B. The answer is: All nucleotides have a phosphorus atom that can be replaced with 32P.

Nucleotides contain a nitrogenous base, a five-carbon sugar, and, at least, one phosphate group. Exactly that phosphate group in the nucleotide has the phosphorus atom. Therefore, the phosphorus atom in the nucleotide can be replaced with radioactive phosphorus-32 (32P).

PH of 0,035M HCl? How to count if your calculator hasn't got -lg?
IrinaK [193]

<u>Given information:</u>

Concentration of HCl = 0.035 M

<u>To determine:</u>

pH of the solution

<u>Explanation:</u>

Hydrochloric acid, HCl is a strong acid. It will completely dissociate to give H+ and Cl- ions

HCl → H+ + Cl-

Hence the concentration of H+ = Cl- = 0.035M

Now, pH measures the strength of H+ ions in a given solution. It is expressed as:

pH = -log[H+]

pH (HCl) = -log(0.035) = 1.46

Ans: pH of 0.035M HCl is 1.46

How many moles of hydrogen gas occupy a volume of 0.25L at STP?
Igoryamba

Answer:

There are 0,011 moles of hydrogen gas.

Explanation:

We use the ideal gas formula, with the constant R = 0.082 l atm / K mol. The STP conditions are : 1 atm pressure and 273 K temperature. Solve for the formula, n (number of moles):

PV=nRT ---> n= (PV)/(RT)

n= (1 atm x 0,25 L)/ (0,082 l atm/ K mol x 273 K)

<em>n= 0,011 mol</em>
