Question 2: A protein solution is centrfuged at 10,000g. At the end of the centrifugation, it was seen that the protein formed a sediment cloud that is 2 in height. Using this knowledge and assuming that the solvent is water, estimate the molecular weight of the protein in Daltons. The shape of the protein can be approximated as a sphere. (Note: the size of the protein is unknown, i.e. you cannot assume a size. You can assume a certain density for the protein using the lecture notes) (50 points)
