Chapter 5, Problem 5.24E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The molar mass of L-carnitine has to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Molar mass can be calculated by using following formula,

  $\begin{array}{l}\text{Π}\text{=}\frac{\text{nRT}}{\text{V}}\\ \\ \text{M=}\frac{m\text{RT}}{\text{VΠ}}\\ \\ \text{Where,}\\ \text{Π}\text{-}\text{Osmatic}\text{pressure}\\ \text{V}\text{-}\text{Volume}\\ \text{n}\text{=}\text{moles}\\ \text{T}\text{-}\text{Temperature}\\ \text{R}\text{-}\text{Gas}\text{constant}\end{array}$

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The molecular formula of L-carnitine has to be found.
