Glycine

\left(\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_5 \mathrm{O}_2 \mathrm{~N}\right)

is the simplest of amino acids. Molecular formula of the linear oligomer synthesized by linking ten glycine molecules together via a condensation reaction would be

Options

A $\mathrm{C}_{20} \mathrm{H}_{32} \mathrm{O}_{11} \mathrm{~N}_{10}$
B $\mathrm{C}_{20} \mathrm{H}_{68} \mathrm{O}_{29} \mathrm{~N}_{10}$
C $\mathrm{C}_{20} \mathrm{H}_{40} \mathrm{O}_{10} \mathrm{~N}_{10}$
D $\mathrm{C}_{20} \mathrm{H}_{50} \mathrm{O}_{20} \mathrm{~N}_{10}$

Correct answer

A. $\mathrm{C}_{20} \mathrm{H}_{32} \mathrm{O}_{11} \mathrm{~N}_{10}$

Step-by-step solution
