]. It stands to reason that acids which produce a higher quantity of H+ per unit of acid would have greater Ka values (and thus be more acidic). So even though the Ka doesn’t change for a given acid, it is variable between different acids based on how much H+ that particular acid produces.
@sumayauthmaan4838

Just to clarify, does the pH look at the solution, while the pKa looks at the molecule?
@Leah4sciMCAT
@Leah4sciMCAT 4 жыл бұрын
I think you’ve got the distinction! The pH looks at the concentration of hydrogen ions in solution, while the pKa is a constant for any given molecule. The pKa gives us information about the acidity of a certain proton on the molecule and whether that proton will dissociate or not at the specified pH.

Thanks for asking! A pH of 1 is less than the pKa of the free carboxylic acid group (~2.3) on an amino acid. Because of this, the group will appear in its protonated form as -COOH and is neutral in charge.

Why do you have the Amine Group as "H2N" at the beginning of the video, but as "HN" at the end of the video?

She drew H(space)N so that she eventually fills in all the numbers as she showed the specific pH values. Depending on the pH, the amino group is protonated or deprotonated, and she shows that with her drawings.

Excellent job Leah, thanks a lot! Just one question, regarding the quiz on your website: In part 3, we are asked to find the charge of Cys at PH = 4. Pka values for Cys are as follows: (Pka(COOH):1,71, Pka (NH2): 10,78, Pka(R): 8,33 ). The solution suggests change 0 for the side chain. Could you please explain this to me? I would expect to see +1 for the side chain and not zero, as PH is much less than the Pka for side chain, which means that the side chain should get protonated (conveting to S2H+ from SH). Am I missing something? All help would be appreciated.

You're very welcome! Since I don't offer tutoring over social media, I would first suggest you use the download link at the bottom of the practice quiz to access the PDF quiz solutions. If you would like a more detailed explanation, I recommend joining the MCAT Study Hall. For more details visit join.mcatstudyhall.com/ or contact me through my website leah4sci.com/contact/

It's not log, it's lg.

In the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation, we use a logarithm with a base of 10 which is abbreviated “log”.

I don’t know but why you are so concerned about acetic acid !!! Where is the amino acid in this whole lecture!!!!

An amino acid is an organic compound that contains both amine and carboxylic acid functional groups. In this video, I first look at acetic acid and methylammonium, as examples of how those same functional groups would behave on their own at various pH values. Then, to apply that knowledge, I turn to the example of the amino acid glycine at 12:37 to explain how these functional groups would function together within the same molecule at various pH values.
