Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Backbone in a nucleic acids strand is made up of sugar molecules attached with phosphodiester bond.

This sugar-phosphate linkage helps in joining of nucleotides in a DNA sequence. Due to this backbone structural framework of nucleotides is formed. In DNA, the sugar is deoxyribose.

Thus, we can conclude that the backbone in a nucleic acids strand is called sugar backbone.

Be sure to answer all parts. Express the rate of reaction in terms of the change in concentration of each of the reactants and p

Tanzania [10]

Answer : The [H] is increasing at the rate of 0.36 mol/L.s

Explanation :

The general rate of reaction is,

$aA+bB\rightarrow cC+dD$

Rate of reaction : It is defined as the change in the concentration of any one of the reactants or products per unit time.

The expression for rate of reaction will be :

$\text{Rate of disappearance of A}=-\frac{1}{a}\frac{d[A]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of disappearance of B}=-\frac{1}{b}\frac{d[B]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of C}=+\frac{1}{c}\frac{d[C]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of D}=+\frac{1}{d}\frac{d[D]}{dt}$

$Rate=-\frac{1}{a}\frac{d[A]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{b}\frac{d[B]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{c}\frac{d[C]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{d}\frac{d[D]}{dt}$

From this we conclude that,

In the rate of reaction, A and B are the reactants and C and D are the products.

a, b, c and d are the stoichiometric coefficient of A, B, C and D respectively.

The negative sign along with the reactant terms is used simply to show that the concentration of the reactant is decreasing and positive sign along with the product terms is used simply to show that the concentration of the product is increasing.

The given rate of reaction is,

$2D(g)+3E(g)+F(g)\rightarrow 2G(g)+H(g)$

The expression for rate of reaction :

$\text{Rate of disappearance of }D=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[D]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of disappearance of }E=-\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[E]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of disappearance of }F=-\frac{d[F]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of }G=+\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[G]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of }H=+\frac{d[H]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of reaction}=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[D]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[E]}{dt}=-\frac{d[F]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[G]}{dt}=+\frac{d[H]}{dt}$

Given:

$-\frac{d[D]}{dt}=0.18mol/L.s$

As,

$-\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[D]}{dt}=+\frac{d[H]}{dt}=0.18mol/L.s$

and,

$+\frac{d[H]}{dt}=2\times 0.18mol/L.s$

$+\frac{d[H]}{dt}=0.36mol/L.s$

Thus, the [H] is increasing at the rate of 0.36 mol/L.s

Pharmacists sometimes measure medicines in the unit of "grains," where 1 gr = 65 mg. The label on a bottle of aspirin reads "Asp

viva [34]

Answer:

325mg of Aspririn

Explanation:

First you should note the information that the problem gives you:

- The bottle of Aspirin has 5gr (grains)

- 1gr(grain) = 65mg (miligrams)

Also, the problem is asking about how many aspirin are in 5 gr (grains), so you should use a conversion factor, as follows:

-First you should put the quantity you need to convert:

$5grAspirin$

-Then you write the denominator of the conversion factor that must have the same units that you want to convert, in this case gr:

$5grAspirin*\frac{}{1grAspirin}$

-Then you write the numerator with the units that you want to obtain and the numerical equivalence between the units, in this case:

$5grAspirin*\frac{65mgAspririn}{1grAspirin}$

-Finally you multiply numerators and divide by denominators:

$5grAspirin*\frac{65mgAspririn}{1grAspirin}=325mgAspririn$

A 0.35 L balloon found at 19 C is heated in an oven to 250 C. What is the new volume of the balloon?

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

V = 0.63 L

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to use the Charle's law which is a law that involves temperature and volume, assuming we have a constant pressure. The problem do not state that the pressure is being altered, so we can safely assume that the pressure is constant (Maybe 1 atm).

Now, as the pressure is constant, the Charle's law is the following:

V₁ / T₁ = V₂ / T₂ (1) V is volume in Liter, and T is temperature in Kelvin.

Using this law with the given data, we solve for V₂:

V₂ = V₁T₂ / T₁

Before we use this expression, let's convert the temperatures to Kelvin:

T₁ = 19 + 273 = 292 K

T₂ = 250 + 273 = 523 K

Now, let's calculate the volume of the balloon:

V₂ = 0.35 * 523 / 292
