Codons are groups of three nucleotides on the mRNA strand. Codons are bound to the ribosomes where they are met by tRNA's anticodons. Together, the codons and anticodons form amino acids which bind together via peptide bonds and form amino acid chains known as polypeptides or proteins. These proteins are released into the cell to perform their desired functions.

What type of intermolecular forces would you expect to find in a liquid sample of HBr?

In a liquid sample of HBr, you would expect to find predominantly dipole-dipole interactions and some hydrogen bonding. Hydrogen bonding occurs between the hydrogen atom of one molecule and the lone pair of electrons on the bromine atom of another molecule in HBr.

What molecule do you find triplets and codons?

In genetics, triplets refer to a sequence of three nucleotides on DNA or mRNA that code for a specific amino acid. These triplets are known as codons, and they are recognized by the tRNA during protein synthesis to bring the corresponding amino acid to the ribosome.

How many different masses of the Cl2 molecule would you expect to find in a sample of chlorine gas?

In a sample of chlorine gas, you would expect to find only one mass for the Cl2 molecule, which is 70.906 g/mol. Chlorine gas consists of molecules that are all made up of two chlorine atoms linked together, so they all have the same molecular mass.

On what molecule would you find the codon?

A codon is a set of three nucleotides that specifies which amino acid will be added to the growing protein during translationl. Since a codon is found in DNA and RNA, the NUCLEOTIDE BASESare the molecules that make up codons
