Is there anyone can share to me the differences between Opt=Z-matrix and Opt=ModRed in Gaussian 09?

01 January 2017 0 9K Report

I am quite new in using Gaussian 09. Is there anyone can share to me the differences between Opt=Z-matrix and Opt=ModRed? Which one should be used under what circumstances? Thank you.

Why the pH of xanthan gum in aqueous solution is 7 (neutral) when it has glucuronic and pyruvic acids in its chemical structure?

I find it pretty confusing since xanthan gum has both glucuronic and pyruvic acids in its chemical structure, it should release H+ ions upon solvation in an aqueous solution and make it acidic.
