Which is an example of a building block that helps form DNA? cytosine polypeptide ribose uracil

Chemistry

AnnyKZ [126]3 years ago
7 0
<span>Cytosine is a building block of DNA,
 it is a component to DNAs base pairs and pairs with guanine (these pairs make up the rungs of its double helix)... it is not Ribose as plain Ribose has a hydroxyl group where a hydrogen atom should be if it were to be found in DNA and be deoxyribose (hence deoxyribonucleic acid and not ribonucleic acid since ribonucleic acid is RNA). Uracil is only found in RNA and actually takes Cytosine's place in the rungs of RNA and binds with guanine (although RNA is not in the conventional double helix shape and more resembles a protein in shape). Polypeptide is a long peptide chain and usually associated with proteins and not DNA....</span>

What is the change in boiling point for a 0.615m solution of Mgl2 in water?
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer :  The change in boiling point is, 0.94^oC

Explanation :

Formula used :

\Delta T_b=i\times K_f\times m

where,

\Delta T_b = change in boiling point = ?

i = Van't Hoff factor = 3 (for MgI₂ electrolyte)

K_f = boiling point constant for water = 0.51^oC/m

m = molality  = 0.615 m

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

\Delta T_b=3\times (0.51^oC/m)\times 0.615m

\Delta T_b=0.94^oC

Therefore, the change in boiling point is, 0.94^oC

Write the reaction that occurs when propyl methanoate is hydrolyzed in water and in NaOH
Free_Kalibri [48]

An ester , propyl methanoate ( HCOOC₃H₇) when reacts with sodium hydroxide( NaOH) forms sodium methanoate (HCOONa) as the main product and propanol (C₃H₇OH).

The reaction is as follows:

HCOOC₃H₇+NaOH ⇒HCOONa + C₃H₇OH

So when propyl methanoate is hydrolyzed in water and in NaOH then sodium methanoate (HCOONa) as the main product and propanol (C₃H₇OH) forms

Which two elements have properties that are alike
Feliz [49]
Answer:
Barium and Calcium

Explanation:
When heated with chlorine,
Both calcium and barium are able to form ionic bonds.
Hydrogen can only form bonds that are partial positive. It is not strong enough to be considered an ionic bond.
Silicon forms strong covalent with chlorine, called silicon tetrachloride. The structure is in diamond form which requires a lot of heat energy to break the bonds are way more than energy needed to break the bonds between calcium chloride.
Krypton is an inert element which does not form bonds with any elements under standard conditions
