Though molecular weight of lipid is less...

Though molecular weight of lipid is less, it is included in Biomacromolecules.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`-` Components with less molecular weight than 1000 Dalton are included in micro molecules and more than it, are called macromolecules.
`-` Proteins and polysaccharides are macro molecules present in acid soluble filterate.
- Lipid is having less than 1000 Dalton molecular weight, but it is found in structural component of plasma membrne.
- During paste forming process, fragnencs of plasma membrane is found in acid soluble components so, though lipids are having less molecular weight, they are included along with other macromolecules.

A gaseous mixture enclosed in a vessel of volume V consists of one gram mole of gas A with gamma = (C_(P))/(C_(V)) = (5)/(3) an another gas B with gamma = (7)/(5) at a certain temperature T . The gram molecular weights of the gases A and B are 4 and 32 respectively. The gases A and B do not react with each other and are assumed to be ideal. The gaseous mixture follows the equation PV^(19//13) = constant , in adiabatic process. Find the number of gram moles of the gas B in the gaseous mixture.
