Methionine, \({\rm{C}}{{\rm{H}}_{\rm{3}}}{\rm{SC}}{{\rm{H}}_{\rm{2}}}{\rm{C}}{{\rm{H}}_{\rm{2}}}{\rm{CH}}\left( {{\rm{N}}{{\rm{H}}_{\rm{2}}}} \right){\rm{C}}{{\rm{O}}_{\rm{2}}}{\rm{H}}\), is an amino acid found in proteins. Draw a Lewis structure of this compound. What is the hybridization type of each carbon, oxygen, the nitrogen, and the sulfur?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The hybridization type of each carbon, oxygen, the nitrogen, and the sulfur is shown in the solution.

Step by step solution

01

Definition of Concept

Hybridization occurs when different pure orbitals with comparable energy are mixed together to produce an equivalent amount of impure orbitals with equal energy and definite geometry, which are referred to as hybrid orbitals.

02

Draw a Lewis structure of given compound

The diagram is given below:

Therefore, the solution displays the hybridization type of each carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, and sulphur.
