Answer:
Since the relationship between amino acid and codon bases would be the values of 3 nitrogenous bases per 1 amino acid.
knowing this relationship what you would do is simply multiply 146 x 3 to find the number of codon bases which would be C. 438.
A strand of messenger RNA coding the synthesis of a protein with 146 amino acids must have a string of 438 bases along its backbone and the correct option is option C.
What is messenger RNA?mRNA or messenger RNA is a single stranded RNA molecule. It is complementary to the DNA and carries genetic information present in the DNA. It is translated to form proteins. The genetic codes (triplet) present on mRNA get translated to amino acids, giving rise to the functional product of a gene.
So mRNA really is a form of nucleic acid, which helps the human genome which is coded in DNA to be read by the cellular machinery. mRNA is actually the translated form of DNA that the machinery can recognize and use to assemble amino acids into proteins.
Each strand has 3 bases, so 146 × 3 = 438 bases
Therefore, A strand of messenger RNA coding the synthesis of a protein with 146 amino acids must have a string of 438 bases along its backbone and the correct option is option C.

Which response has both answers correct? Will a precipitate form when 250 mL of 0.33 M Na 2CrO 4 are added to 250 mL of 0.12 M AgNO 3? [K sp(Ag 2CrO 4) = 1.1 × 10 –12] What is the concentration of the silver ion remaining in solution?
Answer:
A precipitate will form.
[Ag⁺] = 2.8x10⁻⁵M
Explanation:
When Ag⁺ and CrO₄²⁻ are in solution, Ag₂CrO₄(s) is produced thus:
Ag₂CrO₄(s) ⇄ 2 Ag⁺(aq) + CrO₄²⁻(aq)
Ksp is defined as:
Ksp = 1.1x10⁻¹² = [Ag⁺]² [CrO₄²⁻]
Where the concentrations [] are in equilibrium
Reaction quotient, Q, is defined as:
Q = [Ag⁺]² [CrO₄²⁻]
Where the concentrations [] are the actual concentrations
If Q < Ksp, no precipitate will form, if Q >= Ksp, a precipitate will form,
The actual concentrations are -Where 500mL is the total volume of the solution-:
[Ag⁺] = [AgNO₃] = 0.12M ₓ (250mL / 500mL) = 0.06M
[CrO₄²⁻] = [Na₂CrO₄] = 0.33M × (250mL / 500mL) = 0.165M
And Q = [0.06M]² [0.165M] = 5.94x10⁻⁴
As Q > Ksp; a precipitate will form
In equilibrium, some Ag⁺ and some CrO₄⁻ reacts decreasing its concentration until the system reaches equilibrium. Equilibrium concentrations will be:
[Ag⁺] = 0.06M - 2X
[CrO₄²⁻] = 0.165M - X
Where X is defined as the reaction coordinate
Replacing in Ksp expression:
1.1x10⁻¹² = [0.06M - 2X]² [0.165M - X]
Solving for X:
X = 0.165M → False solution. Produce negative concentrations.
X = 0.0299986M
Replacing, equilibrium concentrations are:
[Ag⁺] = 0.06M - 2(0.0299986M)
[CrO₄²⁻] = 0.165M - 0.0299986M
[Ag⁺] = 2.8x10⁻⁵M[CrO₄²⁻] = 0.135M

