Answer:

90 Thymine bases

Explanation:

Chargaff's rules states that in the DNA of any organism, the amount of purine and pyrimidine bases must be in a 1:1 ratio. This means that the amount of Adenine and Guanine bases (purines) should be equal with their complementary pairs of Thymine and Cytosine bases respectively (pyrimidines). (A = T) + (G = C) = 100

Hence, according to this question, if there are 60 cytosine bases, this means that there will be 60 Guanine bases. 60 C + 60 G = 120 pyrimidines

300 total bases - 120 pyrimidine bases = 180 purine bases.

180/2 = 90 equal bases of Adenine and Thymine. Hence, Thymine bases will be 90.

Select the correct answer. Given: 2Al + 6HCl → 2AlCl3 + 3H2 If the chemical reaction produces 129 grams of AlCl3, how many grams
ivann1987 [24]

The reaction produces 2.93 g H₂.

M_r:                        133.34  2.016

        2Al + 6HCl → 2AlCl₃ + 3H₂

<em>Moles of AlCl₃</em> = 129 g AlCl₃ × (1 mol AlCl₃/133.34 g AlCl₃) = 0.9675 mol AlCl₃

<em>Moles of H₂</em> = 0.9675 mol AlCl₃ × (3 mol H₂/2 mol AlCl₃) = 1.451 mol H₂

<em>Mass of H₂</em> = 1.451 mol H₂ × (2.016 g H₂/1 mol H₂) = 2.93 g H₂

Why the planets are arranged as they are in our solar system.​
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The order and arrangement of the planets and other bodies in our solar system is due to the way the solar system formed. Nearest the Sun, only rocky material could withstand the heat when the solar system was young. For this reason, the first four planets—Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars—are terrestrial planets.
