Chemistry Questions

Silicon carbide is used in Cutting very hard substances.

Oxygen is the final electron acceptor of cellular respiration.

Calculation of molar mass of HNO3:

Atomic masses of H, N, O are 1, 14, 16 respectively

Now the molar mass of HNO3 is

HNO3 = 1X1 + 1X14 + 3X16

= 1 + 14 + 48

= 63 g/mol or amu.

Molecular compounds are those with covalent bonds between the elements and those elements are typically non metals.

Here in the given options, Ar is an element. NaI has an ionic bond. Hence, N2O4 has a covalent bond between the two non metals and is a molecular compound.

Mercury and Bromine both will be in liquid state at room temperature. But mercury is metal. Hence, bromine is the only non metal which is in liquid state at room temperature.

Nucleic acids are polymers of individual nucleotide monomers.

Each nucleotide is composed of three parts:

a 5-carbon sugar,

a phosphate group, and

a nitrogenous base.
