Chapter 16, Problem 63E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The complement for each of the bases is to be given.

Concept Introduction:

DNA consists of two complementary strands of nucleic acid.

The complementary nature of the individual base units is the reason behind DNA’s ability to self-replicate.

Each of the four bases, A, T, C, and G, has a complementary partner with which it forms hydrogen bonds.

Each base pairs only with its complementary partner.

Adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T) and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G).

Vibrational contributions to internal energy and heat capacity1) are temperature independent2) are temperature dependent
The approximation of calculating the partition function by integration instead of the summation of all the energy terms can only be done if the separation of the energy levels is much smaller than the product kT. Explain why.
Explain the meaning of: the electron partition function is equal to the degeneracy of the ground state.
