Acertain protein was found to contain 0.582% iron by mass. determine the minimum molecular mass of the protein.

9595.361 The minimum mass of the protein would be a molecule with exactly 1 iron atom in it. Looking up the atomic weight of iron, you get 55.845. So you can create the equation 0.582% x = 55.845 Get rid of the percent 0.00582 x = 55.845 Divide both sides by 0.00582 x = 9595.361 So the minimum molecular mass of the protein will be 9595.361

Elias is almost correct. he just got it backwards.the correct answer is that it demonstrates elastic potential energy transforming into kinetic energy.
