Answer:
We identify nucleic acid strand orientation on the basis of important chemical functional groups. These are the <u>phosphate</u> group attached to the 5' carbon atom of the sugar portion of a nucleotide and the <u>hydroxyl</u> group attached to the <u>3'</u> carbon atom
Explanation:
Nucleic acids are polymers formed by a phosphate group, a sugar (ribose in RNA and deoxyribose in DNA) and a nitrogenous base. In the chain, the phosphate groups are linked to the 5'-carbon and 3'-carbon of the ribose (or deoxyribose) and the nitrogenous base is linked to the 2-carbon. Based on this structure, the nucleic acid chain orientation is identified as the 5'-end (the free phosphate group linked to 5'-carbon of the sugar) and the 3'-end (the free hydroxyl group in the sugar in 3' position).
Answer:
2.67 × 10⁻²
Explanation:
Equation for the reaction is expressed as:
CaCrO₄(s) ⇄ Ca₂⁺(aq) + CrO₂⁻⁴(aq)
Given that:
Kc=7.1×10⁻⁴
Kc= ![[Ca^{2+}][CrO^{2-}_4]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BCa%5E%7B2%2B%7D%5D%5BCrO%5E%7B2-%7D_4%5D)
Kc= [x][x]
Kc= [x²]
7.1×10⁻⁴ = [x²]
x = 
x = 0.0267
x =
