What is the role of NaCl and EDTA in DNA isolation?

1 answer:

4 0

<span>The following is the role of NaCl and EDTA in DNA isolation, hope it helps:

NaCl provides Na+ ions that will block negative charge from phosphates on DNA. Negatively charged phosphates on DNA cause molecules to repel each other. The Na+ ions will form an ionic bond with the negatively charged phosphates on the DNA, neutralizing the negative charges and allowing the DNA molecules to come together.</span>

The ksp of yttrium fluoride, yf3, is 8.62 × 10-21. calculate the molar solubility of this compound.

motikmotik

Answer:

The molar solubility of YF₃ is 4.23 × 10⁻⁶ M.

Explanation:

In order to calculate the molar solubility of YF₃ we will use an ICE chart. We identify 3 stages: Initial, Change and Equilibrium and we complete each row with the concentration of change of concentration. Let's consider the solubilization of YF₃.

YF₃(s) ⇄ Y³⁺(aq) + 3 F⁻(aq)

I 0 0

C +S +3S

E S 3S

The solubility product (Ksp) is:

Ksp = [Y³⁺].[F⁻]³= S . (3S)³ = 27 S⁴

$S=\sqrt[4]{Ksp/27} =\sqrt[4]{8.62 \times 10^{-21} /27}=4.23 \times 10^{-6}M$
