A plant virus is found to consist of uniform cylindrical particle of `150 Å` in diameter 5000 Å long. The specific volume of the virus is 0.75 `mLg^(-1)`. If the virus is considered to be a single particle, find its molar mass.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Volume of virus `= pir^(2)l`
`=(22)/(7)=(150)/(2)xx(150)/(2)xx10^(-16)xx5000xx10^(-8)`
`=0.884xx10^(-16)cm^(3)`
`:.` Weight of one virus `=(0.884xx10^(-16))/(0.75)g`
`=1.178xx10^(-16)g`
`:.` Mol.wt.of virus `=1.178xx10^(-16)xx6.023xx10^(23)`
`=7.095xx10^(7)`
