This question is purely balancing the chemical equation where the number of atoms in reactants is equal to the number of atoms in products.
For the mentioned equation:
In the reactants, we have 2 atoms of Hg and 2 atoms of oxygen.
In the products, we should have 2 atoms of Hg and 2 atoms of oxygen.
Since the oxygen molecule is composed of 2 oxygen atoms, therefore the coefficient should be equal to 1 for the equation to be balanced.

__is when two genetic sequences bind together because of the hydrogen bonds that form between the base pairs ​
Anettt [7]

Answer:

I would say that it is the bond called complementary hydrogen bonds

Explanation:

The nucleotides in a base pair are complementary which means their shape allows them to bond together with hydrogen bonds. The A-T pair forms two hydrogen bonds. The C-G pair forms three. The hydrogen bonding between complementary bases holds the two strands of DNA together.

How many grams of fluorine are needed to react with 8.5g of phosphorus?
love history [14]

Step 1: write the equation:

                                          P₄(s) + 6F₂(g) → 4PF₃(g) 


Step 2: Molar mass of P₄ = 30.97 g/mol × 4 = 123.88 g/mol


Step 3: Number of moles of phosphorus

                                                    n = m/M 

                                                    n = 8.5 g/123.88g/mol

                                                    n = 0.07 moles


Step 4: 0.07 × 12 = 0.84 moles of fluorine.

Fluorine is diatomic gas so we multiplied the number of moles by 12.


Step 5: To find the mass of fluorine we multiply the number of moles with the molar mass.

                            Mass of fluorine = 0.84 ×  228 

                                                        = 191.52 grams.
