Properties of Different Bonds An ionic compound forms from a nonmetal and metal element. A covalent compound is formed by two non metal elements. A metallic compound is formed by two metal elements. Metallic compounds have generally high melting points‚ are loose and flexible with their electrons‚ conduct electricity well‚ and have low solubility in water. Ionic compounds are generally crystals‚ have a high melting point‚ and usually have high solubility in water and conduct electricity well when

Question 1 Electromagnetic radiation behaves both as particles (called photons) and as waves. Wavelength () and frequency () are related according to the equation where is the speed of light (). The energy ( in joules) contained in one quantum of electromagnetic radiation is described by the equation where is Planck’s constant (). Note that frequency has units of inverse seconds ()‚ which are more commonly expressed as hertz (). Part A A microwave oven operates at 2.40 . What is the wavelength

Sarah Khan Bivins-5th April 20th‚ 2013 Protein Synthesis Every day‚ you take in an abundance of different biomolecules; one of them being proteins. Have you ever wondered how proteins are made? They don’t just grow from a tree or fall from the sky‚ they are made through a process called protein synthesis. Protein synthesis is broken up in two two steps: transcription and translation. Transcription starts inside the nucleus when the DNA is unzipped by helicase. Following that‚ the mRNA nucleotides

Sucrose Synthesis by D. DeWitt‚ PhD v1.5 11/10/12 Introduction | Condensation Reaction | Plant Synthesis | A. Introduction Although it might seem straight forward‚ the synthesis of sucrose‚ either as a simple condensation reaction (a.k.a. dehydration synthesis)‚ or what actually happens in plants is complicated. Before we explore sucrose’s creation‚ let’s take a look at its structure. In Figure 1‚ the space-filling model is pretty but rather useless at this point in our journey. We

Synthesis of Aspirin Learning Goals 1. To synthesize aspirin from salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. 2. To purify the crude product by Recrystallization. Introduction Most drugs are chemical compounds which are described as "organic compounds" because they are comprised primarily of the elements carbon‚ hydrogen and oxygen. The present experiment will be the synthesis of a familiar organic compound called aspirin. The common chemical name is acetylsalicylic acid. Aspirin‚ the

U‚ and C for the nucleotides guanine‚ adenine‚ uracil and cytosine) that directs synthesis of specific proteins‚ while many viruses encode their genetic information using an RNA genome. Some RNA molecules play an active role within cells by catalyzing biological reactions‚ controlling gene expression‚ or sensing and communicating responses to cellular signals. One of these active processes is protein synthesis‚ a universal function whereby mRNA molecules direct the assembly of proteins on ribosomes
