Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The type of interactive forces which should be overcome for sublimation of
Concept Introduction:
The set of repulsive and attractive force between molecules that result from the polarity between neighboring molecules is represented as intermolecular force. There are four types of intermolecular forces:
- Hydrogen bonding.
- London dispersion force.
- Ion – dipole force.
- Dipole – Dipole force.
(b)
Interpretation:
The type of interactive forces which should be overcome for melting of

- Although RNA is single-stranded, the strand sometimes folds back on itself to give a complementary portion. What would be the complementary portion of the RNA fragment having the bases uracil-cytosine-guanine? A virus is a particle that contains DNA or RNA that is surrounded by a coat of protein that can replicate only in a host cell. The influencza virus shown in this electron microscope image is an RNA virus.arrow_forwardA circular double-stranded DNA molecule contains 4200 base pairs. In solu- tion the molecule is in a B-form helix, with about 10.5 base pairs per turn. The DNA circle has 12 superhelical turns. What is its superhelix density o?arrow_forwardName each alkene and specify its configuration by the E,Z system. (Be sure to indicate double bond stereochemistry using (E)/(Z) notation. It is not necessary to use italics in writing compound names.)arrow_forward
