The phosphate group of one nucleotide bonds covalently with the sugar molecule of the next nucleotide, and so on, forming a long polymer of nucleotide monomers. The sugar–phosphate groups line up in a “backbone” for each single strand of DNA, and the nucleotide bases stick out from this backbone. The carbon atoms of the five-carbon sugar are numbered clockwise from the oxygen as 1′, 2′, 3′, 4′, and 5′ (1′ is read as “one prime”). The phosphate group is attached to the 5′ carbon of one nucleotide and the 3′ carbon of the next nucleotide. In its natural state, each DNA molecule is actually composed of two single strands held together along their length with hydrogen bonds between the bases.
The metals will lose electrons while the non metals will gain electrons in order to attain octet structure.
An ion can be cation (positively charged) or anion (negatively charged).
Cations attain octet structure (8) by losing electron(s) while anions become stable or attains octet structure (8) by gaining electron(s).
The remaining elements are completed as follows to attain octet structure;
<u>Element</u>--<u>valence electron</u>--<u>electrons to gain</u>--<u>electrons to lose</u>--<u>ion formed</u>

Hello!
I believe the correct answer to this question is H+ and H2O.
I hope you found this helpful! :)
That would be Protons and Neutrons.
Answer:
CuFeS2
Explanation:
Calculate the moles of each substance by doing moles= mass/relative atomic mass. you should get 0.25 moles of copper and iron and 0.5 moles of sulfur. Then divide all of those numbers by 0.25 (as its the lowest value) you should get 1 for copper and iron and 2 for sulfur. This represents the ratio that they are in within the mineral.
