Molar mass of a compound is the equivalent mass of the compound per mole of it. To determine the molar mass of hemoglobin, we need to know the mass and the number of moles that is present in a certain sample. We make use of the values given above.
Given
0.340 percent Fe = 0.340 g Fe / 100 g hemoglobin
4 atoms Fe per 1 molecule of hemoglobin

Solution:
4 atoms Fe per 1 molecule of hemoglobin ( 1 mol Fe / 6.022 x10^23 atoms Fe) ( 55 .85 g Fe/ 1 mol Fe ) ( 6.022x10^23 molecule hemoglobin / 1 mol hemoglobin ) = 223.4 g Fe / mol hemoglobin

Molar mass = (100 g hemoglobin / 0.340 g Fe) (223.4 g Fe / mol hemoglobin) = 65705.88 g/mol hemoglobin

14. What volume (mL) of water do I need to add to 425
Reptile [31]

Answer:

212.5 mL

both the original and the diluted solution have 0.765 moles of KCl

Explanation:

c1V1 = c2V2

V2 = c1V1/c2 = (1.8 M×425 mL)/1.2 M = 637.5 mL

(637.5 - 425) mL = 212.5 mL

n = (1.8 mol/L)(0.425 L) = 0.765 moles of KCl

since it's a dilution, the diluted solution has the same number of moles as the original solution, 0.765 moles of KCl

klemol [59]

Answer: Fire requires oxygen to burn. Water "smothers" fire and prevents it from acquiring more oxygen. Fire also requires heat, which cool water may prevent/remove.

What kind of bonds are hydrogen bonds???
34kurt

Hydrogen bonding is a special type of dipole-dipole attraction between molecules, not a covalent bond to a hydrogen atom. It results from the attractive force between a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to a very electronegative atom such as a N, O, or F atom and another very electronegative atom.
