The double helical structure of $DNA$ was proposed by

The average energy of each hydrogen bond in $A-T$ pair is $x \, kcal \, mol^{-1}$ and that in $G-C$ pair is $y \, kcal \, mol^{-1}$. Assuming that no other interaction exists between the nucleotides,the approximate energy required in $kcal \, mol^{-1}$ to split the following double stranded $DNA$ into two single strands is:
$A$-$T$-$A$-$T$-$G$-$C$-$A$-$G$

$T$-$A$-$T$-$A$-$C$-$G$-$T$-$C$

The double-helical structure of $DNA$ is due to ....
