Question

When a small amount of the detergentsodium dodecyl su lfate is dissolved in water, the detergent ions enter the solution as monomeric species. As more detergent is added, a concentration is reached (the critical micelle concentration) at which the monomers associate to form micelles. The critical micelle concentration of SDS is 8.2 mM. The micelles have an average particle weight (the sum of the molecular weights of the constituent monomers) of 18,000. Calculate the number of detergent molecules in the average micelle.
