question 3 (1 point)
the amino functional group is acidic.
true
false

Explanation:

Question 2

The carboxyl functional group ($-\text{COOH}$) can donate a proton ($\text{H}^+$), making it acidic, not alkaline/basic. So the statement is false.

The amino functional group ($-\text{NH}_2$ or related) can accept a proton, acting as a base (alkaline), not acidic. So the statement is false.

Answer:

False
