What protein molecules does DNA wrap around to form a nucleosome

Chemistry
1 answer:
Delvig [45]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Histone proteins.

Explanation:

Histones are known as the special type of proteins which are +ve charged and low molecular in weight. They are highly basic proteins and containing basic amino acids such as arginine and lysine. Histones are +ve charged proteins and DNA is -ve charged in nature, due to the presence of phosphate groups in DNA backbone, histones bind with DNA very tightly and form a complex known as Nucleosome.

The Nucleosome is known as the fundamental unit of DNA packaging which is composed of an Octameric core of histone proteins (two each of histones H2A, H2B, H3, and H4) around which the double helix of DNA is wrapped.

How many grams of XeF6 are required to react with 0.579 L of hydrogen gas at 6.46 atm and 45°C in the reaction shown below?
ankoles [38]
The chemical reaction equation for this is 

XeF6 + 3H2 ---> Xe + 6HF

Assuming gas behaves ideally, we use the ideal gas formula to solve for number of moles H2 with T = 318.15K (45C), P = 6.46 atm, V = 0.579L. Then we use the gas constant R = 0.08206 L atm K-1 mol-1.

we get n = 0.1433 moles H2

to get the mass of XeF6, 

we divide 0.1433 moles H2 by 3 since 1 mole XeF6 needs 3 moles H2 to react then multiply by the molecular weight of XeF6 which is 245.28 g/mole XeF6.

0.1433 moles H2 x \frac{1 mole XeF6}{3 moles H2} x \frac{245.28 g XeF6}{1 mole XeF6} = 11.71 g XeF6

Therefore, 11.71 g of XeF6 is needed to completely react with 0.579 L of Hydrogen gas at 45 degrees Celcius and 6.46 atm.

swat32

Answer:

14.7838

Explanation:

Given that;

A student uses a solution that contains 16 g of water to conduct an experiment and at the end of an hour ; the amount have decreased by 3.5%

The mathematically illustration for this is given as

= 16 g ×  3.5%

= 16 *\frac{3.5}{100}

= 0.56  

After an hour; the amount have decreased by 16 - 0.56

= 15.44

after 2 hours the water decreased by another 4.25%

i.e  15.44 * \frac{ 4.25}{100}

⇒ 0.6562

after two hours , the amount would have decreased by:

= 15.44 - 0.6562

= 14.7838

A sample of nitrogen gas is at a temperature of 50 c and a pressure of 2 atm. If the volume of the sample remains constant and t
Lilit [14]

Answer:

The new temperature of the nitrogen gas is 516.8 K or 243.8 C.

Explanation:

Gay-Lussac's law indicates that, as long as the volume of the container containing the gas is constant, as the temperature increases, the gas molecules move faster. Then the number of collisions with the walls increases, that is, the pressure increases. That is, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to its temperature.

Gay-Lussac's law can be expressed mathematically as follows:

\frac{P}{T} =k

Where P = pressure, T = temperature, K = Constant

You want to study two different states, an initial state and a final state. You have a gas that is at a pressure P1 and at a temperature T1 at the beginning of the experiment. By varying the temperature to a new value T2, then the pressure will change to P2, and the following will be fulfilled:

\frac{P1}{T1} =\frac{P2}{T2}

In this case:

  • P1= 2 atm
  • T1= 50 C= 323 K (being 0 C= 273 K)
  • P2= 3.2 atm
  • T2= ?

Replacing:

\frac{2 atm}{323 K} =\frac{3.2 atm}{T2}

Solving:

T2*\frac{2 atm}{323 K} =3.2 atm

T2=3.2 atm*\frac{323 K}{2 atm}

T2= 516.8 K= 243.8 C

<u><em>The new temperature of the nitrogen gas is 516.8 K or 243.8 C.</em></u>

Answer these questions based on 234. 04360 as the atomic mass of thorium-234. The masses for the subatomic particles are given.
nikdorinn [45]

The mass defect for the isotope thorium-234 if given mass is 234.04360 amu is 1.85864 amu.

<h3>How do we calculate atomic mass?</h3>

Atomic mass (A) of any atom will be calculated as:

A = mass of protons + mass of neutrons

In the Thorium-234:

Number of protons = 90

Number of neutrons = 144

Mass of one proton = 1.00728 amu

Mass of one neutron = 1.00866 amu

Mass of thorium-234 = 90(1.00728) + 144(1.00866)

Mass of thorium-234 = 90.6552 + 145.24704 = 235.90224 amu

Given mass of thorium-234 = 234.04360 amu

Mass defect = 235.90224 - 234.04360 = 1.85864 amu

Hence required value is 1.85864 amu.

Which of the following solids would not decompose on heating​
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Anhydrous sodium carbonate is stable to heat and does not decompose even when it is heated to redness. This is because sodium carbonate salt on heating with acids react to release carbon dioxide.
