The percentage of the total
Concept introduction:
A heme group contains an iron atom in it. The heme unit is connected with a protein chain. A protein contains many amino acids. The number of amino acid is higher than the number of heme units in a hemoglobin molecule. There are different types of hemoglobin molecules which are categorized on the basis of their forms and functions.

Answer to Problem 25.10E
Approximately,
Explanation of Solution
The hemoglobin serves various functions in different chemical forms. One form of hemoglobin acts as an oxygen carrier in the blood. This form is named as oxyhemoglobin. Oxyhemoglobin is the type of hemoglobin that transports oxygen. Most of the oxygen is transported by the blood in this form. The percentage for this form is around

- A martini, weighing about 5.0 oz (142 g), contains 30.0% by mass of alcohol. About 15% of the alcohol in the martini passes directly into the bloodstream (7.0 L for an adult). Estimate the concentration of alcohol in the blood (g/cm3) of a person who drinks two martinis before dinner. (A concentration of 0.00080 g/cm3 or more is frequently considered indicative of intoxication in a normal adult.)arrow_forward1. A stock solution of I2 is standardized using a 0.1430 g sample of pure ascorbic acid. The titration to the starch endpoint required 25.45 mL of the I2 solution. Calculate the molarity of the I2 solution. 2. A vitamin C tablet was divided into three equal mass portions. One portion was crushed into a fine powder, dissolved in water, and titrated with the standardized solution from question 2 (above).
