Answer:

Look below

Explanation:

The formula for density is:

$Density=\frac{mass}{volume}$

Therefore in order to find the density of a solid, you must find the mass and the volume first.

To find the mass, you can use a scale.

To find the volume, you can use the water displacement method. For example, if you fill the water of a graduated cylinder to 10 mL, and then you put a rock inside, and it rises to 15 mL, then the volume (of the rock) is 15mL-10mL=5mL.

A covalent bond in which electrons are shared unequally is

tekilochka [14]

Covalent bonds = sharing of electrons between two atoms of the same elements or elements close to each other on the periodic table. Usually they are metals sometimes non-metals. In polar bonds electrons are shared unequally. Non polar bonds share electrons equally.

The base that will NOT combine with 2-deoxyribose to form a nucleic acid is _____.

beks73 [17]

Answer:

Uracil

Explanation:

The base that will NOT combine with 2-deoxyribose to form a nucleic acid is Uracil.

2-deoxyribose is a pentose sugar found in the DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid). It is devoid of oxygen in its 2' position. The bases found in DNA are Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and Thymine. Adenine, Guanine, and Cytosine are also found in RNA (Ribonucleic acid). Thymine is not present in RNA, it is only found in DNA. The base found in RNA is Uracil which in turn is not present in DNA. The five carbon sugar present in RNA is ribose which combines with Uracil.
