P-Galactosidase (B-gal) is a hydrolase enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of B-galactosides into monosaccharides. A 0.607 g sample of B-galactosidase is dissolved in water to make 0.171 L of solution, and the osmotic pressure of the solution at 25 °C is found to be 0.756 mbar. Calculate the molecular mass of B-galactosidase. molecular mass: g/mol
