The correct Answer is:
To determine which statement is incorrect about the peptide bond, we need to analyze the properties of the peptide bond and the statements provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Peptide Bond**: A peptide bond is formed when two amino acids link together through a condensation reaction, resulting in the release of a water molecule. The structure of the peptide bond can be represented as `C(=O)-N`. 2. **Analyzing the Statements**: - **Statement A**: "C-N bond length in protein is longer than usual bond length of C-N bond." - **Statement B**: "Spectroscopic analysis shows planar structure of C=O-NH that is peptide group." - **Statement C**: "C-N bond length in protein is smaller than usual bond length of C-N bond." - **Statement D**: "None of the above." 3. **Evaluating Statement A**: This statement claims that the C-N bond length in proteins is longer than the usual C-N bond length. However, due to the partial double bond character of the peptide bond (due to resonance), the C-N bond in a peptide is actually shorter than a typical C-N bond. Thus, this statement is incorrect. 4. **Evaluating Statement B**: The planar structure of the peptide bond is well-established in chemistry. The resonance between the carbonyl (C=O) and the amine (N-H) contributes to the planarity of the peptide bond. This statement is correct. 5. **Evaluating Statement C**: This statement correctly states that the C-N bond length in proteins is smaller than the usual C-N bond length due to the partial double bond character. This statement is correct. 6. **Evaluating Statement D**: Since we have identified Statement A as incorrect, this statement is also incorrect. ### Conclusion: The incorrect statement about the peptide bond is **Statement A**: "C-N bond length in protein is longer than usual bond length of C-N bond."
