Ca-Cl is an ionic bond. We know this because the difference between their electronegativities is 2.16.The electronegativity tells us which atom will attract the electron more than the other. Hence, chlorine attracts the electron a lot more than the calcium.A difference of more than 1.6 (or 1.7 depending on the source) implies that the electrons are so unevenly shared, that the bond is ionic, rather than polar covalent.
Answer: nn
Explanation:
The nanometre (international spelling as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures; SI symbol: nm) or nanometer (US spelling) is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one billionth (short scale) of a metre (0.000000001 m).
The nitrite ion has one less oxygen than the nitrate ion. Nitrate is NO3-1 while the nitrite ion is NO2-.
Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Backbone in a nucleic acids strand is made up of sugar molecules attached with phosphodiester bond.
This sugar-phosphate linkage helps in joining of nucleotides in a DNA sequence. Due to this backbone structural framework of nucleotides is formed. In DNA, the sugar is deoxyribose.
Thus, we can conclude that the backbone in a nucleic acids strand is called sugar backbone.
