Chapter 23, Problem 45P

a. Explain why the alkyl halide shown here reacts much more rapidly with guanine than does a primary alkyl halide (such as pentyl chloride).

Chapter 23, Problem 45P, a. Explain why the alkyl halide shown here reacts much more rapidly with guanine than does a primary

b. The alkyl halide can react with two guanines, each in a different DNA chain, thereby cross-linking the chains. Propose a mechanism for the cross-linking reaction.

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. macrostate 1 macrostate 2 macrostate 3 ε/k (K) Populations Populations Populations 300 5 3 4 200 7 9 8 100 15 17 16 0 33 31 32 DATO: k = 1,38×10-23 J K-1
