14. Solutions
Osmotic Pressure
3PRACTICE PROBLEM
Myoglobin is an oxygen-binding molecule in the muscles and has a structure similar to hemoglobin. An aqueous solution containing 2.50 g of myoglobin per 90.0 mL solution was found to have an osmotic pressure of 7.25 mmHg at 25 °C. Determine the molar mass of myoglobin.
