We identify nucleic acid strand orientation on the basis of important chemical functional groups. These are the _________ group

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

We identify nucleic acid strand orientation on the basis of important chemical functional groups. These are the phosphate group attached to the 5' carbon atom of the sugar portion of a nucleotide and the hydroxyl group attached to the 3' carbon atom

Explanation:

Nucleic acids are polymers formed by a phosphate group, a sugar (ribose in RNA and deoxyribose in DNA) and a nitrogenous base. In the chain, the phosphate groups are linked to the 5'-carbon and 3'-carbon of the ribose (or deoxyribose) and the nitrogenous base is linked to the 2-carbon. Based on this structure, the nucleic acid chain orientation is identified as the 5'-end (the free phosphate group linked to 5'-carbon of the sugar) and the 3'-end (the free hydroxyl group in the sugar in 3' position).

Uranium-238 decays to lead-206 with a half-life of 4.5 x 109 yr. Determine how much uranium-238 decays in milligrams (to three s

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

2.15 mg of uranium-238 decays

Explanation:

For decay of radioactive nuclide-

$N=N_{0}.(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}}$

where N is amount of radioactive nuclide after t time, $N_{0}$ is initial amount of radioactive nuclide and $t_{\frac{1}{2}}$ is half life of radioactive nuclide

Here $N_{0}=4.60 mg$ , $t=4.1\times 10^{9}yr$ and $t_{\frac{1}{2}}=4.5\times 10^{9}yr$

So, $N=(4.60mg)\times (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{4.1\times 10^{9}}{4.5\times 10^{9}}}$

so, N = 2.446 mg

mass of uranium-238 decays = (4.60-2.446) mg = 2.15 mg

The smallest ionic radius among the following. Li Mg Na+ be+

dimaraw [331]

The correct answer is Be+

That is because it lost a single electron but still has the same number of protons, and thus the effective charge attracting each electron is greater, which in turn makes the radius even smaller

which of the following best helps explain why an increase in temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction?

NeTakaya

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

Which of the following best helps explain why an increase in temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction?

(a) at higher temperatures, high-energy collisions happen less frequently.

(b) at low temperatures, low-energy collisions happen more frequently.

(c) at higher temperatures, less-energy collisions happen less frequently.

(d) at higher temperatures, high-energy collisions happen more frequently

Explanation:

When we increase the temperature of a chemical reaction then molecules of the reactant species tend to gain kinetic energy. As a result, they come into motion which leads to more number of collisions within the molecules.

Therefore, chemical reaction will take less amount of time in order to reach its end point. This means that there will occur an increase in rate of reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement at higher temperatures, high-energy collisions happen more frequently, best explains why an increase in temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction.
