Consider Molecule X, which is found in all living cells. This single-strand nucleic acid folds into a compact shape and forms a large complex with about 80
proteins. This complex is responsible for synthesizing new proteins in a living cell.
What is the name of X? Your answer should be one word, or a short two- or three-word phrase. Spelling counts.
Note: if there is more than one possible answer, separate each answer with a comma.

information was given, but inside the bottle were some white crystals.
The student took the bottle to a chemistry laboratory, where she analyzed the
crystals with the help of the laboratory staff. C₁2H₁6O reacted with Br₂ in CCl4
adding one mole of Br, and forming C₁₂H₁OB2₂.
When a sample of C₁₂H₂O was reacted with O3 followed by Zn/H₂O, two
different samples, J and K, were obtained. Compound J had a molecular formula
of C.HgO₂, and its NMR is shown below.
Compound K had a molecular formula of C₂H₂O, and it could be oxidized to
compound L, with a molecular formula of C₂H₂O₂. The IR spectrum of L showed
a very wide, strong band centred around 3000 cm*¹. The NMR spectrum of L
showed only two different absorptions: a doublet (6H) at 0.9 ppm and a septet
(1H) at 3.6 ppm. There was also a singlet (1H) off the scale at 11.8 ppm.

Thallium leads to hair loss. It also replaces potassium in important enzymes in the brain, muscles and skin. It takes 8.0 x 102 mg of thallium ion to kill an average adult. It took a bit of investigating to figure out that the agent was actually poisoned by polonium, a radioactive element, harmful only if it goes into the body. The radioactivity emitted by polonium, alpha particles, can be stopped by skin; but, if ingested, it gets into the blood stream, travels to organs and does lots of damage. The maximum safe body amount of polonium is 7 pg (picograms!) The agent was apparently poisoned with about 10 micrograms. To provide the minimum amount of thallium to kill the average adult, how many mL of 0.45 M solution of thallium(I) sulfate needs to be ingested?…arrow_forward

Normal BIU ×=| ||† X₂|X²|→ 三: = fxe Txarrow_forwardThere are quite a few pieces of information we can glean from a chemical formula. The first is the mass of that formula. In looking at the periodic table, we know that each element has its own mass. When we combine that information with how we interpret how many of each element there is in the formula that we just went over, we can calculate the mass of the compound. Using glucose as an example: C6H12O6 tells us that glucose has 6 carbons, 12 hydrogens and 6 oxygens. On the periodic table, carbon has a mass of 12 g, hydrogen has a mass of 1 g, and oxygen has a mass of 16 g (I've rounded for ease. There will be times you use the entire mass provided on the table and times you won't -you'll know when). C = 6 x 12g = 72g H = 12 X 1g = 12 g O = 6 X 16g = 96g Add these values together and you get 180 g so glucose has a mass of 180 g. Calculate the mass of H2SO4.arrow_forward
