1)Identify the inorganic nitrogen-containing compound formed by the
mixture of hydrochloric acid and sodium nitrite.
2) Draw the structure of the organic compound formed in the ice-cold
acidic mixture, showing a displayed formula of the nitrogen-containing
group.
3)Suggest the structure of the dye.
Amino acid
L.O.:
• State the general formula for an α-amino acid as
RCH(NH2)COOH.
• State that an amino acid exists as a zwitterion at a
pH value called the isoelectric point.
• State that different R– groups in α-amino acids may
result in different isoelectric points.
• Describe the acid–base properties of α-amino acids
at different pH values.
General formula of an α-amino acid
Structures of some amino acids
The R group
There are 20 different amino
acids
The only difference is the
atoms making up the R group
The simplest R group is found
in glycine where R = H
The largest R group is in
tryptophan
Where is the alpha carbon in this amino acid?

A zwitterion is a dipolar ionic form of an
amino acid that is formed by the
donation of a hydrogen ion from the
carboxyl group to the amino group.
The isoelectric point is the pH value at which
the amino acid exists as a zwitter ion.
