Chapter 5: Problem 106 Introductory Chemistry (MasteringChemistry) 6Molecules can be as small as two atoms or as large as thousands of atoms. In 1962, Max F. Perutz and John C. Kendrew were awarded the Nobel Prize for their discovery of the structure of hemoglobin, a very large molecule that transports oxygen from the lungs to cells through the bloodstream. The chemical formula of hemoglobin is \(\mathrm{C}_{2952} \mathrm{H}_{4664} \mathrm{O}_{832} \mathrm{~N}_{812} \mathrm{~S}_{8} \mathrm{Fe}_{4}\). Calculate the formula mass of hemoglobin.

Chapter 5: Problem 112 Introductory Chemistry (MasteringChemistry) 6Climate scientists have become increasingly concerned that rising levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere (produced by the burning of fossil fuels) will affect the global climate in harmful ways such as increased temperatures, rising sea levels, and coastal flooding. The graph at right shows the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere from the mid-1800s to the present time. Study the graph and answer the questions that follow. (a) What were the carbon dioxide concentrations in 1950 and 2000? How much did the carbon dioxide concentration increase during these 50 years? (b) What was the average yearly increase between 1950 and 2000? (c) Beginning from the carbon dioxide concentration in 2010 (390 ppm), and assuming the average yearly increase you calculated in part b, what will the carbon dioxide concentration be in 2050?
