Insulin contain 3.4% sulphur. Calculate the minimum mass of insullin. |
|
Answer» Solution :Minimum MOLECULAR MASS of INSULIN will be the mass containing at least ONE ATOM of sulphur. But one atoms of S = 32 amu Given that 3.4 amu of sulphur is present in 100 amu of insulin `therefore"32 amu of sulphur will be present in insulin"=(100)/(3.4)xx32=941.2amu` Hence, minimum mass of insulin = 941.2 amu. |
