Complete the equation to show how pyridine, C5H5NC5⁢H5N, acts as a Brønsted-Lowry base in water. equation: C5H5N+H2O↽−−⇀
Compounds like amphetamine that contain nitrogen atoms are protonated by the HCl in the gastric juices of the stomach, and the resulting salt is then deprotonated in the basic environment of the intestines to regenerate the neutral form. Write proton transfer reactions for both of these processes.
I'm asked to "assume that ozempic is in a solution at pH = 7. Draw the functional groups at their correct protonation form". For this, would I make all of the carboxyl groupsgo from COOH to COO-? and then the amide groups go from CONH to CONH3 + ? What about ether groups (COC) ?
