One molecule of haemoglobin will combine with four molecules of oxygen. If 1.0 g of haemoglobin combines with 1.53 mL of O2 at body temperature 37 °C and a pressure of 743 torr, what is the molar mass of haemoglobin?

If the answer is of type y×103 g mol-1, report the value of y correct up to nearest integer.

Mercury diffusion pumps may be used in the laboratory to produce a high vacuum. Cold traps are generally placed between the pump and the system to be evacuated. These cause the condensation of Hg vapours, and prevent mercury from diffusing back into the system. The maximum pressure of mercury that can exist in the system is the vapour pressure of mercury at the temperature of the cold trap. Calculate the number of mercury-vapour molecules per cc present in a cold trap maintained at -120°C. The vapour pressure of mercury at this temperature is 10-6 mm. If answer is a×1010 report a.

A glass tube sealed at both the ends is 100 cm long. It lies horizontally with the mid 10 cm containing Hg. The two ends of the tube contain air at a temperature of 27°C and a pressure 76 cm Hg. The air column on one side is maintained at 0°C and 127°C on the other side. Calculate the length of the air column on the cooler side. Neglect the changes in the volume of mercury and of the glass.
