<span>Atomic size is the distance from the nucleus to the valence shell where the valence electrons are located. Atomic size is difficult to measure because it has no definite boundary. The electrons surrounding the nucleus exist in an electron cloud.

Ammonia gas combines with excess oxygen gas to produce nitric oxide and water. How many grams of ammonia gas would have to react
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

11.6g of NH₃(g) have to react

Explanation:

For the reaction:

4 NH₃(g) + 5 O₂(g) → 4 NO(g) + 6 H₂O(g) ΔH = -905kJ

<em>4 moles of ammonia produce 905kJ</em>

Thus, if you want to produce 154kJ of energy you need:

154kJ × (4 mol NH₃ / 905kJ) = <em>0.681moles of NH₃. </em>In mass -Molar mass ammonia is 17.031g/mol-

0.681mol NH₃ × (17.031g / mol) = <em>11.6g of NH₃(g) have to react</em>

the diagram below shows DNA molecules. What do the broken lines connected to hydrogen atoms represent in this diagram?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer is: hydrogen bonds.

Hydrogen bond is an electrostatic attraction between two polar groups that occurs when a hydrogen atom (H), covalently bound to a highly electronegative atom such as flourine (F), oxygen (O) and nitrogen (N) atoms.

According to the principle of base pairing hydrogen bonds could form between adenine and thymine (two hydrogen bonds between this nucleobases) and guanine and cytosine (three hydrogen bonds between this nucleobases).

Adenine and guanine are purine derivatives and thymine and cytosine are pyrimidine derivates.
