Percentage of Se in peroxidase anhydrase...

Percentage of Se in peroxidase anhydrase enzyme is `0.5%` by weight (at. Weight =78,4), then minimum molecular weight of peroxidase anhydrase enzyme is

A

`1.576 xx 10^4`

B

`1.576 xx 10^3 `

C

`15.76 `

D

`2.136 xx 10^4`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The enzymes must contain at least one atom of Se.
`because ` 0.5 g of Se is present in 100 g of enzyme
`therefore` 78.4 g of Se will be present in `= (100 xx 78.4)/(0.5)`
`= 1.576 xx 10^(4)` g of enzymes
