Chapter 1: Q19P. (page 22)

How many glucose molecules does the cell in Problem 18 contain when its internal glucose concentration is 1.0mM ?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The number of glucose molecules present in a cell with 1.0mM internal concentration for glucose molecule has 3.2 $\times$ 10⁵molecules.

Step by step solution

01

Given data

Glucose concentration is 1.0mM.

Molar concentration is 1.0 $\times$ 10^-3 molL^-1.

Volume is 5.24 $\times$ 10^-16 L.

02

Calculate the number of glucose molecules

Number of Molecules = Molar Concentration $\times$ Volume $\times$ 6.022 $\times$ 10²³ molecules mol^-1

= (1.0 $\times$ 10^-3 molL^-1)(5.24 $\times$ 10^-16L)(6.022 $\times$ 10²³ molecules mol^-1)

= 3.2 $\times$ 10⁵ molecules

03

Conclusion

As a result, in a cell with a 1.0mMinternal glucose concentration, there are 3.2 glucose molecules present.

Most popular questions from this chapter

Explain how biochemists define the standard state of a solute. Why do biochemists and chemists use different conventions?

Two biochemical reactions have the same $K_{e q} = 5 \times 10^{8}$ at tem-perature $T_{1} = 298 K$ . However, Reaction 1 has $Δ H ° = - 28 k J m o l^{- 1}$ and Reaction 2 has. $Δ H ° = + 28 k J m o l^{- 1}$ The two reactions utilize the same reactants. Your lab partner has proposed that you can get more of the reactants to proceed via Reaction 2 rather than Reaction 1 by lowering the temperature of the reaction. Will this strategy work? Why or why not? How much would the temperature have to be raised or lowered in order to change the value of $\frac{K_{2}}{K_{1}}$ from 1 to 10?

Explain how individual variations allow evolution to occur?

The bacterium Thiomargarita namibiensis—at about 0.1 to 0.3 mm in diameter—is visible to the human eye. How does its size compare to the size of typical prokaryotic cells? How does it compare to the size of typical eukaryotic cells?

The equilibrium constant for the reaction $Q \to R$ is 25.

If $50 μ M$ of Q is mixed with $50 μ M$ of R, which way will the reaction proceed to generate more Q or more R?
Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of Q and R.
