During cell division, the DNA must be replicated, since the daughter cells need a complete set of DNA. To create TWO DNA, it must replicate. To replicate, DNA unzips, the bases pair up with a different base, and the backbone bonds.

When the cell divides, it "unzips" the DNA to copy it. Therefore, the bonds must be weak. However if there were no bonds, the DNA would simply fall apart.

Give the number of lone pairs around the central atom and the geometry of the ion IBr2.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Option E!

Explanation:

If we were to draw the lewis dot structure for IBr2 -, we would first count the total number of valence electrons ( " available electrons " ). Iodine has 7 valence electrons, and so does Bromine, but as Bromine exists in 2, the total number of valence electrons would be demonstrated below;

7 + 7 * ( 2 ) =\\7 + 14 + 1 =\\22 Electrons

Don't forget the negative on the Bromine!

Now go through the procedure below;

1 ) Place Iodine in the middle and draw single bonds to each of the bromine.

2 ) Add three lone pairs on each of the Bromine's

3 ) Now we have 6 electrons left, if we were to exclude the electrons shared in the " single bonds. " This can be placed as three lone pairs on Iodine ( central atom )!

The molecular geometry can't be linear, as there are lone pairs on the atoms. This makes it bent.

To measure the volume of the blood system of an animal, the following experiment was done. A 1.0-mL sample of an aqueous solutio
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:199mL

Explanation:

Let V ml be the volume of blood in animal.

When 1.0 ml sample is added, total volume becomes V+1.0ml. Its activity is 1000 dpm.

After equilibrium, 2.0 ml of the sample had activity of 10 dpm.

Hence, after equilibrium, the activity of V+1.0 ml of blood sample will be 10/2 (V+1.0ml)=1000dpm

Hence, V=199ml.

Is anyone good at chemistry if so can someone help me please ?<br><br> (NO LINKS)

So, litmus paper is a qualitative tool for assessing the acidity or basicity of a substance (usually a solution). In general, blue litmus turns red in the presence of an acid, and red litmus turns blue in the presence of a base. They can't really tell you much more than that.

The solutions that are most likely acids are those that turn blue litmus red <em>and </em>do not evoke a color change in red litmus. A solution that turns red litmus blue <em>or </em>does not evoke a color change in blue litmus is likely not an acid. Using these criteria, solutions 4 and 7 are most likely acids since they both turn blue litmus red (and they cause no color change in red litmus).

The correct answer choice would thus be D.
