Question
Chapter 21, Problem 21.115AQAP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
RNA: The full form of RNA is ribonucleic acid. It consists of ribose in its pentose ring and is found in the cytoplasm of the cell. It is mainly involved in transferring the genetic code for protein synthesis
DNA: The full form of DNA is deoxyribonucleic acid which consists of deoxyribose in its pentose ring and is found mostly in the nucleus of cell. It stores mainly genetic information.
Concept introduction:
DNA and RNA are made of monomers called
Both have three nitrogenous bases: Adenine, cytosine and guanine.
To determine: The similarity between the primary structure of RNA and DNA

In the solid state, oxalic acid occurs as
a dihydrate with the formula H2C2O4
C+2H2O. Use this formula to
calculate the formula weight of oxalic
acid. Use the calculated formula
weight and the number of moles
(0.00504mol)
of oxalic acid in each titrated
unknown sample recorded in Table
6.4 to calculate the number of grams
of pure oxalic acid dihydrate
contained in each titrated unknown
sample.

Consider a pair of elements with 2p and 4p valence orbitals (e.g., N and Se). Draw their
(2p and 4p AO's) radial probability plots, and sketch their angular profiles. Then, consider these
orbitals from the two atoms forming a homonuclear л-bond. Which element would have a
stronger bond, and why?
