How much DNA can be extracted from an onion

Chemistry
1 answer:
konstantin123 [22]3 years ago
4 0
Since the onion (Allium cepa) is a diploid organism having a haploid genome size of 15.9 Gb, it has 4.9x as much DNA as does a human genome (3.2 Gb). Other species in the genus Allium vary hugely in DNA content without changing their ploidy.

Calculate the freezing point of a solution made from 220g of octane (C Hua), molar mass = 114,0 gmol dissolved in 1480 g of benz
stiv31 [10]

Answer: Freezing point of a solution will be -1.16^0C

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point is given by:

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m

\Delta T_f=T_f^0-T_f=(5.50-T_f)^0C = Depression in freezing point

i= vant hoff factor = 1 (for non electrolyte)

K_f = freezing point constant = 5.12^0C/m

m= molality

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times \frac{\text{mass of solute}}{\text{molar mass of solute}\times \text{weight of solvent in kg}}

Weight of solvent (benzene)= 1480 g =1.48 kg

Molar mass of solute (octane) = 114.0 g/mol

Mass of solute (octane) = 220 g

(5.50-T_f)^0C=1\times 5.12\times \frac{220g}{114.0 g/mol\times 1.48kg}

(5.50-T_f)^0C=6.68

T_f=-1.16^0C

Thus the freezing point of a solution will be -1.16^0C

When radium-226 (atomic number-88) decays by emitting an alpha particle it becomes _____.
topjm [15]

Answer:

d. Radon-222

Explanation:

²²⁶₈₈Ra → ²²²₈₆Rn  + ⁴₂He

Alpha particle is a helium nucleus with mass number 4 and atomic number 2. According to the law of conversation of mass, the sum of the mass number and atomic number must be equal on both side of the reaction.  

Since the mass number of Ra is 226 and that of He is 4. The mass number of the unknown element must be 226 - 4 = 222.  

Since the atomic number of Ra is 88 and that of He is 2. The atomic number of the unknown element must be 88 - 2 = 86.  

Now looking in the periodic table Radon is the only element with atomic number 86.

How many atoms of hydrogen are in 0.500 mol of ch3oh molecules?
cestrela7 [59]
In 1 mol of CH3OH, you have 4 H-atoms (because 3 H-atoms are attached to the C-atom, and one H-atom in the OH group). That means in 0.500 mol of CH3OH, you have 2 H-atoms since it is halved. And then we have Avogadro's constant: 6.02 * 1023.

The question asks for how many hydrogen atoms there are in 0.500 mol CH3OH. Using the numbers that we have (Avogadro's constant and no. of H-atoms), the answer of the question will be something like:

<span>H-atoms in CH3OH = 2 * 6.02 * </span>1023<span> = ~1.2 * 10</span>24
