Answer:

D. Hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs89

Explanation:

A DNA molecule is composed of two long polynucleotide chains made of four types of nucleotide subunits, two purines (adenine and guanine) and two pyrimidines (cytosine and thymine). These nucleotides are joined by covalent bonds forming a phosphate-sugar backbone. <em>These strands are held to one another with hydrogen bonds between the base portions of complementary nucleotides.</em>

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

Based on the ideal gas law, there is a simple equivalency that exists between the amount of gas and the volume it occupies. at s
nordsb [41]
<span>2.10 grams. The balanced equation for the reaction is CO + 2H2 ==> CH3OH The key thing to take from this equation is that it takes 2 hydrogen molecules per carbon monoxide molecule for this reaction. And since we've been given an equal number of molecules for each reactant, the limiting reactant will be hydrogen. We can effectively claim that we have 5.86/2 = 2.93 l of hydrogen and an excess of CO to consume all of the hydrogen. So the number of moles of hydrogen gas we have is: 2.93 l / 22.4 l/mol = 0.130803571 mol And since it takes 2 moles of hydrogen gas to make 1 mole of methanol, divide by 2, getting. 0.130803571 mol / 2 = 0.065401786 mol Now we just need to multiply the number of moles of methanol by its molar mass. First lookup the atomic weights involved. Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107 g/mol Atomic weight hydrogen = 1.00794 g/mol Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999 g/mol Molar mass CH3OH = 12.0107 + 4 * 1.00794 + 15.999 = 32.04146 g/mol So the mass produced is 32.04146 g/mol * 0.065401786 mol = 2.095568701 g And of course, properly round the answer to 3 significant digits, giving 2.10 grams.</span>

How many molecules are there in 4.00 l of oxygen gas at 500.∘ c and 50.0 torr?
Oliga [24]
From  the  ideal  gas law   
pv=nRT , n  is  therefore PV/RT
R is  the
R is  gas  constant =62.364 torr/mol/k
P=500torr
 V=4.00l
T=500+273=773k
n={(500 torr x 4.00l)/(62.364 x773k)}=0.041moles
the  number  of  molecules=moles  x avorgadro costant that is  6.022x10^23)
6.022 x 10^23)  x0.041=2.469 x10^22molecules

A sample of xenon gas occupies a volume of 5.24 L at 411 K. If the pressure remains constant, at what temperature will this
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

161.57 K

Explanation:

V1/T1 = v2/T2

(5.24 L)/(411 K) = (2.06 L)/T2

T2 = 161.57 K
