  1. Calculate the average displacement in 1 min along a given axis
    produced by Brownian motion for a spherical particle of radius 0.1 JAIH
    suspended in water at 25°C.

  2. The sedimentation and diffusion coefficients for myoglobin in
    dilute aqueous solution at 20°C are 2.04 x 10"^13 s and 1.13 x 10"^10
    m^2 s"^1 , respectively. The partial specific volume of the protein is
    0.741 cm^3 g"^1 , the density of the solution is 1.00 g cm"^3 and the
    coefficient of viscosity of the solution is 1.00 x 10~^3 kg in"^1 s"^1.
    Calculate (a) the relative molecular mass and (b) the frictional ratio of
    this protein. What is the probable shape of a dissolved myoglobin
    molecule?

  3. An aqueous solution of p-lactoglobulin in the presence of
    sufficient electrolyte to eliminate charge effects was centrifuged to
