Assignment:
Glycine is the simplest of the amino acids. Amino acids are important biological compounds because they are the building blocks of proteins. The structure of glycine is shown below.
1. Indicate the hybridization of each of the carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms. (Note that some printed structures do not show lone pairs. You should begin by placing lone pairs on the structure where appropriate.)
2. Draw the orbitals that overlap to form each bond and also draw the orbitals that house lone pairs. Designate each bond as a σ bond or a π bond.
3. Indicate the approximate bond angles.
Provide complete and step by step solution for the question and show calculations and use formulas.
