Hydrogen bonds

Guanine-cytosine and adenine-thymine <em>hydrogen bonds</em> hold the strands of a DNA helix together.

Answer:

Hydrogen bonds

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonds are the intermolecular forces responsible for base pairing and double helix stability in DNA.

The hydrogen bonds that bind the two strands of DNA are “weak” covalent bonds, meaning they easily denature, which means that they separate and reconnect very easily.

Regarding the nitrogenous bases of DNA, Adenine is paired with Thymine, forming the A-T base pair, and there is double hydrogen bonding between these bases. In the same way that guanine binds to cytosine and forms the base pair G-C by triple hydrogen bonding. And the two chains link through weak hydrogen bridges between the nitrogenous bases of nucleotides, responsible for maintaining the double helix structure of DNA.

How many sublevels inn the second energy level?
GREYUIT [131]

There are two subshells that are s and p, which are present in the second energy level.

The energy level can be defined as the fixed distances from the nucleus of an atom where electrons may be found. Each energy level is divided into some Subshells. These subshells are known as s-subshell, p-subshell, d-subshell, and f-subshell. This subshell contains some orbitals, these orbitals are the place where there is the maximum probability of getting the electrons. In one orbital, a maximum of two electrons can be present.

Hence, there are two subshells in the second energy level.

For the following SN1 solvolysis reaction, select the correct rate equation and the overall reaction order (note: CH3OH is the s
sineoko [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

  • rate = K[(CH3)3CCl]
  • overall order is also first order

Since we are told that CH3OH is the solvent for the reaction, as such the rate law equation will only be written for (CH3)3CCl .

How many mL of 0.715 M HCl is required to neutralize 1.25 grams of sodium carbonate? (producing carbonic acid)
jonny [76]

Answer:

34 mL

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 1.25 g of sodium carbonate, Na₂CO₃. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of Na₂CO₃ = 1.25 g

Molar mass of Na₂CO₃ = (23×2) + 12 + (16×3)

= 46 + 12 + 48

= 106 g/mol

Mole of Na₂CO₃ =?

Mole = mass /molar mass

Mole of Na₂CO₃ = 1.25 / 106

Mole of Na₂CO₃ = 0.012 mole

Next, we shall determine the number of mole HCl needed to react with 0.012 mole of Na₂CO₃.

The equation for the reaction is given below:

Na₂CO₃ + 2HCl —> H₂CO₃ + 2NaCl

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Na₂CO₃ reacted with 2 moles of HCl.

Therefore, 0.012 mole of Na₂CO₃ will react with = 0.012 × 2 = 0.024 mole of HCl.

Next, we shall determine the volume of HCl required for the reaction. This is illustrated:

Mole of HCl = 0.024 mole

Molarity of HCl = 0.715 M

Volume of HCl =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

0.715 = 0.024 / volume of HCl

Cross multiply

0.715 × volume of HCl = 0.024

Divide both side by 0.715

Volume of HCl = 0.024 / 0.715

Volume of HCl = 0.034 L

Finally, we shall convert 0.034 L to mL

This can be obtained as follow:

1 L = 1000 mL

Therefore,

0.034 L = 0.034 L × 1000 mL / 1 L

0.034 L = 34 mL

Therefore, 34 mL of HCl is needed for the reaction.

Determine the volume occupied by 0.352 mole of a gas at 25⁰C if the pressure is 81.8 kPa.
lions [1.4K]
Data:
p (pressure) = 81.8 kPa = 81.8*10³ Pa ≈ 8.07 atm
v (volume) = ? (in L)
n (number of mols) = 0.352 mol
R (Gas constant) = 0.082 (atm*L/mol*K)
T (temperature) = 25ºC converting to Kelvin, we have:
TK = TC + 273 → TK = 25 + 273 → TK = 298

Formula:
p*V =n*R*T

Solving:
p*V =n*R*T
8.07*V = 0.352*0.082*298
8.07V \approx 8.60
V \approx  \frac{8.60}{8.07}
\boxed{\boxed{V \approx 1.06\:L}}
