Properties of carbonyl
-structural isomer
Properties of phosphate
Charged, ionizes to release H*
Since phosphate groups can
release H+ ions into solution,
they are considered acidic.
Properties of sulfuhudryl
Polar
Properties of amino
Charged, accepts H* to form NH3
Since amino groups can remove
H* from solution, they are
considered basic.
Properties of carboxyl
Charged, ionizes to release Ht
Since carboxyl groups can release
H* ions into solution, they are
considered acidic.
