Build another hexane molecule and place it alongside the first one you built.
Convert one of the terminal methylene groups (—CH3) on each molecule into a carboxyl group: (hexanoic acid (L, B)
What type of biomolecule have you created? Label the carboxylic terminal group
Orient (B) the two molecules so that portions of the molecules that would normally form intermolecular bonds lie next to each other.
Create a double bond between the third and fourth carbon atoms.
Describe the change in the overall shape of the molecule caused by the introduction of a carbon-carbon double bond
Keeping the carboxyl groups as close to one another as possible, orient the molecules parallel to each other
Construct four water molecules and place them around the organic molecules (hexanoic acid) oriented according to the type of intermolecular bonds they would form. In this drawing you will have a molecule of hexanoic acid surrounded by four water molecules
does any one have a link?
