Chemistry
1 answer:
Gnom [1K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer : A nucleotide is composed of a phosphate group and a nitrogen-containing base.

Explanation :

Nucleotide : It is a building block of nucleic acids or we can say that it is building block of DNA and RNA.

It is composed of three sub-unit molecules which are a nitrogenous base, a five-carbon sugar and one phosphate group.

Nucleotide forms covalent bonds with other nucleotide for the formation of the nucleic acid strand.

Hence, a nucleotide is composed of a phosphate group and a nitrogen-containing base.

A precipitate forms when mixing solutions of sodium fluoride (NaF) and lead II nitrate (Pb(NO3)2). Complete and balance the net
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The molecular equation shows all the compounds involved in the reaction.

The molecular equation is as follows;

2NaF(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) -------> PbF2(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)

The complete ionic equation shows all the ions involved in the reaction

The complete ionic equation;

2Na^+(aq) + 2F^-(aq) + Pb^2+(aq) + 2NO3^-(aq) -------->PbF(s) + 2Na^+(aq) +2NO3^-(aq)

The net Ionic equation shows the ions that actually participated in the reaction

The net ionic equation is;

2F^-(aq) + Pb^2+(aq)--------> PbF(s)

A silver cube with an edge length of 2.42 cm and a gold cube with an edge length of 2.75 cm are both heated to 85.4 ∘C and place
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

Explanation:

Volume of silver cube = 2.42³ = 14.17 cm³

mass of silver cube = volume x density

= 14.17 x 10.49 = 148.64 gm

Volume of gold cube = 2.75³ = 20.8  cm³

mass of gold cube =  20.8 x 19.3 = 401.44 gm

specific heat of silver and gold are .24 and .129 J /g°C

mass of 112 mL water = 112 g

Heat absorbed = heat lost = mass x specific heat x temperature fall or rise

Heat lost by metals

= 148.64 x .24 x ( 85.4 -T) + 401.44 x .129 x ( 85.4 - T )

= (35.67 + 51.78 ) x ( 85.4 - T )

87.45 x ( 85.4 - T )

= 7468.23 - 87.45 T

Heat gained by water

= 112 x 1 x ( T - 20.5 )

= 112 T - 2296

Heat lost = heat gained

7468.23 - 87.45 T = 112 T - 2296

199.45 T = 9764.23

T = 48.95° C

How many atoms of zirconium are in 0.3521 mol of zirconium?
lora16 [44]

Answer:

2.12×10²³ atoms.

Explanation:

From Avogadro's hypothesis, we understood that 1 mole of any substance contains 6.02×10²³ atoms. This simply means that 1 mole of zirconium also 6.02×10²³ atoms.

Thus, we can obtain the number of atoms present in 0.3521 mole of zirconium as follow:

1 mole of zirconium also 6.02×10²³ atoms.

Therefore, 0.3521 mole of zirconium will contain = 0.3521 × 6.02×10²³ = 2.12×10²³ atoms.

Therefore, 0.3521 mole of zirconium contains 2.12×10²³ atoms.
