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).

Describe the three main types of plate boundary interactions:
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

In the explanation

Explanation:

Divergent: When two plates are diverging from each other, meaning that the two plates are moving away from each other. Events that may occur include ridges or rifts.

Convergent: When two plates are moving towards each other.

If a continental plate and an oceanic plate are converging, the oceanic plate would slide underneath the continental plate since it is thinner. This would result in subduction, which means that part of the oceanic plate would hang underneath the continental plate, where magma can melt the hanging part.

If two continental plates are converging, the crash would result in mountains or volcanic activity. Magma could rise and rush from the crack. There would be a bump in these tectonic plates.

Transform: When two plates are sliding past each other. Earthquakes can occur when the plates are sliding. When an oceanic plate is involved, the movement of the plates could cause a tsunami as well. The water above the transform fault could rise, and grow bigger and bigger. The 2011 Japan Tsunami is a good example of this.

Explain why the amino group of p-aminobenzoic acid does not participate in the reaction
lubasha [3.4K]

This is because amino group of p-aminobenzoic acid is an aniline and is less electrophilic than an alkyl amine.

<h3>What is an Aniline?</h3>

This is an aromatic amine which consists of a phenyl group attached to an amino group.

The amino group of p-aminobenzoic acid being an aniline makes it less electrophilic which is why an alkyl amine participates in the reaction instead.

Which reaction most accurately represents the dissociation of nitrous acid (hno2) in water?
yanalaym [24]

When nitrous acid (HNO₂) dissociates in water (H₂O), the reaction that best captures this process is:

                HNO₂ (aq.) + H₂O ↔  H₃O⁺ (aq.) + NO₂⁻ (aq.)

How does one know about HNO₂?

  • The chemical designation for nitrous acid is HNO₂, and it is a monoprotic acid. Three elements—hydrogen(H), oxygen(O), and nitrogen(N), all compose it.
  • It is highly fragile in nature and only occurs in solutions.
  • It is employed to convert amines into diazonium salts.

Is HNO₂ a basic or an acid?

Acidity is assigned to nitrous acid (HNO₂). Once dissolved in water, it gives out H+ ions. Acid is a chemical that produces H+ ions in a water-based solution or gives the protons to other molecules.

Thus, HNO₂ is acid because it causes a mixture of water to contain H+ ions. In a 10 mM concentration, it possesses a pH of 2.67.
