Answer:

1=hydroxyl of phosphate

2=hydroxyl

Explanation:

Nucleic acid is the condensation polymer of nucleotide. Nucleotides are link together through ester bond. The hydroxyl group of phosphate on one nucleotide goes to condensation reaction with the hydroxyl group of another nucleotide. This is chain process, a large molecule of nucleic acid is formed. It is also called polynucleotide.

RNA and DNA are formed by the nucleic acid. The building block of nucleic acid made up of three chemicals.

  1. Pentose sugar
  2. Base
  3. Phosphate

Pentose sugar:

The sugars present in DNA and RNA is pentose. In DNA this sugar is deoxyribose while in case of RNA this is ribose sugar. The hydroxyl groups are present on these sugars. Ribose consist of four hydroxyl group while deoxyribose consist of three hyrdroxyl group. These react with phosphoric acid and carboxylic acid and form ester.

Base:

RNA and DNA are consist of four bases:

DNA= Adenine, guanine, thymine, cytosine

RNA= Adenine, guanine, uracil, cytosine

Phosphate:

The inorganic acid H3PO4 is present. The hydroxyl group present on it undergoes the reaction with amines and alcohol to form amide and ester respectively.

Consider the reaction 3Fe2O3(s) + H2(g)2Fe3O4(s) + H2O(g) Using standard thermodynamic data at 298K, calculate the entropy chang
balandron [24]

Answer:

the entropy change for the surroundings when 1.68 moles of Fe2O3(s) react at standard conditions = 49.73 J/K.

Explanation:

3Fe2O3(s) + H2(g)-----------2Fe3O4(s) + H2O(g)

∆S°rxn = n x sum of ∆S° products - n x sum of ∆S° reactants

∆S°rxn = [2x∆S°Fe3O4(s) + ∆S°H2O(g)] - [3x∆S°Fe2O3(s) + ∆S°H2(g)]

∆S°rxn = [(2x146.44)+(188.72)] - [(3x87.40)+(130.59)] J/K

∆S°rxn = (481.6 - 392.79) J/K =88.81J/K.

For 3 moles of Fe2O3 react, ∆S° =88.81 J/K,

then for 1.68 moles Fe2O3 react, ∆S° = (1.68 mol x 88.81 J/K)/(3 mol) = 49.73 J/K the entropy change for the surroundings when 1.68 moles of Fe2O3(s) react at standard conditions.

What is the most mass of (NH4)2CO3 (H=1,C=12,N=14,O=16
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

96.09 g/mol

Explanation:

You just need to first get the atomic weights of the elements involved. You can easily get these from your periodic table.

If you are going to do this properly, please use the weight with at least two decimal places for accuracy (e.g. 15.99 g/mol).

Also, please take note that I will be using the unit g/mol for all the weights. Thus,

Step 1

N = 14.01 g/mol

H = 1.008 g/mol

O = 16.00 g/mol

C = 12.01 g/mol

Since your compound is  

(

N

H

4

)

2

C

O

3

, you need to multiply the atomic weights by their subscripts. Therefore,

Step 2

N = 14.01 g/mol × 2 =

28.02 g/mol

H = 1.008 g/mol × (4×2) =

8.064 g/mol

 

O = 16.00 g/mol × 3 =

48.00 g/mol

C = 12.01 g/mol × 1 =

12.00 g/mol

To get the mass of the substance, we need to add all the weights from Step 2.

Step 3

molar mass of

(

NH

4

)

2

CO

3

=

(28.02 + 8.064 + 48.00 + 12.01) g/mol

=

96.09 g/mol

this is a google search and a example i hope is helps to solve

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Oxygen.

Explanation:

Hello,

Yeast fermentation in the food industry must be carried out under anaerobic conditions as long as when oxygen is present respiration occurs rather than fermentation.

Best regards.
