Question

Recall that the average molecular weight cut off of the dialysis tubing is 14,000 amu. Are protein larger or smaller than 14,000 amu? How about sugars? Explain.

Answer 1

The average molecular mass of protein is greater than 10,000 .

Here given 14000 but actually average molecular mass of protein is less than 14000 and higher than 10,000 .

The average mass of sugar is 342.3 g/mol

Which very less than 14,000

Sugar has molecular formula

C12H22O11
