The answer is hydrogen bonds.

In the DNA double helix structure nitrogen atoms are chemically bonded to hydrogen atoms. Given that nitgrogen atoms are more electronegative than hydrogen atoms, hydrogen atoms in a base-pairing will bear a partial positive charge.

That partial positive charge is atracted to the oxygen atoms (which are also more electronegative than hydrogen atoms) in the same base pairing in DNA.

That atraction constitutes the hydrogen bond.

Stochiometry .How many grams of CO2 is produced when excess CS2 reacts with 4 mols of O2? CS2+O2-SO2 Please balance equation.
Travka [436]

Mass of CO₂ produced : 58.67 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

A reaction coefficient is a number in the chemical formula of a substance involved in the reaction equation. The reaction coefficient is useful for equalizing reagents and products.

Reaction

CS₂ + 3O₂  -------> CO₂ + 2SO₂

mol of CO₂ based on mol of O₂ as a limiting reactant(CS₂ as an excess reactant)

From the equation, mol ratio of mol CO₂ : mol O₂ = 1 : 3, so mol CO₂  :

\tt \dfrac{1}{3}\times 4=\dfrac{4}{3}

mass  CO₂ (MW= 44 g/mol) :

\tt \dfrac{4}{3}\times 44=58.67~g

Sodium metal (Na) reacts explosively with water to form sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen gas. How many moles of sodium are n
Sati [7]

Answer:

308 moles of sodium

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the chemical reaction between sodium metal (Na) and water (H₂O) is the following:

2 Na(s) + 2 H₂O → 2 NaOH(aq) + H₂(g)

From the equation, we can see that 2 moles of Na react with 2 moles of H₂O to give 2 moles of NaOH and 1 mol of H₂ (hydrogen gas). So the stoichiometric mole ratio between Na and H₂ is: 2 mol Na/1 mol H₂. Thus, we multiply the mole ratio by the moles of H₂ to be produced to obtain the moles of Na required:

moles of Na required =  2 mol Na/1 mol H₂ x 154 moles H₂ = 308 moles Na

Therefore, 308 moles of sodium are needed to produce 154 moles of hydrogen gas.

In which case would an electron experience the greatest effective nuclear charge? not all cases describe an atom in the ground s
lisabon 2012 [21]

One electron in an atom experiences the entire positive charge of the nucleus. Coulomb's law can be used in this situation to determine the effective nuclear charge.

In contrast, the outside electrons in an atom with many electrons are drawn to the positive nucleus and repelled by the negatively charged electrons at the same time. The force between two stationary, electrically charged particles can be measured using Coulomb's law inverse-square law, also known as Coulomb's law. Conventionally, the electric force between two charged objects at rest is referred to as the Coulomb force or electrostatic force.

The electron is a subatomic particle with the symbol e or with an electric charge of one elementarily negative charge. The lepton particle family's first generation includes electrons.

What is a change in a substance that does not involve the identity of the substance
GenaCL600 [577]

The answer to this would be a physical change. Physical changes are changes that affect the form of a chemical substance, but not the chemical composition itself. Hope this helped!

If two atoms are bonded with a bond energy of 87 kJ, what must be done to break the bond?
SSSSS [86.1K]
I would say the energy has to be decreased by 87 kj because the bonding is held together by 87 kj so removing that should prevent the bonding from taking place or reverse it I believe. In other words, a certain amount of energy is required to hold the bond together and in the absence of that energy, the bonding will not take place.
