What would be a good way to increase by 10 fold the buffering capabilities of a weak acid solution? a. Increase its pKa by 1 unit. b. Adjust the pH of the buffer to 10 units above its pKa value. c. Adjust the pH of the buffer to 1 unit below its pKa value. d. Increase its Ka by 1­ fold. e. Increase the concentration of the weak acid buffer by 10 fold. 9. How do the pKa values of an amino terminal group compare when the amino acid is free versus when it is in a polypeptide chain? a. The pKa of the terminal amino group is independent of whether the amino acid is in a polypeptide chain or is free. b. The pKa of the terminal amino group is usually lower in the free amino acid. c. The pKa of the terminal amino group of an amino acid in the middle of a polypeptide chain may be lower or higher than on free amino acids depending in differences in their microenvironments. d. The pKa of the amino group is usually higher in a polypeptide chain. e. The pKa of the am [Show More]
