The correct answer is correcting errors.

The prime activity of DNA polymerase is to synthesize DNA from nucleotides, that is, the building blocks of DNA. There are many kinds of DNA polymerase, which does an essential role in the replication of DNA and they generally function in pairs to duplicate one molecule of double-stranded DNA into two novel double-stranded molecules of DNA.

Apart from developing new copies of DNA, the DNA polymerase is accountable for proofreading the strand so that the misplaced or the wrong base pairs can be corrected. This maintains the veracity of the original strand of DNA, which is passed onto the daughter cells.

Which of the following best defines molar mass?

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

D. the mass of one mole of a substance

Explanation:

The molar mass of a substance is the mass in grams of one mole of the substance.

For an element, the molar mass is the relative atoms mass expressed in grams.
For example 23g of Na, 40g of oxygen
For compounds, molar mass is the gram -formula or gram - molecular weight.
This is determined by the addition of its component atomic masses and then expressed in grams.

DUE TOMORROW!!! 15 POINTS

Lunna [17]

Answer:

A. write balanced chemical equation (including states), for this process.

Explanation:

Almost all hydrocarbon 'burn' reactions involve oxygen; it's by far the most reactive substance in air.

Hydrocarbon combustions always involve

[some hydrocarbon] + oxygen --> carbon dioxide + steam.

C6H6(l) + O2 (g)--> CO2 (g)+ H2O (g)

Balance carbon, six on each side:

C6H6(l) + O2 (g)--> 6CO2 (g)+ H2O (g)

Balance hydrogen, six on each side:

C6H6(l) + O2 (g)--> 6CO2(g) + 3H2O (g)

Now, we have fifteen oxygens on the right and O2 on the left.

Two ways to deal with that. We can use a fraction:

C6H6 (l)+ (15/2)O2 (g)--> 6CO2 (g)+ 3H2O (g)

Or, if you prefer to have whole number coefficients, double everything

to get rid of the fraction:

2C6H6 (l)+ 15O2 (g)--> 12CO2 (g)+ 6H2O (g)

With the SATP states thrown in...

C6H6(l) + (15/2)O2(g) --> 6CO2(g) + 3H2O(g)

If 1,079.75 Joules of heat are added to 77.75 grams of water, by how many degrees Celsius would the water increase? Assume water

djyliett [7]

Answer:

If 1,079.75 Joules of heat are added to 77.75 grams of water, by 3.32 degrees Celsius the temperature of water will increase

$\Delta T=3.32 C^{0}$

Explanation:

$q = mC\Delta T$

Here , q = heat added / removed from the substance

m = mass of the substance taken

$\Delta T$ = Change in temperature

C = specific heat capacity of the substance

In liquid state the value of C for water is :

$4.18 J/gC^{0}$

Given values :

q = 1079.75 J

m = 77.75 gram

Insert the value of C, m , q in the given equation

$q = mC\Delta T$

on transposing ,

$\Delta T=\frac{q}{mC}$

$\Delta T=\frac{1079.75}{77.75\times 4.18}$

$\Delta T=3.32 C^{0}$

A mixture contains O2 at 700. torr pressure, F2 at 500. torr pressure, and Cl2 at 500. torr pressure. What is the total pressure

Softa [21]

You have to use Dalton's law of partial pressure for this question. Dalton's law of partial pressure basically states that the total pressure of the system is all of the partial pressures of the components added together. Therefore to answer the question you just need to add all the patial pressures together meaning that the total pressure would be 700+500+500=1700.

The answer would be 1700 torr.

I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear or if you have any further questions.

As concentrated energy is used to do _____ , it becomes spread out.

nekit [7.7K]

As concentrated energy is used to do WORK, it becomes spread out.
The universe is made up of constant supply of energy. Energy is use to do work; the usefulness of energy is been degraded as it is been used to carry out work. For instance, the energy in petrol is used to run motor vehicles, the process result in the conversion of the chemical energy in the petrol to heat energy. The heat energy that is produced can not be easily gathered and used again, thus, the usefulness of that heat energy has been degraded.
