Question

For men in 1960, the average cholesterol count was 220. Like many blood chemistry measurements, this result is measured in units of milligrams per decileter (mg dL-1).

What is the molar concentration of cholesterol in a person with this cholesterol count? (Use 386.64 g mol-1 as the molar mass of cholesterol.)
M cholesterol



Estimate the molality of the cholesterol. (Since the density will be an estimate, use 2 significant figures.)
m cholesterol



Finally, what volume of blood would contain 9.80 g of cholesterol?
L blood
