Question

What exactly is the difference between (E)/(Z) and cis/trans nomenclature?
In my class, we usually use (E)/(Z) for double bonds- is it possible to use it for single bonds?
Is (E)/(Z) used when cis/trans is not able to depict the geometric bonding as there are four different groups?

- Valine is an essential amino acid, which means that it cannot be manufactured in the body and must be obtained through dietary sources. It is a branched-chain amino acid that works with the other two BCAAs (isoleucine & leucine) to promote normal growth, repair tissues, regulate blood sugar, and provide the body with energy.Correct each of the three drawings below (i.e., add or remove lone pairs, charges, and atoms) to show valine at pH 1, pH 7, and pH 11. The pKa values for valine's ionizable groups are 2.29 for the –COOH group and 9.72 for the –NH3+ group. (same drawing on each part)arrow_forwardHow many constitutional isomers does C2H3Cl3 have?
