How many molecules of amino acids do you take with a piece of 500 grams of meat? (on average an amino acid is ~100 Daltons) Assuming that approx 20-25% of the weight is protein, that leaves us with 100-125g protein in a 500 gram meat piece. The average amino acid molar mass is approx. 100 g/mol. With Avogadro’s number 6.022×1023 the number of molecules is between: 1 x 6.022×1023 = 6.022×1023 and 1.25 x 6.022×1023 = 7.5 ×1023 (approx)</description><generator>Hugo</generator><language>en</language><atom:link href="https://pages.htgaa.org/2026a/florian-kroh/homework/week-04-hw-protein-design-part-i/index.xml" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/></channel></rss>
