Question
Chapter 12, Problem 9E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Guanine and Cytosine bases should be arranged to give the maximum number of Hydrogen bonds.
Concept introduction:
DNA consist of four types of bases. Adenine (abbreviated A), Cytosine (C), Guanine (G), and Thymine (T).Adenine and Guanines are called purines. These compounds are heterocyclic fused, five and six membered compounds. Cytosine and Thymine caller pyrimidine and those are typically single rings with six membered compounds.Based on the structure of the bases, cytosine can form three hydrogen bonds with Guanine and adenine can form two hydrogen bonds with thymine.

Discuss the different types of intermolecular forces that exist between
molecules. Give an example of how intermolecular forces can affect the thermodynamic
properties of fluids. Be specific and name the chemical compounds.
Draw the lewis structure of methane and define all the intermolecular forces present in the molecule.
(a) Consider a substance where the intermolecular forces hold the molecules in fixed rigid positions. What is the process called when enough heat has been added to the substance so that the molecules begin to flow? (b) Consider a substance where the intermolecular forces hold the molecules in close contact with each other, but the molecules can flow. What is the process called when enough heat has been added to the substance so that the molecules escape each other? (c) Consider a substance where the intermolecular forces hold the molecules in fixed rigid positions. What is the process called when enough heat has been added to the substance so that the molecules can escape each other?
