Question
Chapter 20.6, Problem 20.7Q
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The relation between codon and anticodon has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
A set of three nucleotides that serves as a unique code for each of the amino acids is termed as a codon. Nirenberg and H.J. Matthaei discovered in 1961 that translation of a poly uracil RNA sequence that had AAA as anticodon resulted in the synthesis of amino acid phenylalanine. Thus it was inferred that the triplet UUU is present as the codon on the messenger RNA and would code for amino acid phenylalanine.

The reaction for obtaining NO2 from NO and O2 has the rate equation: v = k[NO]2[O2]. Indicate which of the following options is correct.(A). This rate equation is inconsistent with the reaction consisting of a single trimolecular step.(B). Since the overall order is 3, the reaction must necessarily have some trimolecular step in its mechanism.(C). A two-step mechanism: 1) NO + NO ⇄ N2O2 (fast); 2) N2O2 + O2 → NO2 + NO2 (slow).(D). The mechanism must necessarily consist of three unimolecular elementary steps with very similar rate constants.
a. What is the eluent used in the column chromatography here (a “silica plug filtration” is essentially a very short column)?
b. The spectroscopy of compound 5b is described in the second half of this excerpt, including 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR (which you will learn about in CHEM 2412L), MS (which you will learn about later in CHEM 2411L) and IR. One of the IR signals is at 3530 cm-1. What functional group does this indicate might be present in compound 5b?
Steps and explanations. Also provide, if possible, ways to adress this kind of problems in general.

The molecular weight of the NH3 decomposition reaction is 2 since two NH3 molecules must collide.(C).
