Question
Chapter 6, Problem 33CQ
Summary Introduction
To calculate: The ratio of the volume of a hemoglobin molecule (65 kD) of the four O2 molecules that bind and the ratio of the volume of a typical office (4×4×3m) of the typical (70-Kg) office worker that occupies it.
Summary Introduction
To compare: The ratio of volume of a hemoglobin molecule (65 kD) of the four O2 molecules in equal proportions to their molecular masses in office (4×4×3m) and that the office worker has a density of 1.0 g/cm3 and check if it matches with the expected results.
