Q1. 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) I’ve made some assumptions:
The meat mass does not include air or water. The meat mass does not include organic materials that are not amino acids A Dalton is a unit of mass used to express atomic and molecular weights. I used this converter to determine how many Daltons are in 500 grams of organic material. 500 g = 3.011086821E+26 daltons. If an amino acid is 100 daltons, then 500 g would contain 3.011086821E+24 molecules.</description><generator>Hugo</generator><language>en</language><atom:link href="https://pages.htgaa.org/2026a/kevin-garwood/homework/week-04-hw-protein-design-part-i/index.xml" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/></channel></rss>