3. What is the mass of an object with a volume of 4 L and a density of 1.25 g/mL?
Answer:
5000g
Explanation:
mass= density × volume
Since the unit of density here is g/mL, we need to convert the volume to mL.
1L= 1000mL
4L= 4 ×1000 = 4000 mL
Mass of object
= 1.25 ×4000
= 5000g
Answer:
5,000 grams
Explanation:
The mass of an object can be found by multiplying the volume by the density.
mass= volume * density
The density is 1.25 g/mL and the volume is 4 L.
First, we must convert the volume to mL. The density is given in grams per milliliter, but the volume is given in liters.
There are 1,000 mL per L. The volume is 4 L. Therefore, we can multiply 4 and 1,000.
4 * 1,000 = 4,000
The volume is 4,000 mL.
Now, find the mass of the object.
mass= volume * density
volume = 4,000
density= 1.25
mass= 4,000 * 1.25 = 5,000
Add the appropriate units for mass, in this case, grams, or g.
mass= 5,000 g
The mass of the object is 5,000 grams.
Compound A is an alkene that was treated with ozone to yield only (CH3CH2CH2)2C=O. Draw the major product that is expected when compound A is treated with a peroxy acid (RCO3H) followed by aqueous acid (H3O+).
Answer:
2,2,3,3-tetrapropyloxirane
Explanation:
In this case, we have to know first the alkene that will react with the peroxyacid. So:
What do we know about the unknown alkene?
We know the product of the ozonolysis reaction (see figure 1). This reaction is an oxidative rupture reaction. Therefore, the double bond will be broken and we have to replace the carbons on each side of the double bond by oxygens. If [tex](CH_3CH_2CH_2)_2C=O[/tex] is the only product we will have a symmetric molecule in this case 4,5-dipropyloct-4-ene.
What is the product with the peroxyacid?
This compound in the presence of alkenes will produce peroxides. Therefore we have to put a peroxide group in the carbons where the double bond was placed. So, we will have as product 2,2,3,3-tetrapropyloxirane. (see figure 2)

Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, we can apply the following principles to explain the order:
- The greater the molar mass, the larger the standard molar entropy.
- The greater the molar mass and the structural complexity, the larger the standard molar entropy.
- The greater the structural complexity, the larger the standard molar entropy.
A. Rank the following substances in order of decreasing standard molar entropy (S∘).
Rank the gases from largest to smallest standard molar entropy
I2(g)>Br2(g)>Cl2(g)>F2(g)
This is due to the fact that the greater the molar mass, the larger the standard molar entropy.
B. Rank the gases from largest to smallest standard molar entropy. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them.
H2O2(g)>H2S(g) >H2O(g)
This is due to the fact that the greater the molar mass and the structural complexity, the larger the standard molar entropy as the hydrogen peroxide has four bonds and weights 34 g/mol as well as hydrogen sulfide that has two bonds only.
C. Rank the gases from largest to smallest standard molar entropy. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them.
C(s, amorphous) >C(s, graphite)>C(s, diamond)
Since the molecular complexity is greater in the amorphous carbon (messy arrangement), mid in the graphite and lower in the diamond (well organized).

