Answer : A nucleotide is composed of a phosphate group and a nitrogen-containing base.
Explanation :
Nucleotide : It is a building block of nucleic acids or we can say that it is building block of DNA and RNA.
It is composed of three sub-unit molecules which are a nitrogenous base, a five-carbon sugar and one phosphate group.
Nucleotide forms covalent bonds with other nucleotide for the formation of the nucleic acid strand.
Hence, a nucleotide is composed of a phosphate group and a nitrogen-containing base.
The temperature or the average kinetic energy of the molecules
Answer:
This can be solved using Dalton's Law of Partial pressures. This law states that the total pressure exerted by a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressure of each gas in the mixture as if it exist alone in a container. In order to solve, we need the partial pressures of the gases given. Calculations are as follows:
Explanation:
P = 3.00 atm + 2.80 atm + 0.25 atm + 0.15 atm
P = 6.8 atm
3.5 atm = x (6.8 atm)
x = 0.51
Answer:
37.1°C.
Explanation:
- Firstly, we need to calculate the amount of heat (Q) released through this reaction:
<em>∵ ΔHsoln = Q/n</em>
no. of moles (n) of NaOH = mass/molar mass = (2.5 g)/(40 g/mol) = 0.0625 mol.
<em>The negative sign of ΔHsoln indicates that the reaction is exothermic.</em>
∴ Q = (n)(ΔHsoln) = (0.0625 mol)(44.51 kJ/mol) = 2.78 kJ.
Q = m.c.ΔT,
where, Q is the amount of heat released to water (Q = 2781.87 J).
m is the mass of water (m = 55.0 g, suppose density of water = 1.0 g/mL).
c is the specific heat capacity of water (c = 4.18 J/g.°C).
ΔT is the difference in T (ΔT = final temperature - initial temperature = final temperature - 25°C).
∴ (2781.87 J) = (55.0 g)(4.18 J/g.°C)(final temperature - 25°C)
∴ (final temperature - 25°C) = (2781.87 J)/(55.0 g)(4.18 J/g.°C) = 12.1.
<em>∴ final temperature = 25°C + 12.1 = 37.1°C.</em>
