Answer:
Uracil
Explanation:
The base that will NOT combine with 2-deoxyribose to form a nucleic acid is Uracil.
2-deoxyribose is a pentose sugar found in the DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid). It is devoid of oxygen in its 2' position. The bases found in DNA are Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and Thymine. Adenine, Guanine, and Cytosine are also found in RNA (Ribonucleic acid). Thymine is not present in RNA, it is only found in DNA. The base found in RNA is Uracil which in turn is not present in DNA. The five carbon sugar present in RNA is ribose which combines with Uracil.
Answer: The reactivity of group 7 decreases as we move down the group because:
Explanation:
The elements of group 7 that is fluorine to iodine. The halogens are non metals and they react with metals to gain electrons. The metals loose electrons and the non metal gains it.
As we move down the group the atomic radius gets bigger( more electron and more proton) and as a result the outer shells move further away from the nucleus.
There is more distance between the negatively charged electrons and positively charged nucleus.
Therefore the force of attraction between the shells and nucleus is lesser or weaker.
This makes attracting an extra electron from metals very difficult which results in weaker reaction.
Consequently, the reactivity decreases as we move down the group 7
Answer:
The Aufbau Principle
Explanation:
In the ground state of an atom or ion, electrons fill atomic orbitals of the lowest available energy level before occupying higher-energy levels.
They share a common ancestor, but theyre different species
