(a)
To determine: The number of molecules of NaCl present in 1L of solution of 1.0M NaCl having 58.5g of salt per liter.
Introduction: Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute present in 1 liter of solution. The unit of molarity is mol/L. The molarity of the solution is used to express the concentration of the solution.
(b)
To determine: The number of millimoles of NaCl presents in the solution of 1.0M NaCl containing 58.5g of salt per liter.
Introduction: The mole is the SI unit that measures the amount of a substance. One mole is equal to the
(c)
To determine: The number of equivalents of sodium ions present in the 1.0M solution of NaCl.
Introduction: The concentration of ions present in a solution is expressed as the number of equivalents per liter. One equivalent is equal to the number of charges carried by one molarity of ions.
(d)
To determine: The percent solution of 58.5g of NaCl per liter.
Introduction: The concentration of the solute in a solution is expressed by percent solution. It means a 10% solution is 10 parts of solute in 100 parts of solution. The amount of solute in a percent solution is expressed as the percentage of total solution weight or volume.

- Molecular Biology Question You are working to characterize a novel protein in mice. Analysis shows that high levels of the primary transcript that codes for this protein are found in tissue from the brain, muscle, liver, and pancreas. However, an antibody that recognizes the C-terminal portion of the protein indicates that the protein is present in brain, muscle, and liver, but not in the pancreas. What is the most likely explanation for this result?arrow_forwardMolecular Biology Explain/discuss how “slow stop” and “quick/fast stop” mutants wereused to identify different protein involved in DNA replication in E. coli.arrow_forwardMolecular Biology Question A gene that codes for a protein was removed from a eukaryotic cell and inserted into a prokaryotic cell.
