Question

1. look at the following chemical reaction & label the reactants in blue and the products in red

dipeptide
amino acid 1
amino acid 2
+ h₂o

Explanation:

Step1: Identify Reactants

Reactants are the substances that undergo the reaction. Here, the dipeptide and water ($\ce{H_2O}$) are the reactants as they are on the left side of the reaction arrow.

Step2: Identify Products

Products are the substances formed from the reaction. Here, Amino acid 1 and Amino acid 2 are the products as they are on the right side of the reaction arrow.

To label:

• Reactants (blue): Dipeptide, $\ce{H_2O}$
• Products (red): Amino acid 1, Amino acid 2

Answer:

Reactants (blue): Dipeptide, $\ce{H_2O}$; Products (red): Amino acid 1, Amino acid 2
