What do agents such as chemicals, elevated temperatures, ionizing radiation, and viruses have in common?

Chemistry

Leni [432]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

All of them affect the DNA

Explanation:

Chemicals are compounds that can pass through cell membranes and modificate the DNA, elevated temperatures can denaturalize the cell and therefore damage the DNA, ionizing radiation can pass through cell organelles and reach the nucleus affecting the DNA, and viruses inject its DNA into the genome and modify it.

A tube of air contains a feather and a coin. both objects are dropped at the same time. the coin falls faster than the feather.
Mazyrski [523]
Because gravity treats all mass equally. It doesn't treat heavier objects with greater force. All objects experience the gravitational pull equally. Making the two different weights reach the ground together simultaneously despite their weight differences.

Which of the following can be described as genetic material that describes the cell?
skelet666 [1.2K]
The best answer to this question is DNA. DNA holds the genetic makeup of the body in each individual cell. RNA is part of DNA. The nucleus holds the DNA. Ribosomes turn RNA into protein. That is why the answer cannot be RNA, ribosomes, or the nucleus.

Calculate ΔHrxn for the following reaction: Fe2O3(s)+3CO(g)→2Fe(s)+3CO2(g) Use the following reactions and given ΔH′s. 2Fe(s)+3/
sesenic [268]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:  ΔHrxm = -23.9 kJ

Explanation:

Data:

2Fe(s)+3/2O2(g)→Fe2O3(s),  ΔH = -824.2 kJ     (1)

    CO(g)+1/2O2(g)→CO2(g)         ΔH = -282.7 kJ   (2)

Reaction:

                          Fe2O3(s)+3CO(g)→2Fe(s)+3CO2(g)  

We invert (1) and change the sign of  ΔH

        Fe2O3(s)   →  2Fe(s)+3/2O2(g)  ΔH = 824.2 kJ

We multiply (2) by 3

      3(  CO(g)+1/2O2(g)→CO2(g)         ΔH = -282.7 kJ)   (2)

      3CO(g)+3/2O2(g)→3CO2(g)         ΔH = -848.1 kJ

We add (1) and (2)

Fe2O3(s)   →  2Fe(s)+3/2O2(g)  ΔH = 824.2 kJ

3CO(g)+3/2O2(g)→3CO2(g)         ΔH = -848.1 kJ

Fe2O3(s) +  3CO(g)+3/2O2(g)  →  2Fe(s)+3/2O2 + 3CO2(g)    

Simplify

    Fe2O3(s)+3CO(g)→2Fe(s)+3CO2(g)    and ΔHrxm = -23.9 kJ

Which is the basis of thin-layer chromatography?
solmaris [256]

Answer:

B.) The drug gets carried through a stationary phase by a mobile phase and the retention time identifies the drug.

Explanation:

Chromatography is used in purifying complex mixtures of organic compounds. It uses the adsorption tendencies of compounds to seperate and identify them.

Chromatography is made up of two phases in contact, the stationary phase or non-mobile phase and the mobile phase. The movement of the mobile phase over the stationary phase causes the separation of a mixture into its constituents.

The stationary phase is made up of silica-gel or alumina in a solvent (an adsorbent) and the mobile phase or carrier is the organic solvent which is the drug.

A mixture has particles that cannot be seen but do reflect light
Arturiano [62]
The correct answer among the choices given is the last option. A mixture has particles that cannot be seen but do reflect light. It should be classified as a colloid.  A colloid is a mixture in which one substance is suspended throughout another substance.
