Textbook Question
Chapter 4.3, Problem 3CC
DRAW IT Ø Suggose you had an organic molecule such as cysteine (see Figure 4.9, sulfhydryl group example), and you chemically removed the —NH2 group and replaced it with —COOH. Draw this structure. How would this change the chemical properties of the molecule? Is the central carbon asymmetric before the change? After?

When hydrogen covalently bonds to carbon it creates a nonpolar bond. However, when hydrogen covalently bonds to oxygen it creates a polar bond. What is a polar covalent bond, and why does it occur between hydrogen and oxygen, but not hydrogen and carbon?