What would be the voltage (Ecell) of a voltaic cell comprised of Cd(s)/Cd2+(aq) and Zr(s)/Zr4+(aq) if the concentrations of the ions in solution were [Cd2+] = 0.5 M and [Zr4+] = 0.5 M at 298K?
Answer:
1.05 V
Explanation:
Since;
E°cell= E°cathode- E°anode
E°cathode= -0.40 V
E°anode= -1.45 V
E°cell= -0.40-(-1.45) = 1.05 V
Equation of the process;
2Zr(s) + 4Cd^2+(aq) ---->2Zr^4+(aq) + 4Cd(s)
n= 8 electrons transferred
From Nernst's equation;
Ecell = E°cell - 0.0592/n log Q
Ecell= E°cell - 0.0592/8 log [0.5]/[0.5]
Since log 1=0
Ecell= E°cell= 1.05 V
Using the data: C2H4(g), = +51.9 kJ mol-1, S° = 219.8 J mol-1 K-1 CO2(g), = ‑394 kJ mol-1, S° = 213.6 J mol-1 K-1 H2O(l), = ‑286.0 kJ mol-1, S° = 69.96 J mol-1 K-1 O2(g), = 0.00 kJ mol-1, S° = 205 J mol-1 K-1 calculate the maximum amount of work that can be obtained, at 25.0 °C, from the process: C2H4(g) + 3 O2(g) → 2 CO2(g) + 2 H2O(l)
Answer:
The correct answer is 1332 KJ.
Explanation:
Based on the given information,
ΔH°f of C2H4 is 51.9 KJ/mol, ΔH°O2 is 0.0 KJ/mol, ΔH°f of CO2 is -394 KJ/mol, and ΔH°f of H2O is -286 KJ/mol.
Now the balanced equation is:
C2H4 (g) + 3O2 (g) ⇔ 2CO2 (g) + 2H2O (l)
ΔH°rxn = 2 × ΔH°f CO2 + 2 × ΔH°fH2O - 1 × ΔH°fC2H4 - 3×ΔH°fO2
ΔH°rxn = 2 (-394) + 2(-286) - 1(51.9) - 3(0)
ΔH°rxn = -1411.9 KJ
Now, the given ΔS°f of C2H4 is 219.8 J/mol.K, ΔS°f of O2 is 205 J/mol.K, ΔS°f of CO2 is 213.6 J/mol.K, and ΔS°f of H2O is 69.96 J/mol.K.
Now based on the balanced chemical reaction,
ΔS°rxn = 2 × ΔS°fCO2 + 2 ΔS°fH2O - 1 × ΔS°f C2H4 - 3 ΔS°fO2
ΔS°rxn = 2 (213.6) + 2(69.96) - 1(219.8) -3(205)
ΔS°rxn = -267.68 J/K or -0.26768 KJ/K
T = 25 °C or 298 K
Now putting the values of ΔH, ΔS and T in the equation ΔG = ΔH-TΔS, we get
ΔG = -1411.9 - 298.0 × (-0.2677)
ΔG = -1332 KJ.
Thus, the maximum work, which can obtained is 1332 kJ.
An aqueous solution of potassium bromide, KBr, contains 4.34 grams of potassium bromide and 17.4 grams of water. The percentage by mass of potassium bromide in the solution is 20 %.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
The percentage by mass of a substance in a solution can be calculated by dividing the mass of the substance dissolved in the solution by the total mass of the solution. This can be expressed mathematically as:
Percentage by mass = mass of substance in solution/mass of solution x 100
In this case;
mass of KBr = 4.34 grams
mass of water = 17.4 grams
mass of solution = mass of KBr + mass of water = 4.34 + 17.4 = 21.74
Percentage by mass of KBr = 4.34/21.74 x 100
= 19.96 %
19.96 is approximately 20%.
Hence, the statement is true.

Answer:
8.05 moles
Explanation:
5.50 / 2.954 = x / 4.325
x = 8.05
According to ideal gas equation, if the temperature and pressure stay constant during the process 0.520 moles have been added so that the balloon expands to 4.325 L.
What is ideal gas equation?The ideal gas equation is a equation which is applicable in a hypothetical state of an ideal gas.It is a combination of Boyle's law, Charle's law,Avogadro's law and Gay-Lussac's law . It is given as, PV=nRT where R= gas constant whose value is 8.314.The law has several limitations.The law was proposed by Benoit Paul Emile Clapeyron in 1834.
In the given example if pressure and temperature are constant then V=nR substituting V=4.325 l and R=8.314 so n=V/R=4.325/8.314=0.520 moles.
Thus, 0.520 moles of helium are added if the temperature and pressure stay constant during this process.

What is a mole?
A mole is Avogadro's number of particles, which is exactly 6.02214076×1023.
The mole is widely used in chemistry as a convenient way to express amounts of reactants and products of chemical reactions. For example, the chemical equation 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O can be interpreted to mean that for each 2 mol dihydrogen (H2) and 1 mol dioxygen (O2) that react 2 mol of water (H2O) form.
Number of moles = Mass of substance / Mass of one mole Number of moles
mass of substance = 2.4g
molar mass of calcium hydroxide is (1 ×40.078g/mol Ca) +(2 × 15.999g/mol O) + (2 × 1.008g/mol H) = 74.092 g/mol Ca (OH)2

