Problems
1 (foundations)

7, 8, 9, 11

2 (water)
4c, 5a, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 16
3 (proteins)

2abcde, 3a, 4abc, 7abc, 10a
11 (the predicted pI ~ 1, answer the rest of the question)
12, 13abcd

4 (proteins)

1ab, 2ab, 4, 5ab
6abc, 8 (skip 2nd question)
10 is interesting

5 (proteins)
1, 2 (given that n<1 is negative cooperativity)
3, 4, 5, 6
6 (enzymes)

1, 4, (maybe 5b), 6, 8, 9a, 12, 15(just give a general answer)

NOTE: I took #7 & #10 off this list.

3 (protein purification)
5, 10a, 14, 18a-f
7 (carbs)
4ab, 5, 6(1st question only), 8 (but you probably have to look at #7 to answer this), 9
10 (lipids) 1, 2, 4 (look at the structures of some while answering), 6 is interesting to read about but you would have to refer back to the chapter probably, 8, 10,
8 (nucleic acids) 1, 2, 5, 6 is interesting, 7, 9, 10, 12,
