Answer:

coding for protein are called exons, and the noncoding regions separating the exons are called introns. Following transcription, these coding sequences must be joined together before the mRNAs can function. The process of removal of the introns and subsequent rejoining of the exons is called RNA splicing.

Answer:

gene

Explanation:

DNA is divided into functional units called genes. A gene is a segment of DNA that codes for a functional product (mRNA, tRNA, or rRNA). Since the vast majority of genes are transcribed into mRNA and mRNA is subsequently translated into polypeptides or proteins, most genes code for protein synthesis

9 grams of hydrogen gas (H2) will SC Johnson need to react in order to make 1 bottle of Windex.

Explanation:

Balance equation for the formation of ammonia from H2 gas.

N2 + 3H2 ⇒ 2 $NH_{3}$

Given

mass of ammonia in 1 bottle of windex = 51 gram

atomic mass of ammonia 17.01 gram/mole

number of moles = $\frac{mass}{atomic mass of 1 mole}$

number of moles = $\frac{51}{17.01}$

= 3 moles of ammonia is formed.

in 1 bottle of windex there are 3 moles of ammonia 0r 51 grams of ammonia.

From the equation it can be found that:

3 moles of hydrogen reacted to form 2 moles of ammonia

so, x moles of hydrogen will react to form 3 moles of ammonia.

$\frac{2}{3}$ = $\frac{3}{x}$

x = 4.5 moles of hydrogen will be required.

to convert moles into gram formula used:

mass = atomic mass x number of moles (atomic mass of H2 is 2grams/mole)

= 2 x 4.5

= 9 grams of hydrogen.

You have 0.5 L of air at 203 k in an expandable container at constant pressure. You heat the container to 273 k. What is the vol

Jobisdone [24]

You can use P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2 but since pressure is constant is becomes V1/T1=V2/T2

V1=0.5 L
T1=203 K
T2=273 K
V2=unknown

0.5L/203 = V2/273
V2= 0.67 L so C

Hope this helps :)
