AATT You are a researcher in a geochemistry laboratory. A colleague brought to you a new mineral that you have never seen before. You need to identify all of the elements and their quantities in this mineral. You turn the mineral into a powder and put the mineral into multiple scientific machines to determine what it is made of. Your sample contained the following elements and amounts. • 160 grams of oxygen . 120 grams of silicon • 80 grams of aluminum ● 16 grams of magnesium . 32 grams of calcium. . 4 grams of uranium. Determine the mass percent of the different components in your soil sample. 29. Oxygen 30. Silicon 31. Aluminum 32. Magnesium 33. Calcium 34. Uranium

You are given pure serine in powder form, and you are asked to make exactly 20 mL of a 20 μM solution. How much serine powder (in μg) would you need to make such a solution? For this problem, assume that carbon has molar mass of 12 amu, hydrogen 1 amu, nitrogen 14 amu, oxygen 16 amu, and sulfur 32 amu. You must compute the molecular weight of serine after drawing it; do not look up the molecular weight on google. Show your unit conversion fully step by step
