Qualitative chemical and enzyme tests helped Avery identify DNA as the transforming principle by conducting <span>a series of tests to find out if the transforming principle was DNA or a protein and the result is that </span>no protein was present but that DNA was present. Hope this answers your question.

Answer:

Qualitative chemical and enzyme tests help Avery to identify DNA as the transforming principle as they clarify the chemical nature of genes, that they are form of nucleic acids.

Explanation:

One of Avery’s qualitative chemical test result was that the transforming principle could precipitate with alcohol, so this demonstrate it was not a carbohydrate.

The enzyme test demonstrated that proteases (enzymes that digest protein) and lipases (enzymes that digest lipids) did not destroy the transforming principle, so the scientist concluded that it was neither a protein nor a lipid.

The bacteriologist found out that the transforming principle was formed of nucleic acids so they tested the sample with ribonuclease (enzyme that digest RNA) but it did not inactivate the substance. And finally he tested it with deoxyribonuclease and it was enzymatically destroyed. So he concluded that the isolated transforming principle was DNA.

Cloud [144]

Analyzing a biomolecule X, a scientist verifies that it is made up of Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen and Nitrogen, in addition to releasing water when it joins with other similar molecules to form polymers. Considering these antecedents, it can be inferred that biomolecule X corresponds to: A Steroids B fatty acid C nucleotide D amino acid E monosaccharide (for people who dont speak spanish)

ok you answer is probably A

if wrong C maybe

1.00 M CaCl2 Density = 1.07 g/mL

Lesechka [4]

Explanation:

Molarity of solution = 1.00 M = 1.00 mol/L

In 1 L of solution 1.00 moles of calcium chloride is present.

Mass of solute or calcium chloride = m

$m = 1 mol\times 111 g/mol = 111 g$

Mass of solution = M

Volume of solution = V = 1L = 1000 mL

Density of solution , d= 1.07 g/mL

$M=d\times V=1.07 g/mL\times 1000 mL=1,070 g$

1) The value of %(m/M):

$\frac{m}{M}\times 100=\frac{111 g}{1,070 g}\times 100=10.37\%$

2) The value of %(m/V):

$\frac{m}{V}\times 100=\frac{111 g}{1000 L}\times 100=11.1\%$

$Molality = \frac{\text{Moles of compound }}{\text{mass of solvent in kg}}$

$Normality=\frac{\text{Moles of compound }}{n\times \text{volume of solution in L}}$

n = Equivalent mass

n = $\frac{\text{molar mass of ion}}{\text{charge on an ion}}$

3) Normality of calcium ions:

Moles of calcium ion = 1 mol (1 $CaCl_2$ mole has 1 mole of calcium ion)

$n=\frac{40 g/mol}{2}=20$

$=\frac{1 mol}{20 g/mol\times 1L}=0.050 N$

4) Normality of chlorine ions:

Moles of chlorine ion = 2 mol (1 $CaCl_2$ mole has 2 mole of chlorine ion)

$n=\frac{35.5 g/mol}{1}=35.5$

$=\frac{2 mol}{35.5 g/mol\times 1L}=0.056 N$

Moles of calcium chloride = 1.00 mol

Mass of solvent = Mass of solution - mass of solute

= 1,070 g - 111 g = 959 g = 0.959 kg ( 1 g =0.001 kg)

5) Molality of the solution :

$\frac{1 mol}{0.959 kg}=1.043 mol/kg$

Moles of calcium chloride = $n_1=1mol$

Mass of solvent = 959 g

Moles of water = $n_2=\frac{959 g}{18 g/mol}=53.28 mol$

Mass of solvent = 959 g

6) Mole fraction of calcium chloride =

$\chi_1=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}=\frac{1mol}{1 mol+53.28 mol}=0.01842$

7) Mole fraction of water =

$\chi_2=\frac{n_2}{n_1+n_2}=\frac{53.28 mol}{1mol+53.28 mol}=0.9816$

8) Mass of solution = m'

Volume of the solution= v = 100 mL

Density of solution = d = 1.07 g/mL

$m'=d\times v=1.07 g/ml\times 100 g= 107 g$

Mass of 100 mL of this solution 107 grams of solution.

9) Volume of solution = V = 100 mL

Mass of solution = M'' = 107 g

Mass of solute = m

The value of %(m/V) of solution = 11.1%

$11.1\%=\frac{m}{100 mL}\times 100$

m = 11.1 g

Mass of solvent = M''- m = 107 g -11.1 g = 95.9 g

95.9 grams of water was present in 100 mL of given solution.
