There are some significant differences between DNA and RNA which may help you to identify which one is which.

For example, DNA does not have an oxygen on it's 2' carbon in the deoxyribose sugar whereas RNA does.

Furthermore, if you are able to see the organic bases, this may help you also. DNA has the bases ATCG. In RNA however, the T (thymine) is replaced with U (uracil) and so the bases in an RNA strand are AUCG.

In simple words, if there is an oxygen on the 2nd carbon of the sugar ---> RNA

If there is a U base ---> RNA.

How many repeating units are in a polymer?

The number of repeating units in a polymer depend on the size and structure of the polymer chain. The repeating unit is the smallest unit that is repeated throughout the polymer chain. For example, in a polymer with a molecular weight of 1000 g/mol and a repeating unit of 100 g/mol, there would be 10 repeating units in the polymer chain.

How can you tell that hydrogen bonds are weaker than covalent bonds in silly putty?

Hydrogen bonds are weaker than covalent bonds because they are formed between a hydrogen atom and a highly electronegative atom like oxygen or nitrogen. In silly putty, the covalent bonds within the polymer chains provide strength and elasticity, while the hydrogen bonds between the chains are weaker and can be easily broken, allowing the putty to flow and stretch.
