Question
Chapter 23, Problem 23.91P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The characteristics of RNA which makes it to have catalytic activity are to be predicted and the reason for DNA to have less catalytic activity is to be stated.
Concept Introduction:
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a source of genetic information and is used in transcription and translation. The hydroxyl group is absent on the second carbon atom of deoxyribose sugar of DNA. However, in RNA, hydroxyl group is present on the second carbon atom.

Laser. Indicate the relationship between metastable state and stimulated emission.
The table includes macrostates characterized by 4 energy levels (&) that are
equally spaced but with different degrees of occupation.
a) Calculate the energy of all the macrostates (in joules). See if they all have
the same energy and number of particles.
b) Calculate the macrostate that is most likely to exist. For this macrostate,
show that the population of the levels is consistent with the Boltzmann
distribution.
