a sample of dna contains 20 percent adenine and 30 percent cytosine. What percentage of tymine would you expect to find.

1 answer:

4 0

20 percent.

Since one strand is 20, the opposite that would connect with it (Thymine) would have the same amount so the total would be 100.

Hope this helps!

How does the genotype of a bacterium determine its phenotype? Use the terms gene, mRNA, ribosome, and polypeptide in your answer

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Typically, the genotype is encoded in the DNA by the gene; this gene in the DNA will then undergo the process of transcription and the information in the gene will be transcripted into mRNA. The mRNA will then undergo the process of translation and the information in the mRNA will be translated into a polypeptide chiefly by the action of ribosome. Thus, bacteria with different genotypes will have different protein which automatically means that they will have different phenotypes.

Solid sodium reacts with liquid water to form hydrogen gas according to the equation 2 Na(s) + 2 H₂O(l) → 2 NaOH(aq) + H₂(g) Wha

lana66690 [7]

Answer: 21850.42mmHg or 28.78atm

Explanation: From the equation of the reaction, 2 moles of sodium reacts with 2 moles of water to produce 2 moles of NaoH and 1 mole of hydrogen gas at s.t.p.

molar volume of gas at s.t.p. = 22.4dm^3,

standard temperature = 0°C or 273K,

standard pressure = 760mmHg or 1atm,

molar mass of Na = 23g;

volume of the container= 20L or 20dm^3

From the equation, 2 moles or 46g of Na produces i mole or 22.4 dm^3 of hydrogen.

Therefore, 1kg or 1000g of Na will produce 22.4 * 1000/(46)= 486dm^3 of hydrogen.

To find the pressure of the gas produced, the formula P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

P1= 760mmHg, T1= 273K, V1 (initial volume of gas)= 486dm^3, T2=50.0°C or 50+273K= 323K, V2( final volume of gas= volume of vessel)=20dm^3 P2=?

P1= P1V1*T2/(V2T1)= 760mmHg * 323/(273)= 21850.42mmHg or 1atm*21850.42/760= 28.78atm
