    yep go on u start
    right
    Define: isoeletric point (2)
    Define:zwiterrion (1)
    and what happens if glycine is PH 1.6(2)

    oh i'm not good at teh definition but okai:
    isolectric point: the point at which an amino acid acts as a zwitterion

    zwiterrion: has no overall charge. the cooh group is acidic so loses a H+ and the nh2 is basic therefore gains a H+

    if glyicine is at ph 1.6: it froms an NH3+ ion ??? (not sure)

    Definition for optical isomer:?

    Why is it important that when forming a diazonium ion the temp is under 10C?

    Good just the last part yes it forms NH3+ and forms C00-

    optical isomer is where a carbon atom is attached to 4 other atoms/groups chiral carbon

    it is important as it has to be its conditions and not to cause any side affects/not sure

    why coo- isn't that jsu in the alkaline conditions?

    first one's correct but
    2nd one: because the N2+ is unstable so any temp above 10c it would decompose to form phenol, n2 and h20

    that was exactly what i was thinking but saw the jan 2012 paper and so for PH 1.6 they did NH3+ and COO-

    in the presnece of excess ammonia when ffromig a halogenalkane which two products are formed
    soory thats worded wrong excess amonia to a halogen alkane..what two products are formed?

    No to be honest ? but i just learned it has to be NH3+ AND COO - ?
