an enzyme contains 2% of sulphur molecular weight of enzyme is 6400 number of Sulphur atoms in the enzyme
Answers
TOPIC :- STOICHIOMETRY
SOLUTION :-
Given,
Given, the enzyme contains 2 % Sulphur .
Molecular mass of enzyme = 6400 gm
Hence, mass of sulphur in the enzyme = 6400 × 2℅
= 6400 × 2/100
= 128 gm
Now, mass of one sulphur atom = 32.
Hence, number of sulphur atom in 128 gm sulphur = 132/28 = 4.
Thus ,number of sulphur atom = 4.

Your question is correct but the sentence allocation is bit confusing. The correct sentence formation for this would look like :
An enzyme contains 2% of sulphur molecular weight of enzyme is 6400.How many sulphur atoms are present in that enzyme molecule?
The sulphur atoms are present in that enzyme molecule is 4.
= Percentage of sulphur = weight of sulphur / molecular weight of sulphur * 100.
= 2 = weight of sulphur / 6400 * 100
= 2 * 6400 / 100
= 128g.
Then the number of sulphur atoms
= 128 / 32
= 4.
Therefore the sulphur atoms are present in that enzyme molecule is 4.
