Codons.
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

1. C- Three.

2. A- Methionine

3. D- Translocation.

4. C- OH.

5. A - 5'

6. A - 3' carbon

7. A. adenine and guanine

Explanation:

1. A codon is a group of three nucleotide sequence that encodes or specifies an amino acid. This means that, during translation (second stage of gene expression), when a CODON is read, an amino acid is added to the growing peptide chain.

2. The codon that initiates the translation process is called a start codon. It has a sequence: AUG and it specifies Methionine amino acid. Hence, during translation where a tRNA binds to the mRNA codon to read it and add its corresponding amino acid, a tRNA with a complementary sequence of AUG (start codon) binds to it and carries Methionine amino acid.

3. Translocation is a process during translation whereby the mRNA-tRNA moeity moves forward in the ribosome to allow another codon to move into the vacant site for translation process to continue.

4. The sugar component of a nucelotide that makes up the nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) i.e. ribose or deoxyribose, contains an hydroxyll functional group (-OH).

5. A nucleotide consists of a pentose (five carbon) sugar, phosphate group and a nitrogenous base. The phosphate group (PO43-) is attached to the 5' carbon of the sugar molecule.

6. The free hydroxyll group (-OH) of the five carbon sugar molecule in DNA is attached to its 3' carbon.

7. Nitrogenous bases are the third component of a nucleotide, the other two being pentose sugar and phosphate group. The nitrogenous bases are four viz: Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thymine. These bases are classified into Purines and Pyrimidines based on the similarity in their structure. Adenine (A) and Guanine (G) are Purines because they possess have two carbon-nitrogen rings, as opposed to one possessed by Pyrimidines (Thymine and Cytosine).

A sample of 9.27 g9.27 g of solid calcium hydroxide is added to 38.5 mL38.5 mL of 0.500 M0.500 M aqueous hydrochloric acid. Writ
navik [9.2K]

<u>Answer:</u> The excess reagent for the given chemical reaction is calcium hydroxide and the amount left after the completion of reaction is 0.115375 moles. The amount of calcium chloride formed in the reaction is 1.068 grams.  

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}   ....(1)

<u>For calcium hydroxide:</u>

Given mass of calcium hydroxide = 9.27 g

Molar mass of calcium hydroxide = 74.093 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of calcium hydroxide}=\frac{9.27g}{74.093g/mol}=0.125mol

  • To calculate the moles of a solute, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}

We are given:

Volume of hydrochloric acid = 38.5mL = 0.0385 L   (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Molarity of the solution = 0.500 moles/ L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.500mol/L=\frac{\text{Moles of hydrochloric acid}}{0.0385L}\\\\\text{Moles of hydrochloric acid}=0.01925mol

  • For the given chemical equation:

2HCl(aq.)+Ca(OH)_2(s)\rightarrow CaCl_2(s)+2H_2O(l)

Here, the solid salt is calcium chloride.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of hydrochloric acid reacts with 1 mole of calcium hydroxide.

So, 0.01925 moles of hydrochloric acid will react with = \frac{1}{2}\times 0.01925=0.009625moles of calcium hydroxide.

As, given amount of calcium hydroxide is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, hydrochloric acid is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

  • Amount of excess reagent (calcium hydroxide) left = 0.125 - 0.01925 = 0.115375 moles

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of hydrochloric acid produces 1 mole of calcium chloride.

So, 0.01925 moles of hydrochloric acid will produce = \frac{1}{2}\times 0.01925=0.009625moles of calcium chloride.

Now, calculating the mass of calcium chloride from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of calcium chloride = 110.98 g/mol

Moles of calcium chloride = 0.009625 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.009625mol=\frac{\text{Mass of calcium chloride}}{110.98g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of calcium chloride}=1.068g

Hence, the excess reagent for the given chemical reaction is calcium hydroxide and the amount left after the completion of reaction is 0.115375 moles. The amount of calcium chloride formed in the reaction is 1.068 grams.
