Indicate which of the following statements is FALSE.a. Covalent bonds connect nucleotides in a strand; noncovalent interactions

hold strands into a double-stranded structure.b. Uracil is similar to thymine except that uracil lacks a methyl group on the carbon at position 5 on the carbon-nitrogen ring.c. Frederick Griffith demonstrated that a transforming chemical from dead bacteria could change the genetic information of living bacteria.d. Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty showed that DNA is the genetic information of cells and that RNA is the genetic information of viruses.e. The pyrimidine bases in nucleic acids are cytosine, thymine, and uracil.

Answer:

The false statement is d Avery,Macleod and McCarty showed that DNA is the genetic information of cells and RNA is the genetic information in the viruses .

Explanation:

Avery,Macleod and MacCarty showed that DNA is the genetic material of the cell.

     On the other hand Fraenkel, Conrat and Sanger carried out their experiment on tobacco mosaic virus to prove that RNA act as genetic material in some viruses.

What is the pH of a mixture of 0.042 M NaH2PO4 and 0.058 M Na2HPO4? Hint: The pKa of phosphate is 6.86.
AlekseyPX

Answer:

The pH value of the mixture will be 7.00

Explanation:

Mono and disodium hydrogen phosphate mixture act as a buffer to maintain pH value around 7. Henderson–Hasselbalch equation is used to determine the pH value of a buffer mixture, which is mathematically expressed as,

pH=pK_{a} + log(\frac{[Base]}{[Acid]})

According to the given conditions, the equation will become as follow

pH=pK_{a} + log(\frac{[Na_{2}HPO_{4} ]}{[NaH_{2}PO_{4}]})

The base and acid are assigned by observing the pKa values of both the compounds; smaller value means more acidic. NaH₂PO₄ has a pKa value of 6.86, while Na₂HPO₄ has a pKa value of 12.32 (not given, but it's a constant). Another more easy way is to the count the acidic hydrogen in the molecular formula; the compound with more acidic hydrogens will be assigned acidic and vice versa.

Placing all the given data we obtain,

pH=6.86 + log(\frac{0.058}{0.042})

pH=7.00

A gas that exerts a pressure of ? bar in a container with a volume of 0.5650 L will exert a pressure of 715.1 bar when transferr
uranmaximum [27]
Robert Boyle, the 17th century British chemist, first noticed that the volume of a given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure when kept at a constant temperature. When working with ideal gases we use PV = nRT, but remember n, R, and T are all constant. Therefore we have:

PV(before) = PV(after)

P(0.5650) = (715.1)(1.204)

If the temperature of a gas is increased from 20°C to 35°C, what is the new pressure if the original pressure was 1.2 atm? Assum
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

B.) 1.3 atm

Explanation:

To find the new pressure, you need to use Gay-Lussac's Law:

P₁ / T₁ = P₂ / T₂

In this equation, "P₁" and "T₁" represent the initial pressure and temperature. "P₂" and "T₂" represent the final pressure and temperature. After converting the temperatures from Celsius to Kelvin, you can plug the given values into the equation and simplify to find P₂.

P₁ = 1.2 atm                                    P₂ = ? atm

T₁ = 20 °C + 273 = 293 K              T₂ = 35 °C + 273 = 308 K

P₁ / T₁ = P₂ / T₂                                             <----- Gay-Lussac's Law

(1.2 atm) / (293 K) = P₂ / (308 K)                  <----- Insert values

0.0041 = P₂ / (308 K)                                   <----- Simplify left side

1.3 = P₂                                                         <----- Multiply both sides by 308
