Detailed Solution
Specific volume (volume of g) of cylindrical virus particle =6.02 × 10−2 cc/gRadius of virus (r) = 7 A0 = 7 × 10−8 cmLength of virus = 10 × 10−8 cmVolume of virusπr2 L= 227 × 7 × 10−8 2 × 10 × 10−8 =154 × 10−23 ccWt. of one virus particle = volumespecific volume∴ Mol. wt. of virus = wt. of NA particle= 154 × 10−23 6.02 × 10−2 × 6.02 × 1023 =15400 g/mol=15.4 kg/mol
