Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To write the zwitterion structure for glycine, we need to understand the basic structure of glycine and how it behaves in solution. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Structure of Glycine**: Glycine is the simplest amino acid with the formula NH₂CH₂COOH. It contains an amino group (-NH₂), a carboxyl group (-COOH), and a hydrogen atom as its side chain. 2. **Draw the Basic Structure**: ...