A monoprotic weak acid, HA , dissociates in water according to the reaction HA(aq)+H2O(l)↽−−⇀H3O+(aq)+A−(aq) The equilibrium concentrations of the reactants and products are [HA]=0.260 M , [H3O+]=4.00×10−4 M , and [A−]=4.00×10−4 M . Calculate the Ka value for the acid HA.
Answer:
Ka = 6.15x10⁻⁷
Explanation:
Ka is defined as dissociation constant in the equilibrium of a weak acid with water. The general reaction is:
HA(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇆ H₃O⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq)
And Ka is defined as the ratio between molar concentrations in equilibrium of products over reactants as follows:
Ka = [H₃O⁺] [A⁻] / [HA]
You don't take water in the equilibrium beacuse is a pure liquid
Replacing with the concentrations of the problem:
Ka = [H₃O⁺] [A⁻] / [HA]
Ka = [4.00x10⁻⁴] [4.00x10⁻⁴] / [0.260]
Ka = 6.15x10⁻⁷

Acetonitrile (CH3CN) is an important industrial chemical. Among other things, it is used to make plastic moldings, which have multiple uses, from car parts to Lego bricks. Which one of the following statements about acetonitrile is not correct?a. Acetonitrile has 16 valence electrons in its Lewis structure. b. Acetonitrile has one triple bond. c. Acetonitrile has one pair of nonbonding electrons. d. All atoms satisfy the octet rule in acetonitrile. e. One carbon atom and the nitrogen atom have nonzero formal charges.
Answer:
One carbon atom and the nitrogen atom have nonzero formal charges.
Explanation:
The compound Acetonitrile has sixteen valence electrons as is easily San from its structure. It contains a carbon nitrogen triple bond with a lone pair of electrons on nitrogen. All atoms satisfy the octet rule and there is no hyper valent atom in the molecule.
The formal charge an carbon and nitrogen is calculated as follows;
No. of valence electron on atom - [non bonded electrons + no. of bonds]
Therefore, for carbon and nitrogen, we have;
formal charge on carbon = 4 - (0 + 4) = 0
formal charge on nitrogen = 5 - (2 + 3) = 0
Hence carbon and nitrogen both possess zero formal charges.

Cesium-137 is part of the nuclear waste produced by uranium-235 fission. The half-life of cesium-137 is 30.2 years. How much time is required for the activity of a sample of cesium-137 to fall to 20.0 percent of its original value?
Answer:
There are required 70.1 years for the activity of a sample of cesium-137 to fall to 20.0 percent of its original value
Explanation:
The radioactive decay follows always first-order kinetics where its general law is:
Ln[A] = -Kt + ln[A]₀
Where [A] is actual concentration of the atom, k is rate constant, t is time and [A]₀ is initial concentration.
We can find rate constant from half-life as follows:
Rate constant:
t(1/2) = ln 2 / K
As half-life of Cesium-137 is 30.2 years:
30.2 years = ln 2 / K
K = 0.02295 years⁻¹
Replacing this result and with the given data of the problem:
Ln[A] = -Kt + ln[A]₀
Ln[A] = -0.02295 years⁻¹* t + ln[A]₀
Ln ([A] / [A₀]) = -0.02295 years⁻¹* t
As you want time when [A] is 20% of [A]₀, [A] / [A]₀ = 0.2:
Ln (0.2) = -0.02295 years⁻¹* t
70.1 years = t
There are required 70.1 years for the activity of a sample of cesium-137 to fall to 20.0 percent of its original value2) What is the concentration (M) of CH3OH in a solution prepared by dissolving 11.7 g of CH3OH in sufficient water to give exactly 230 mL of solution?
Using only sodium carbonate, Na2CO3, sodium bicarbonate, NaHCO3, and distilled water determine how you could prepare 50.0 mL of a 0.20 M solution that is buffered to a pH of 10.3. The total molarity of the ions should be 0.20 M. The Ka of the hydrogen carbonate ion, HCO3 - , is 4.7 x 10-11 .
Answer:
Weight 0.4326 g of sodium bicarbonate and 0.5141 g of sodium carbonate, dissolve it in distilled water and then bring the solution to a final volume of 50.0 mL using distilled water.
Explanation:
The pH of a buffered solution can be calculated using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:
[tex] pH = pKa + log(\frac{[Na_{2}CO_{3}]}{[NaHCO_{3}]}) [/tex]
We have that pH = 10.3 and the Ka is 4.7x10⁻¹¹, so:
[tex] 10.3 = -log(4.7 \cdot 10^{-11}) + log(\frac{[Na_{2}CO_{3}]}{[NaHCO_{3}]}) [/tex]
[tex] \frac{[Na_{2}CO_{3}]}{[NaHCO_{3}]} = 0.94 [/tex] (1)
Also, we know that:
[tex] [Na_{2}CO_{3}] + [NaHCO_{3}] = 0.20 M [/tex] (2)
From equation (2) we have:
[tex] [Na_{2}CO_{3}] = 0.20 - [NaHCO_{3}] [/tex] (3)
By entering (3) into (1):
[tex] \frac{0.20 - [NaHCO_{3}]}{[NaHCO_{3}]} = 0.94 [/tex]
[tex] 0.94*[NaHCO_{3}] + [NaHCO_{3}] = 0.20 [/tex]
[tex] [NaHCO_{3}] = 0.103 M [/tex]
Hence, the [Na_{2}CO_{3}] is:
[tex] [Na_{2}CO_{3}] = 0.20 - [NaHCO_{3}] = 0.20 M - 0.103 M = 0.097 M [/tex]
Now, having the concentrations and knowing the volume of the buffer solution we can find the mass of the sodium carbonate and the sodium bicarbonate, as follows:
[tex]m_{Na_{2}CO_{3}} = C*V*M = 0.097 mol/L*0.050 L*105.99 g/mol = 0.5141 g[/tex]
[tex]m_{NaHCO_{3}} = C*V*M = 0.103 mol/L*0.050 L*84.007 g/mol = 0.4326 g[/tex]
Therefore, to prepare 50.0 mL of a 0.20 M solution that is buffered to a pH of 10.3 we need to weight 0.4326 g of sodium bicarbonate and 0.5141 g of sodium carbonate, dissolve it in distilled water and then bring the solution to a final volume of 50.0 mL using distilled water.
I hope it helps you!

