Chemistry: A Molecular Approach 3
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. The simplest amino acid is glycine (H2NCH2COOH). Draw a Lewis structure for glycine. (Hint: the central atoms in the skeletal structure are nitrogen bonded to carbon, which is bonded to another carbon. The two oxygen atoms are bonded directly to the ri

Evaporating sweat cools the body because evaporation is endothermic and absorbs 2.44 kJ per gram of water evaporated. Estimate the mass of water that must evaporate from the skin to cool a body by \(0.50\ ^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\), if the mass of the body is 95 kg and its heat capacity is \(4.0\mathrm{\ J

Figure E2.12 shows the velocity of a solar-powered car as a function of time. The driver accelerates from a stop sign, cruises for 20 s at a constant speed of and then brakes to come to a stop 40 s after leaving the stop sign. (a) Compute the average acceleration during the following time intervals:
