The colonies of recombinant bacteria appear white in contrast to blue colonies of non-recombinant bacteria because ofA. lnsertional inactivation of alphagalac- tosidase in recombinant bacteriaB. Inactivation of glycosidase enzyme in recombinant bacteriaC. Non-recombinant bacteria containing beta- galactosidaseD. insertional inactivation of alphagalac- tosidase in non-recombinant bacteria

Answer» Correct Answer - 3
In insertional inactivation a recombinant DNA is inserted within the coding sequence of enzyme J3 - galactosidase. If the plasmid in the bacteriadoes not have the insert (i.e., non - recombinants) then the chromogenic substrate gives blue coloured colonies. Presence of the insert (i.e., recombinants) leads to inactivation of the J3-galactosidase enzyme thus the colonies do not produce any colour.
Option ( l) is wrong, it should be `beta` galactosidase
Option (2) is wrong, it should be galactosidase instead of glycosidase
Option (3) is correct, as the non- recombinants have the `beta` galactosidase enzymes intact.
Option ( 4) is wrong it should be "Insertional inactivation of B galactosidase of recombinant bacteria".

Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow : Some reactions such as ionic reactions occur very fast, for example, precipitation of silver chloride occurs instantaneously by mixing of aqueous solutions of silver nitrate and sodium chloride. On the other hand, some reactions are very slow, for example, rusting of itin in the presence of air and moisture. Also there are reactions like inversion of care matter and hydrolysis of starch, which proceed with a moderate speed. Can you think of mere examples from each category ?You must be knowing that speed of an automobile is expressed in ferms of change in the position or distance covered by it in a certain period of time. Similarly. the speed of a reaction or the rate of a reaction can be defined as the change in concentration of a reactrant or product in unit time. To be more specific, it can be expressed in terms of (i) the rate of decrease in concentration of any one of the reactants, or (ii) the rate of increase in concentration of any one of the products. Q-1 Give two examples of very fast reactions other than the one given in the paragraph.Q-2 Give two examples of very slow reactions other than the one given in the paragraph.Q-3 How do we derive the equation for instantaneous rate?Q-4 How do we express the rate of reactions where stoichiometric coefficients of reactants or products are not equal to 1 ?                                       Or In the reaction of hydrolysis of butyl chloride represented by \[ C _{4} H _{4} Cl + H _{2} O \longrightarrow C _{4} H _{9} OH + HCl \text {, } \] the concentration of butyl chloride at time \( 50 s \) and \( 100 s \) are \( 0.0505 \) and \( 0.5820 \) mol \( L ^{-1} \) respectively. Calculate the average velocity for this interval.

Answer»

1. Generally all ionic reactions are very fast.

ex - (1) Neutralization reaction

HCL + NaOH \(\xrightarrow{Very\,fast}\) NaCL + H2O

2. Pricipitation reaction-

BaCl2 + H2SO4 → BaSO4\(\downarrow\) + 2HCl

2. (i) Weathering of rocks

(ii) Formation of Coal

3. The instantaneous rate of reaction is the sloped line(tangent to the curve) at any time 't' of conc of production Vs time graph.

it is represent by

instantaneous rate = \(\frac{\Delta(Product\,constration)}{Delta (time)}\)

4. Let 2A →B a reaction.

then rate of reaction  = \(-\frac12\frac{d[A]}{dt}=\frac{+d[B]}{dt}\)

Calculate the volume of occupied by 80g of CO2 at STP

Answer»

44g(1 mole) of CO2 at stp has volume = 22.4l

80g has volume= (22.4/44)x80=40.72

13885.

Calculate the volume occupied by 4.4 g of CO2 at STP?

Answer»

1 mole CO2 = 44 g 

4.4 CO2 = 0.1 mole CO2 

Volume occupied by 1 mol CO2 at STP = 22.4 L 

∴ Volume occupied 0.1 mol CO2 at STP = 0.1 × 22.4 L 

= 2.24 L

13886.

1. One mole of an ideal gas occupies 22.4 L at STP (a) Calculate the mass of 11.2 L of oxygen gas at STP. (b) Calculate the number of atoms present in the above sample. 2. 21 g of nitrogen gas is mixed with 5 g of hydrogen gas to yield ammonia according to the equation. N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3 Calculate the maximum amount of ammonia that can be formed.

Answer»

1. (a) Mass of 22.4 L oxygen at STP = 32 g 

∴ Mass of 11.2 L oxygen at STP = 16 g 

(b) No. of atoms present in 16 g of O2 \(\frac{6.02\times10^{23}}{2}\) ×2 = 6.02 × 1023 atoms 

2. N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3 

1 mole N2 + 3 mole H2 → 2moles NH3 

1 mole N2 requires 3 mol H2 

i.e., 28g N2 requires 6 g H2 

Hence, 21 g N2 requires \(\frac{6\times21}{28}\) = 4.5 g H2 

21g N2 reacts completely and 0.5g H2 remains unreacted. 

Hence, N2 is the limiting reagent.

28g N2 gives 2 x 17g NH3

∴ 21 g N2 gives \(\frac{2\times17\times21}{28}\) = 25.5 g NH3

13887.

Calculate the mole fraction of NaOH in a solution containing 20 g of NaOH per 360 g of water.

Answer»

Number of moles of NaoH = \(\frac{20g}{40\,g\,mol^{-1}}\) = 0.5

Number of moles of water = \(\frac{360g}{18\,g\,mol^{-1}}\) = 20

Total number of moles = 20.5

mole fraction of NoaH = \(\frac{0.5}{20.5}\) = 0.0244

13888.

Calculate the volume occupied by 6.02 × 1025 molecules of oxygen at STP.

Answer»

Volume occupied by 1 mole of oxygen gas at STP = 22.4 l

i.e., Volume occupied by 6.02×1023 molecules of oxygen gas at STP = 22.4 l

Hence the volume occupied by 6.02 × 1025 molecules of oxygen gas at STP = \(\frac{22.4\times6.02\times10^{25}}{6.02\times10^{23}}\) =  2240 l.

13893.

What is the final volume of reaction mixture if 8 L of H2 and 6L of Cl2 are allowed to react.

Answer»

The correct answer is (3) 14 L

The equation for the reaction is:

H2(g) + Cl2(g) → 2HCl

​According to the mole concept, under standard conditions, one mole of any gas occupies 22.7 L volume.
So, the equation says that 1 mole of H2 (22.7 L) requires 1 mole of Cl​2 (22.7 L) to form 2 moles of HCl (45.4 L)
Thus, 22.7 L of H2 requires = 22.7 L of Cl2
So, 8 L of H2 will require = 8 L of Cl2
But we have only 6 L of Cl2. Thus, Chlorine gas is the limiting reagent and the amount of products will depend on its amount only.

Now, 22.7 of Cl2 forms = 45.4 L of HCl,
So, 6 L of Cl2 will form = 45.4/22.7×6 = 12 L of HCl
Now, chlorine gas is completely consumed as it is the limiting reagent. Along with it, 6L of hydrogen gas is also consumed. Now, 2L of hydrogen gas is still present.
Thus, the reaction mixture will contain 12 L of HCl and 2 L of H2.
So, total volume of the reaction mixture will be 14 L.

But he never turned up on Friday. On Saturday, he rushed in, more worried than ever and said, “Doctor, will you please do something to stop buzzing in my head?”?“Open your eyes,” said the doctor quickly,“and look at me.”The patient obeyed. “And now where are the bees ?”The sheepdog shook his head. “Can’t say.They flew away.”“Listen,” said the doctor. “I was at your place of work today. In fact, I saw you in action. Even talked to some of your flock.”“Oh, those,” the sheepdog made a face. “You need not have taken the trouble. Sheep can’t think for themselves.”“Well, let me tell you most of them do and they think you are unpleasant, short-tempered, impatient, unreasonable bully.”The patient leapt to his feet and got shocked. “How can they say like this ? I always struggle to keep them together and save them out of any harm.”“That is it. You keep them together by bullying them into a tight bunch. You won’t let them step out of the circle. You don’t even allow them to search for juicy grass.”“Bah! They are eating all the time as it is,” said the sheepdog. But he didn’t sound quite as angry as before. (1) With what complaint did the dog enter on Saturday?(2) What did the doctor do to find out the cause of the dog’s complaint?(3) What report did the doctor get from the sheep that the dog was looking after?(4) What did the dog say in his defense?(5) What hateful things did the dog do for the sheep ?

Answer»

(1) On Saturday, the dog entered with the complaint that he felt a great buzzing of bees in his head.

(2) To find out the cause of the dog’s complaint, the doctor went to his place of work and saw him in action. He even talked to some . of his flock.

(3) The doctor got the report from the sheep that the dog was unpleasant, short-tempered, impatient and an unreasonable bully.

(4) In his defense, the dog said that he always struggled to keep them together and save them out of any harm.

(5) The dog kept them together by bullying them into a tight bunch. He didn’t let them step out of the circle. He didn’t even allow them to search for juicy grass, therefore, the sheep hated him.
