Chapter 13.3, Problem 13.8YT

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

From the given data, the length in centimeters (cm) of human chromosome 11 has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

Chromosomes:

The double helix structures of copied DNAs get coiled to save space. Such coiled forms of DNA organize and protect the genetic information. This complete set of genetic information is packaged into chromosomes which are rod-shaped. So, a compact package of coiled DNAs is known chromosome which lies in the nucleus of cells.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

From the given data, the factor by which the DNA is condensed further has to be found.

Concept Introduction:

DNA:

DNA is a self-replicating genetic material that is present in all living organisms. It carries genetic information from one generation to the several successive generations which brings several physical traits in an individual as a sign of resemblance from his/her parents and ancestors. Those traits are the uniqueness to the individual.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A reason for why the level of compaction of DNA in chromosome as discussed in sub-part (b) is necessary has to be suggested.

-Page: 8 nsition metal ions have high-spin aqua complexes except one: [Co(HO)₁]". What is the d-configuration, oxidation state of the metal in [Co(H:O))"? Name and draw the geometry of [Co(H2O)]? b) Draw energy diagrams showing the splitting of the five d orbitals of Co for the two possible electron configurations of [Co(H2O)]: Knowing that A = 16 750 cm and Пl. = 21 000 cm, calculate the configuration energy (.e., balance or ligand-field stabilization energy and pairing energy) for both low spin and high spin configurations of [Co(H2O)]. Which configuration seems more stable at this point of the analysis? (Note that 349.76 cm = 1 kJ/mol) Exchange energy (IT) was not taken into account in part (d), but it plays a role. Assuming exchange an occur within t29 and within eg (but not between tz, and ea), how many exchanges are possible in the low in configuration vs in the high spin configuration? What can you say about the importance of exchange energy 07
