All amino acids have two ionizable functional groups: an a-amino group (average pK, of 9.4) and an a-carboxylic acid group
(average pK, of 2.2). Glutamic acid has an ionizable side chain (R group) with a pK, of about 4.1. One of the possible
ionization states of glutamic acid is shown in the image.
H₂N-CH-C-OH
CH₂
At what pH would this structure of glutamic acid be the predominant ionization state? Consider the ionization state of all
three of the functional groups.
OH
The protonated form of the R group of glutamic acid is shown in the structure. The ratio of the protonated form to the charged
(deprotonated) form depends on the pK, of the R group and the pH of the solution.

The name carbohydrate comes from the fact that many simple sugars have chemical formulae that look like water has simply been
added to carbon. (The suffix hydrate from the Greek word hydor ("water") means "compound formed by the addition of water.")
The actual chemical structure of carbohydrates doesn't look anything like water molecules bonded to carbon atoms (see sketch at
right). But it is nevertheless possible to chemically extract all the hydrogen and oxygen from many simple carbohydrates as water,
leaving only carbon behind. If you search the Internet for "reaction of sulfuric acid and sugar" you will find some impressive videos of
this.
Suppose you had (200. g) of ordinary table sugar, which chemists call sucrose, and which has the chemical formula C12H₂2011.
Calculate the maximum mass of water you could theoretically extract. Be sure your answer has alunit symbol, and round it to 3
significant digits.
