Question

lucose, a major energy-yielding nutrient, is present in bacterial cells at a concentration of approximately 0.200 mM. i) What is the concentration of glucose in the E. coli cell in mg/mL?

Answer 1

Answer:

The concentration is 0.036 mg/mL

Explanation:

Concentration = 0.2 mM = 0.2/1000 = 2×10^-4 M = 2×10^-4 mol/L × 180,000 mg/1 mol × 1 L/1000 mL = 0.036 mg/mL
