How does the phosphate buffer system help in maintaining the pH of our body?
The phosphate buffer system consists of two ions: dihydrogen phosphate ions and hydrogen phosphate ions. When the number of hydrogen ions in a body's bloodstream increases (pH drops), hydrogen phosphate ions accept hydrogen ions in order to maintain the equilibrium between the concentration of hydrogen and hydroxide ions within the bloodstream. When the number of hydrogen ions in the bloodstream decreases (pH increases), the resulting dihydrogen phosphate ions release hydrogen ions in order to increase the number of hydrogen ions in the blood.
What is the nature of the chemical bond that joins the sugar of one nucleotide to the phosphate group of the next nucleotide?
C5 is bound to that nucleotides own phophate group. C3 is bound to the phosphate group of the nucleotide before it by a covalant link creating a srong "backbone"
What makes up the middle of DNA double helix?
The sides of the DNA strand is made up of a sugar phosphate backbone. The sugar in DNA is deoxyribose (in RNA it is ribose) and in the nucleotide monomer it is attached to a phosphate group on the 5' carbon of the sugar. The monomers are attached together by the biochemical reaction of dehydration synthesis to form a nucleic acid chain of many millions of nucleotides by attaching the phosphate group of one nucleotide to the 3' carbon of the deoxyribose of another carbon.

What type of bond connects to the backbone of a DNA molecule?
The nucleotides are linked by peptide bonds - covalent bonds between the carbon in the carboxyl group and the nitrogen in the amino group. The double helix is formed by hydrogen bonds between the hydrogens and oxygens of two strands of nucleotides.
How are the nitrogen bases held together in the center of the DNA molecule?
The nitrogen bases bond A-T and C-G via hydrogen bonds. The bases are held together in the string by a backbone of alternating phosphate and sugar molecules.
What are the sides of DNA ladder made out of?
The Sides of this ladder equate to the Dna's Sugar-Phosphate Backbone; the Rungs of this ladder equate to the Hydrogen-bonding that takes place between base pairs.
Which macromolecule has a sugar-phosphate backbone?
Nucleic acids DNA and RNADNA has deoxyribose and phosphate forming the backbone and an attached nitrogenous base, These three components form a nucleotide.RNA has ribose sugar, phosphate and nitrogenous bases. The bonds holding the macromolecule together are covalent bonds within the nucleotides and hydrogen bonds holding the double strands of the DNA molecule.
What is the name for HPO42?
HPO4 does not exist. HPO42- would be the dibasic form of phosphoric acid and be the hydrogen phosphate ion. H3PO4 also exists and is phophoric acid. So if two moles of NaOH were reacted with phosphoric acid 2Na+ HPO42- would be formed disodium hydrogen phosphate.
Monoammonium phosphate Diammonium hydrogen phosphate among these which is more soluble in water?
diammonium hydrogen phosphate
What is the correct name for LiHPO4?
Lithium Hydrogen Phosphate or Lithium biphosphate
Hydrogen phosphate formula?
The formula for hydrogen phosphate is HPO4. I like chocolate.
What is the formula for the hydrogen phosphate ion?
The formula for hydrogen phosphate ion is: H2PO4−
What is the formula for lithium hydrogen phosphate.?
The formula for lithium hydrogen phosphate is Li2HPO4.
What are in DNA?
DNA or Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid is a double stranded compound made up of a deoxyribose (sugar-phosphate) backbone with nucleotide bases bonded together with hydrogen bonds.
Do covalent bonds join DNA sugar phosphate backbones?
Yes, the sugar and phosphate that make up the DNA backbone are joined together with covalent bonds. These bonds are stronger than the hydrogen bonds which join the bases from different strands together.
What is the chemical name for Na2HPO4?
The correct answer is sodium monohydrogen phosphate.
What is the formula for the compound made from calcium and mono hydrogen phosphate ions?
Calcium hydrogen phosphate :) Ca2HPO4
