Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of calculating the number of iron atoms per molecule of hemoglobin, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the amount of iron in 100 grams of hemoglobin. Given that hemoglobin contains 0.25% iron by weight, we can find the amount of iron in 100 grams of hemoglobin. \[ \text{Amount of iron} = \frac{0.25}{100} \times 100 \, \text{grams} = 0.25 \, \text{grams} \] ...
