Question
Chapter 12, Problem 12.82QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The ratio of two separate strands to hydrogen-bonded double helix in solution at 300 K has to be calculated.
Concept Introduction:
- DNA is a double-stranded helical structure made of purine and pyrimidine bases which are linked by hydrogen bonds. Each separate strand of DNA consists of complementary base pair is known as complementary DNA or cDNA.
- Thymine and Cytosine are Pyrimidine bases whereas Adenine and Guanine are Purine bases.
- In DNA, Purine bases pair with Pyrimidine bases that Cytosine and Guanine are paired and adenine and thymine are paired.
- Cytosine and Guanine are linked by three Hydrogen bonds whereas Adenine and Thymine are linked by two Hydrogen bonds.

Sodium (Na) is famous for its spectrum being dominated by two yellow emission lines at 589.0 and 589.6 nm, respectively. These lines result from electrons relaxing to the 3s subshell. a. What is the photon energy (in J) for one of these emission lines? Show your work. b. To what electronic transition in hydrogen is this photon energy closest to? Justify your answer-you shouldn't need to do numerical calculations. c. Consider the 3s subshell energy for Na - use 0 eV as the reference point for n=∞.
