Complementary Base Pairing. Specific pairs can only go together, so when guanine and adenine pair up, its Complementry Base Pairing :)

Hope this helps! Please correct me if im wrong :)

What are the four most common problems that can arise in your motor design?
Nuetrik [128]

Electric motors are an essential part of our daily life as many systems, applications, and services depend on them. Motors today have a long service life and require a minimum level of maintenance to make sure that they perform efficiently. In large buildings, motors have to be maintained on a regular basis because they need to be in operation all the time; one small problem could cause a great loss to the organization.

Usually in large organizations, a motor maintenance program is carried out in which the causes of motor failures are identified and some necessary steps are taken to avoid them or lower their impact. Motors need to be inspected regularly, and other maintenance activities need to be performed to ensure efficient operation. Whenever a problem occurs, it should be corrected immediately to avoid further loss.

The weights of all elements are always compared to oxygen.
marishachu [46]

Answer:

The weights of all elements are always compared to the Carbon-12.

Explanation:

The weights of all elements are always compared to the Carbon-12 because the mass of carbon is 12 which is the exactly the sum of protons and neutrons.  

Oxygen was also considered the standard for some time but later this stander was rejected because in natural O¹⁷ and O¹⁸ were also present and this create the two different atomic mass tables.

AMU:

Atomic mass unit is define as the 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12.

C12 has six neutron and six protons in the nucleus.

This unit is used to express the masses of atoms. We know that masses of atoms are very small and we do not have any such type of balance that can measure very small quantity. So that is way we use this scale to measure small quantity. For example, according to this scale

relative atomic mass of hydrogen is 1.008 amu

relative atomic mass of oxygen is 15.999 amu

relative atomic mass of uranium is 238.0289 amu

relative atomic mass of chlorine is 35.453 amu

(a) Compute the radius r of an impurity atom that will just fit into an FCC octahedral site in terms of the atomic radius R of t
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

a

The radius of an impurity atom occupying FCC octahedral site is 0.414{\rm{R}}

b

The radius of an impurity atom occupying FCC tetrahedral site is 0.225{\rm{R}} .

Explanation:

In order to get a better understanding of the solution we need to understand that the concept used to solve this question is based on the voids present in a unit cell. Looking at the fundamentals

An impurity atom in a unit cell occupies the void spaces. In FCC type of structure, there are two types of voids present. First, an octahedral void is a hole created when six spheres touch each other usually placed at the body center. On the other hand, a tetrahedral void is generated when four spheres touch each other and is placed along the body diagonal.

Step 1 of 2

(1)

The position of an atom that fits in the octahedral site with radius \left( r \right)is as shown in the first uploaded image.

In the above diagram, R is the radius of atom and a is the edge length of the unit cell.

The radius of the impurity is as follows:

2r=a-2R------(A)

The relation between radius of atom and edge length is calculated using Pythagoras Theorem is shown as follows:

Consider \Delta {\rm{XYZ}} as follows:

(XY)^ 2 =(YZ) ^2 +(XZ)^2

Substitute XY as{\rm{R}} + 2{\rm{R + R}} and {\rm{YZ}} as a and {\rm{ZX}} as a in above equation as follows:

(R+2R+R) ^2 =a ^2 +a^ 2\\16R ^2 =2a^ 2\\ a =2\sqrt{2R}

Substitute value of aa in equation (A) as follows:

r= \frac{2\sqrt{2}R -2R }{2} \\ =\sqrt{2} -1R\\ = 0.414R

The radius of an impurity atom occupying FCC octahedral site is 0.414{\rm{R}}

Note

An impure atom occupies the octahedral site, the relation between the radius of atom, edge length of unit cell and impure atom is calculated. The relation between the edge length and radius of atom is calculated using Pythagoras Theorem. This further enables in finding the radius of an impure atom.  

Step 2 of 2

(2)

The impure atom in FCC tetrahedral site is present at the body diagonal.

The position of an atom that fits in the octahedral site with radius rr is shown on the second uploaded image :

In the above diagram, R is the radius of atom and a is the edge length of the unit cell.

The body diagonal is represented by AD.

The relation between the radius of impurity, radius of atom and body diagonal is shown as follows:

AD=2R+2r----(B)

   In    \Delta {\rm{ABC}},

(AB) ^2 =(AC) ^2 +(BC) ^2

For calculation of AD, AB is determined using Pythagoras theorem.

Substitute {\rm{AC}} as a and {\rm{BC}} as a in above equation as follows:

(AB) ^2 =a ^2 +a ^2

AB= \sqrt{2a} ----(1)

Also,

AB=2R

Substitute value of 2{\rm{R}} for {\rm{AB}} in equation (1) as follows:

2R= \sqrt{2} aa = \sqrt{2} R

Therefore, the length of body diagonal is calculated using Pythagoras Theorem in \Delta {\rm{ABD}} as follows:

(AD) ^2 =(AB) ^2 +(BD)^2

Substitute {\rm{AB}} as \sqrt 2a   and {\rm{BD}} as a in above equation as follows:

(AD) ^2 =( \sqrt 2a) ^2 +(a) ^2 AD= \sqrt3a

For calculation of radius of an impure atom in FCC tetrahedral site,

Substitute value of AD in equation (B) as follows:

\sqrt 3a=2R+2r

Substitute a as \sqrt 2{\rm{R}} in above equation as follows:

( \sqrt3 )( \sqrt2 )R=2R+2r\\\\

r = \frac{2.4494R-2R}{2}\\

=0.2247R

\approx 0.225R

The radius of an impurity atom occupying FCC tetrahedral site is 0.225{\rm{R}} .

Note

An impure atom occupies the tetrahedral site, the relation between the radius of atom, edge length of unit cell and impure atom is calculated. The length of body diagonal is calculated using Pythagoras Theorem. The body diagonal is equal to the sum of the radii of two atoms. This helps in determining the relation between the radius of impure atom and radius of atom present in the unit cell.

Define atomic numberand mass number. Which can vary without changing the identity of the element?
Volgvan

Explanation:

Atomic number is defined as the number of an element which represents total number of protons.

When an atom is neutral then it means it contains same number of protons and electrons.

On the other hand, atomic mass is defined as the sum of total number of protons and neutrons present in an atom.

Protons of every element remains fixed because it shows the identity of each element but if we change the number of neutrons then also identity of the atom will remain fixed. This is because changing the number of neutrons will not show any change in number of protons.

For example, ^{2}_{1}H and ^{3}_{1}H are isotopes of hydrogen and they have same number of protons but different number of neutrons.

Thus, we can conclude that number of neutrons can vary without changing the identity of the element.
