<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is thymine.

<u>Explanation:</u>

DNA is known as deoxy ribonucleic acid. This molecule contains 4 nitrogenous bases, which are adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C) and guanine(G). This molecule forms double helix structure.

Adenine formed two hydrogen bonds only with thymine and cytosine forms three hydrogen bonds only with guanine.

Thus, the amount of adenine (A) will be equal to the amount of thymine (T).

What mass of sodium chloride (NaCl) forms when 7.5 g of sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) reacts with a dilute solution of hydrochloric
Gre4nikov [31]

 The mass of NaCl  formed  is 8.307  grams


<u><em> calculation</em></u>

step 1: write the equation  for reaction

Na₂CO₃  + 2HCl → 2 NaCl  +CO₂ +H₂O

Step 2: find the  moles of Na₂CO₃

moles = mass/molar mass

 The  molar mass of Na₂CO₃  is = (23 x2) + 12 + ( 16 x3) = 106 g/mol

moles  = 7.5 g/106 g/mol =0.071 moles

Step 3: use the  mole ratio to determine the  mole of NaCl

Na₂CO₃:NaCl  is  1:2  therefore the moles of NaCl =0.07  x2 =0.142 moles


Step 4:  calculate mass  of NaCl

mass= moles x molar mass

the molar  mass of NaCl= 23 +35.5 =58.5 g/mol

mass  = 0.142  moles x 58.5 g/mol =8.307  grams

A piece of mental with a mass of 106 g is placed in a 50 mL graduated cylinder.The volume rises from 20 mL to 31 mL. What is the
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

9.64g/mL

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the metal  = 106g

Volume of cylinder = 50mL

Volume difference  = 31mL  - 20mL  = 11mL

Unknown:

Density of the metal  = ?

Solution:

To find the density of the metal, we use;

 Density  = \frac{mass}{volume}  

 Density  = \frac{106}{11}   = 9.64g/mL
