Which one of these complementary base pairs can form three hydrogen bonds?

Chemistry
1 answer:
ValentinkaMS [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Option D is the correct answer

Explanation:

There are three hydrogen bonds formed between Guanine and Cytosine base.  

The first hydrogen bond is formed between the oxygen atom on Carbon-6 (C-6) of guanine, and one of the hydrogen atoms attached to the Nitrogen atom (i.e the one of the hydrogen atoms in the amino group) on the Carbon-4 (C-4)of the cytosine base.  

The second hydrogen bond is formed between the hydrogen atom on Nitrogen-1 (N-1) of the guanine base and Nitrogen-3 (N-3) of the cytosine base.

The third hydrogen bond exist between one of the hydrogen atoms in the amino group attached to the second Carbon (C-2) of the guanine base, and the oxygen atom attached to the second Carbon (C-2) of the cytosine base.

If Kp = 0.15, which statement is true of the reaction mixture before any reaction occurs?
Fiesta28 [93]
The given sentence is part of a longer question.

I found this question with the same sentence. So, I will help you using this question:

For the reaction N2O4<span>(g) ⇄ 2NO</span>2(g), a reaction mixture at a certain temperature initially contains both N2O4 and NO2 in their standard states (meaning they are gases with a pressure of 1 atm<span>).  If </span>Kp = 0.15, which statement is true of the reaction mixture before any reaction occurs?


(a) Q = K<span>;   The reaction </span>is at equilibrium.
(b) Q < K<span>;   The reaction </span>will proceed to the right.
(c) Q > K<span>;   The reaction </span>will proceed to the left.

The answer is the option (c) Q > K<span>; The reaction will proceed to the </span>left, since Qp<span> = </span>1<span>, and 1 > 0.15.</span>
Explanation:

Kp is the equilibrium constant in term of the partial pressures of the gases.

Q is the reaction quotient. It is a measure of the progress of a chemical reaction.

The reaction quotient has the same form of the equilibrium constant but using the concentrations or partial pressures at any moment.

At equilibrium both Kp and Q are equal. Q = Kp

If Q < Kp then the reaction will go to the right (forward reaction) trying to reach the equilibrium,

If Q > Kp then the reaction will go to the left (reverse reaction) trying to reach the equilibrium.

Here, the state is that both pressures are 1 atm, so Q = (1)^2 / 1 = 1.

Since, Q = 1 and Kp = 0.15, Q > Kp and the reaction will proceed to the left.

A serving of Cheez-Its releases 1.30 x 10^4 kcal (1 kcal = 4.18 kJ) when digested by your body. If this same amount of energy we
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

The final temperature is:- 7428571463.57 °C

Explanation:

The expression for the calculation of heat is shown below as:-

Q=m\times C\times \Delta T

Where,  

Q  is the heat absorbed/released

m is the mass

C is the specific heat capacity

\Delta T  is the temperature change

Thus, given that:-

Mass of water = 1.75 mg = 0.00175 g ( 1 g = 0.001 mg)

Specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g°C

Initial temperature = 35 °C

Final temperature = x °C

\Delta T=(x-35)\ ^0C/tex]&#10;Q = [tex]1.3\times 10^4 kcal

Also, 1 kcal = 4.18 kJ = 4.18\times 10^3 J

So, Q = 1.3\times 10^4\times 4.18\times 10^3 J = 54340000 J

So,  

54340000=0.00175\times 4.18\times (x-35)

0.00175\times \:4.18\left(x-35\right)=54340000

x-35=\frac{54340000}{0.007315}

x=7428571463.57

Thus, the final temperature is:- 7428571463.57 °C

A 100.0 mL sample of 0.300 M NaOH is mixed with a 100.0 mL sample of 0.300 M HNO3 in a coffee cup calorimeter. If both solutions
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Qm  = -55.8Kj/mole

Explanation:

NaOH(aq) + HNO₃(aq) => NaNO₃(aq) + H₂O(l)

Qm = (mc∆T)water /moles acid

Given => 100ml(0.300M) NaOH(aq) + 100ml(0.300M)HNO₃(aq)

=> 0.03mole NaOH(aq) + 0.03mole HNO₃(aq)

=> 0.03mole NaNO₃(aq) + 0.03mole H₂O(l)

ΔH⁰rxn = [(200ml)(1.00cal/g∙°C)(37 – 35)°C]water / 0.03mole HNO₃

= 13,333 cal/mole x 4.184J/cal = 55,787J/mol = 55.8Kj/mole (exothermic)*

Heat of reactions comes from formation of H-Oxy bonds on formation of water of reaction and heats the 200ml of solvent water from 35⁰C to 37⁰C.
