Question
Chapter 28, Problem 28.23P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The one of more stable Base pair A-T or G-C in terms of hydrogen bonding has to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
The hydrogen bonding is said to be the bond formed by the electrostatic forces between the hydrogen (proton) of one molecule and the electronegative atom of another molecule. The bond is formed by weaker forces of attraction and it holds the two molecules together.
