Textbook Question
Chapter 13.2, Problem 13.1YT
Skill Building Small, but Important Differences
The size or number of rings is not the only difference between the nitrogen-containing bases. Let’s examine each of the four bases more closely.
- a. Draw Lewis structures for each of the four bases. Be sure to show the lone pairs of electrons on the nitrogen and oxygen atoms.
- b. Identify the H atoms that could form hydrogen bonds with water or other
nucleic acids. - c. Now identify the other (non-hydrogen) atoms that could participate in hydrogen bonding.
Hint: Revisit Section 8.3 for information on hydrogen bonds.
