✔ 最佳答案
Molar mass of Co = 58.93 g/mol
No. of moles of Co = (7.2 g) / (58.93 g/mol) = 0.1222 mol

Each protein molecule contains 3 Co atoms.
No. of moles of 500 g of protein = 0.1222 × (1/3) = 0.0407 mol

Molar mass of the protein = (500 g) / (0.0407 mol) ≈ 12,000 g/mol

...... The answer is : b) 12,000 g/mol
