d) the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution with a pH of 5.0 is twice as great as that in a solution with a pH of 1.0

Each unit on the pH scale has a difference of one order of magnitude in H ions. Simply put, 1 unit on the scale has 10 times as many hydrogen ions as the one previous as you move down the scale from 14 to 1. And vice versa.

So, since 7.0 is 2 units from 9.0, 7 has two orders of magnitude more ions, or 10^2, or 100 times as many.

(1)

peptide bond: linking amino acid together

disulfide bond: two cysteine residues in a polypeptide molecule forms a bond through the sulfahydryl groups.

hydrogen bond: forming alpha helices and beta-pleated sheets

(2)

Heat: denatures proteains

pH: Can disrupt the hydrogen bonds

(3)

fatty acid: Long organic molecule that is lipid soluble. Its long fatty acid tail allows for membranes to form in hydrophilic environments.

H2O: Has an electornegative oxygen and two hydrogens. The hydrogens of one water molecule form hydrogen bonds with the oxygen of another; this allows for the cohesive properties of water.
