DNA stands for Deoxyribose sugar Nucleic Acid
Deoxyribonucleic acid, a self-replicating material present in nearly all living organisms as the main constituent of chromosomes. It is the carrier of genetic information.The fundamental and distinctive characteristics or qualities of someone or something, especially when regarded as unchangeabable.

What is the mass number of an atom with 17 protons, 17 electrons, and 20 neutrons?

astra-53 [7]

The mass number of this particular element is 37

An element with 17 protons will ALWAYS be chlorine.
The mass number is found by adding the element’s protons and neutrons.
protons+neutrons=mass number

Here is the math if needed,
17+20=37

Therefore the mass number is 37

I hope this helped!

The rate constant for a certain reaction is measured at two different temperatures:

Talja [164]

Answer: The activation energy Ea for this reaction is 22689.8 J/mol

Explanation:

According to Arrhenius equation with change in temperature, the formula is as follows.

$ln \frac{k_{2}}{k_{1}} = \frac{-E_{a}}{R}[\frac{1}{T_{2}} - \frac{1}{T_{1}}]$

$k_1$ = rate constant at temperature $T_1$ = $2.3\times 10^8$

$k_2$ = rate constant at temperature $T_2$ = $4.8\times 10^8$

$E_a$ = activation energy = ?

R= gas constant = 8.314 J/kmol

$T_1$ = temperature = $280.0^0C=(273+280)=553K$

$T_2$ = temperature = $376.0^0C=(273+376)=649K$

Putting in the values ::

$ln \frac{4.8\times 10^8}{2.3\times 10^8} = \frac{-E_{a}}{8.314}[\frac{1}{649} - \frac{1}{553}]$

$E_a=22689.8J/mol$

The activation energy Ea for this reaction is 22689.8 J/mol

How would I fill out this chart?

Sloan [31]

Answer:

[Top row] - Chemical bonds

[2nd Row L-R] - Force, Ionic, Covalent

[3rd Row L-R] - Atoms, Lost or Gained, Shared

[4th Row L-R] - More stable, Metal and Nonmetal, Nonmetal and Nonmetal

Explanation:

Chemical bonds are a force that hold together atoms in a substance to make compounds more stable.

Chemical bonds include two kinds: Ionic and Covalent.

Ionic in which electrons are lost or gained where attraction is between a Metal and Nonmetal.

Covalent in which electrons are shared where attraction is between a nonmetal and nonmetal.

I have been able to fill the concept map using the correct terms or phrases. The concept map talks about chemical bonds. There are two types of chemical bonds; which ionic bond and covalent bond.

What is the formula for lead carbonate?

Irina18 [472]

Answer: PbCO

Explanation: its quite simple really, you need to get a periodic table and find the symbol of said elements. Lead is Pb, and carbonate is another word for carbon and oxygen, so it is C and O

If an element has two isotopes, what is the atomic mass if one of the isotopes has a mass of 15.000 amu and makes up 5.000% of t

olasank [31]

The atomic mass of element is the weighted average atomic mass of the element with respect to the abundance of the isotopes of that element
atomic mass is the sum of the products of the mass of isotopes by their percentage abundance
atomic mass = 15.000 amu x 5.000 % + 16.000 amu x 95.000 %
= 0.7500 + 15.200
atomic mass of element is therefore 15.950
