John wanted to determine the protein content of his blood. To do so, he obtained 1.00 mL of blood, and diluted it to 10.00 mL. From that solution, he subjected 1.00 mL to Kjeldahl analysis. After digestion, the liberated NH3 was distilled in a flask containing exactly 25.00 mL of 0.0150 M H3BO3. Titration requires 5.85 mL of standard 0.0150 M NaOH to reach the desired endpoint. If a typical blood sample contains 15.45 g N per 100 g protein, calculate the protein content (in g/mL) in the sample of John’s blood.

Question

John wanted to determine the protein content of his blood. To do so, he obtained 1.00 mL
of blood, and diluted it to 10.00 mL. From that solution, he subjected 1.00 mL to Kjeldahl analysis. After digestion, the liberated NH3 was distilled in a flask containing exactly 25.00 mL of 0.0150 M H3BO3. Titration requires 5.85 mL of standard 0.0150 M NaOH to reach the desired endpoint. If a typical blood sample contains 15.45 g N per 100 g protein, calculate
the protein content (in g/mL) in the sample of John’s blood.

6. John wanted to determine the protein content of his blood. To do so, he obtained 1.00 mL
of blood, and diluted it to 10.00 mL. From that solution, he subiected 1.00 mL to Kjeldahl
analysis. After digestion, the liberated NH3 was distilled in a flask containing exactly 25.00
mL of 0.0150 M H;BO3. Titration requires 5.85 mL of standard 0.0150 M NaOH to reach the
desired endpoint. If a typical blood sample contains 15.45 g N per 100 g protein, calculate
the protein content (in g/mL) in the sample of John's blood.