The literature value for the Ksp of Ca(OH)2 at 25 °C is 4.68E−6. Imagine you ran the experiment and got a calculated value for Ksp which was too high. Select all of the possible circumstances which would cause this result.
A. The HCl was more concentrated than the labeled molarity (0.0500 M).
B. The Ca[OH]2 solution may have been supersaturated.
C. The HCl was less concentrated than the labeled molarity (0.0500 M).
D. The Ca[OH]2 solution may have been unsaturated.
E. The titration flask may have not been clean and had a residue of a basic solution.
F. The titration flask may have not been clean and had a residue of an acidic solution.
Answer:
D. The Ca[OH]2 solution may have been unsaturated
Explanation:
The solubility product constant Ksp of any given chemical compound is a term used to describe the equilibrium between a solid and the ions it contains solution. The value of the Ksp indicates the extent to which any compound can dissociate into ions in water. A higher the Ksp, implies more greater solubility of the compound in water.
If the Ksp is more than the value in literature, this false value must have arisen from the fact that the solution was unsaturated hence it appears to be more soluble than it should normally be when saturated.
1. Explain what the police siren sounds like to Jane:
2. Explain what the police siren sounds like to John:
3. Explain why the police siren sounds different between Jane and John:
Answer:
1. the siren has a lower pitch to Jane
2. the siren has a higher pitch to John
3. sound different due to moving away from Jane making the sound wave lengths longer and moving toward John making the wave lengths shorter
Explanation:
The Doppler effect expresses that sound is comparative with the spectator or observer. This is demonstrated valid by the model given with Jane and John. To one individual it could sound low and to someone else it could sound high, in light of where they are tuning in from. To John, the police alarm playing is a higher pitch. Be that as it may, to Jane this equivalent alarm is a totally extraordinary pitch and is heard lower than in comparison to the john.
This is a prime case of the Doppler Effect. They sound distinctive on the grounds that the sound is moving far from Jane making the sound frequencies longer and it is advancing toward John making the frequencies shorter. This impacts how the sound is heard by the human ear.
