Importance of Glycine: Test

Important information about Glycine

Glycine is a polar molecule, it has 5 instances of different atoms bonding to each other, these are

H->O which is a moderately covalent bond,

H->C which is a highly covalent bond,

H->N which is a moderately covalent bond,

C->O which is a moderately covalent bond, and

N->H which is a moderately covalent bond

In terms of intermolecular forces, Glycine contains dispersion forces as do all molecules. It also contains hydrogen bonds due to the hydrogen in Glycine bonding to N and O which have high electro-negativity values and because of the unshared pairs on the two Os which creates a force between them when the molecule is bonded with itself. Glycine also contains dipole-dipole because it has a negative and positive end which when bonded to itself, would come together.
