Answer:

Adenine is added to the sequence.

Explanation:

DNA stands for Deoxyribonucleic acid. The DNA consists of two polynucleotide chains that bears the genetic material in all living things. The material in the DNA is coded, and consists of four chemical bases: Guanine, Adenine, Thymine and Cytosine. It is vital for inheritance.

Mutation is an alteration in the DNA sequence caused by specific chemicals or radiation. The forms of mutation that can occur in the DNA include:

-The substitution of one base pair for another.

-The removal of one or more base pairs.

-The deletion of one or more base pairs.

0.10 M potassium chromate is slowly added to a solution containing 0.20 M AgNO3 and 0.20 M Ba(NO3)2. What is the Ag+ concentrati

erastova [34]

Answer:

$[Ag^{+}]=4.2\times 10^{-2}M$

Explanation:

Given:

[AgNO3] = 0.20 M

Ba(NO3)2 = 0.20 M

[K2CrO4] = 0.10 M

Ksp of Ag2CrO4 = 1.1 x 10^-12

Ksp of BaCrO4 = 1.1 x 10^-10

$BaCrO_4 (s)\leftrightharpoons Ba^{2+}(aq)\;+\;CrO_{4}^{2-}(aq)$

$Ksp=[Ba^{2+}][CrO_{4}^{2-}]$

$1.2\times 10^{-10}=(0.20)[CrO_{4}^{2-}]$

$[CrO_{4}^{2-}]=\frac{1.2\times 10^{-10}}{(0.20)}= 6.0\times 10^{-10}$

Now,

$Ag_{2}CrO_4(s) \leftrightharpoons 2Ag^{+}(aq)\;+\;CrO_{4}^{2-}(aq)$

$Ksp=[Ag^{+}]^{2}[CrO_{4}^{2-}]$

$1.1\times 10^{-12}=[Ag^{+}]^{2}](6.0\times 10^{-10})$

$[Ag^{+}]^{2}]=\frac{1.1\times 10^{-12}}{(6.0\times 10^{-10})}= 1.8\times 10^{-3}$

$[Ag^{+}]=\sqrt{1.8\times 10^{-3}}=4.2\times 10^{-2}M$

So, BaCrO4 will start precipitating when [Ag+] is 4.2 x 1.2^-2 M
