Short-Answer Questions
33. Using Coulomb’s law, describe how water is an ideal solvent for the ions found in cells?
Ans: The force which attracts two oppositely charged ions is measured by a constant a kq1q2
Kq1q2 divided the dielectric constant of the solvent × R. This means that a solvent such
as water, with a high dielectric constant, will result in a lowered attractive force.
Section: 2.4
34. What is the significance of hydrogen bonding in biochemical structures such as DNA?
Ans: The bonds are weak enough to be easily disrupted; yet when many are present, they
provide the stabilization necessary for larger structures such as DNA.
Section: 2.3
35. What is an electrostatic interaction? Give an example.
Ans: It is the attractive force of two oppositely charged atoms. Salts (such as NaCl) are a
common example.
Section: 2.3
36. How is water able to be a solvent for so many biological molecules?
Ans: Many biological molecules have polar characteristics. Water is extremely polar and is
capable of competing with other polar molecules by weakening their electrostatic and
hydrogen bonds. The oxygen can act as a hydrogen-bond acceptor, and the hydrogen can
act as a donor.
Section: 2.2
37. What is the net effect of many van der Waals interactions?
Ans: At the interface of two large molecules, the numerous van der Waals interactions can
substantially affect and stabilize the interaction.
Section: 2.3
Chapter 2 Water, Weak Bonds, and the Generation of Order Out of Chaos 6
38. How is protein folding driven?
Ans: Nonpolar amino acids associate with each other, forming the interior of folded proteins.
This causes an increase in the entropy of water and thermodynamically drives protein
folding.
Section: 2.4
39. If noncovalent bonds are so much weaker than covalent bonds, how do they stabilize large
biochemical structures?
Ans: There is stability in numbers.
Section: Introduction
40. What thermodynamic and free-energy changes participate in protein folding?
Ans: A combination of hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces affect enthalpy and the
entropy associated with hydrophobic interactions.
Section: 2.4
41. How do hydrophobic interactions aid in membrane formation?
Ans: Hydrophobic interaction causes the nonpolar tails to aggregate and form the interior of
the membrane. This results in a net release of heat and a favorable change in the system
enthalpy.
Section: 2.4
42. Give examples of key functional groups found in biochemistry.
Ans: Hydrophobic, hydroxyl, aldehyde, keto, carboxyl, amino, phosphoryl, sulfhydryl
Section: 2.5, Table 2.1
43. Draw a titration curve for the ionization of acetic acid.
Ans: The curve should look like Figure 2.12.
Section: 2.5
44. Why are conjugate acid–base pairs so important in biological systems?
Ans: The conjugate acid–base pairs in biological systems act as buffers. Many metabolic
activities release protons, and these can combine with the conjugate base and so have
little effect on the pH.
