Problem
Which of the following chemical reactions is/are NOT possible according to Dalton's atomic theory?
a. reaction 1: CCl4 → CH4
b. reaction 2: N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3
c. reaction 3: 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O + Au
According to Charles' Law the volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature in Kelvin keeping the pressure constant.
V∝ T, P is constant
where V, T and P are volume, temperature and pressure
= 
where V₁, T₁, V₂ and T₂ are initial volume, initial temperature, final volume and final temperature.
The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:
A) anaphase
B) prophase
C) telophase
D) metaphase
E) interphase
Answer:
The correct answer will be option-D
Explanation:
Colchicine is a drug obtained from the <em>Colchicum autumnale</em> which is a poisonous European flowering plant. The drug is used to treat joint swelling and gout.
Colchicine shows its effect during the cell division cycle especially during the division of nuclear content. When the cell is in metaphase and is preparing for the anaphase, the colchicine inhibits the polymerisation of the microtubules. The inhibition of microtubules inhibits the assembly of the mitotic spindle as a result of this the DNA do not move into new daughter cells.
Thus, option-D is the correct answer.
