What is the relationship between nucleic acids and nucleotides?

The nucleotides are monomers of nucleic acid.

The nucleic acids are the macro molecules. They are two types- DNA and RNA. The nucleic acid, DNA consists of nucleotide which are monomers of the DNA. The nucleotides have three components such as pentose sugar, nitrogen bases, and phosphate.

They are the backbone of DNA. DNA is the polymer of nucleotide, and this DNA is coming under nucleic acids. The nucleotides form DNA, and DNA forms the nucleic acid. They are interlinked with each other.

Nucleic acids are the center for storing all the information. The deoxyribose nucleic acid or DNA is the center for storing all the genetic information.

The genetic material is inherited from the parents to the children. The characters are transferred from one generation to another.

The characters such as hair color, hair type, eye color are some of the genetic information that is carried from one generation to another via nucleic acids.

Nucleotide is the basic unit of nucleic acid (DNA and RNA) which store the genetic code of the cell.

It consists of sugar base (ribose or deoxyribose), nitrogenous base (A, T, G, C and U), and phosphate group.

Nucleotides (specially ATP) provides the energy for most of the cellular processes.

Therefore, with the above statements we got to know that both nucleic acid and nucleotides are genetically modified.

When NH3(g) reacts with N2O(g) to form N2(g) and H2O(g), 105 kcal of energy are evolved for each mole of NH3(g) that reacts. Wri
Ganezh [65]

Answer : The balanced chemical equation is,

2NH_3(g)+3N_2O(g)\rightarrow 4N_2(g)+3H_2O(g)+210kcal

Explanation :

Balanced chemical equation : It is defined as the number of atoms of individual elements present on the reactant side must be equal to the number of atoms of individual elements present on product side.

The given unbalanced chemical reaction is,

NH_3(g)+N_2O(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+H_2O(g)+105kcal

This chemical reaction is an unbalanced reaction because in this reaction, the number of atoms of individual elements are not balanced.

In order to balanced the chemical reaction, the coefficient 2 is put before the NH_3, the coefficient 3 is put before the N_2O\text{ and }H_2O and the coefficient 4 is put before the N_2.

The energy evolved in this reaction = 105Kcal\times 2=210Kcal

Thus, the balanced chemical reaction will be,

2NH_3(g)+3N_2O(g)\rightarrow 4N_2(g)+3H_2O(g)+210kcal

what is the volume of a book that has a width of 10cm,a length that is 2 times the width,and a height that is half the width​
Masteriza [31]

width=10cm

length=2xwidth=2x10=20cm

height=width/2=10/2=5

V=w*l*h=10*20*5=1000cm^3

A metal weighing 7.101 g is placed in a graduated cylinder containing 33.0 mL of water. The water level rose to the 37.4 mL mark
musickatia [10]
Volume of the metal = change in volume reading
Volume = 37.4 - 33
Volume = 4.4 ml

Density = mass / volume
Density = 7.101 / 4.4
Density = 1.61 g/ml
