According to one acid-base theory, a water molecule acts as an acid when the water molecule (3) donates an H+.
Well it breaks down into small parts
Answer is: hydrogen bonds.
Hydrogen bond is an electrostatic attraction between two polar groups that occurs when a hydrogen atom (H), covalently bound to a highly electronegative atom such as flourine (F), oxygen (O) and nitrogen (N) atoms.
According to the principle of base pairing hydrogen bonds could form between adenine and thymine (two hydrogen bonds between this nucleobases) and guanine and cytosine (three hydrogen bonds between this nucleobases).
Adenine and guanine are purine derivatives and thymine and cytosine are pyrimidine derivates.
With the info given i would have to say their is no kinetic energy, it's all potential energy.
