What do you understand by The two strands of DNA are complementary to each other ? Explain .

Answer»

Solution :Structure of DNA : To understand the structure of DNA , we should known the charagaff's rule , which states that :
1. Base composition on DNA for a PARTICULAR organism is constant throughout all the somatic cells
2. Base composition always varies from one organism to another and is expressed by the dissymmetry ratio , `(A+T)/(G+C)`
3. Organisms closely related to ech other often have similar base composition and hence have closed values for their dissymmetry ratio.
4. In a given organism the amount of adenine is always equal to the amount of thymine (A=T) and amount of guanine is equal to amount of cytosine (G=C).
5. In a given organism the TOTAL amount of purine bases are always equal to total numberof pyrimidine bases (i.e.,) (A+G=T+C).
M. wilkins found that within the crystal there is a repeat DISTANCE of 3.4 nm and there are ten subunits per turn.
watson - Crick model for DNA : From the above observations watson and crick constructed a model for DNA. This model consists of two right handed polynucleotide chains that are complimentary and coiled about the same axis to form double - helix .Some specific base pairs can be SPATIALLY accommodated and these are A-T and G-C pairs. The bases are closely ASSOCIATED with each other by hydrogen bonding. The helix has diameter of about 2.0 nm and contains 10 nucleotide pairs in each turn of helix as shown above:

What are the limitations of Ellingham diagram?

Answer»

Solution :The limitations are listed as under :
1. The graph SIMPLY indicates whether a reaction is possible or not because it is based on thermodynamic CONCEPTS. It does not say anything about the kinetics of the reduction process.
2. The interpretation of `triangleG` is based on `K[triangleG= - RT ln K]`. Thus it is presumed that the reactants and products are in equilibrium.
`M_(x)O+A_("red") harr xM+AO_("ox")`
This is not ALWAYS true because the reactant/product may be solid. However, it explains how the reactions are sluggish when every species is in solid state and smooth when the ore melts down.
It is interesting to note here that `triangleH" and "triangleS` values for any rection remain nearly constant even on varying temperatures.

Which of the following statements about the composition of the vapour over an ideal 1:1 molar mixture of benzene and toluene is correct at 25^(@)C (Given vapour pressure data at 25^(@)C, benzene = "12.8 kPa, toluene = 3.85 kPa")

Answer»

The vapour will contain equal amounts of benzene and toluene
Not ENOUGH INFORMATION is given to make a prediction
The vapour will contain a higher PERCENTAGE of benzene
The vapour will contain a higher percentage of toluene

Solution :`P_("Benzene")=x_("Benzene")xxP_("Benzene")^(@)`
`P_("Toluene")=x_("Toluene")xxP_("Toluene")^(@)`
For an ideal `1:1` mixture of benzene and toluene
`x_("Benzene")=(1)/(2),x_("Toluene")=(1)/(2)`
`P_("Benzene")=(1)/(2)xxP_("Benzene")^(@)=(1)/(2)xx12.8"k PA = 6.4 k Pa"`
`P_("Toluene")=(1)/(2)xxP_("Toluene")^(@)=(1)/(2)xx3.85" k Pa = 1.925 k Pa"`
Thus, the vapour will contain higher percentage of benzene as the partial vapour pressure of benzene is higher than that of toluene.

The solubility product of a sparingly soluble salt AB at room temperature is 1.21xx10^(-6)M^(2). Its molar solubility is :

Answer»

`1.21xx10^(-6)M`
`1.1xx10^(-4)M`
`1.1xx10^(-3)M`
