With reference to the diagram below and using the theory covered in this course, describe how soap works to remove dirt from human skin.

The side chains of amino acids are responsible for giving proteins their secondary and tertiary structure (they control the way the proteins fold). The two amino acids above are largely responsible for producing the protein structures known as α-helices. However, these structures are very sensitive to the pH of the solution in which the protein is suspended. Explain why these structures are particularly sensitive to pH.

Of the two gases, nitrogen (N₂) and carbon dioxide (CO₂), which one do you expect would deviate the most from ideal gas behaviour at low temperatures? Justify your answer. 

When borane gas (BH₃(g)) is bubbled through water, the solution it forms is acidic. However this acidity does not come from hydrogens on the BH₃ molecule. 

Explain this phenomenon in no more than 3 sentences. (Hint: refer to the different theories of acids and bases learnt this term) [3 marks]

By referring to the concept of electronegativity and bonding types, why is sodium chloride a solid at 25 °C and atmospheric pressure, whereas nitrogen (N₂) is a gas?
