An amide is typically drawn with a single bond connecting the carbonyl C atom to the N atom. If this representation were accurate, we would expect the N atom to be pyramidal, and we would also expect C-N to undergo free rotation. In actuality, however, the N atom is rather planar, and the rotation is quite hindered-properties that give rise to important secondary structures of proteins, such as a helices and B sheets (Chapter 26). Explain these properties of the amide. R `NH2 An amide

Researchers discover a new amino acid. Its R-group exclusively has hydrogen and carbon atoms. What behavior will this amino acid show? O Relative to the amino acids found in organisms, its interactions with water will be very high. It is hydrophilic. Relative to the amino acids found in organisms, its interactions with water will be intermediate. It is hydrophobic.
