Answer

$ 1.6 * 10^{4}g$

Work Step by Step

From the mass % Fe in hemoglobin, we can determine the mass of hemoglobin. % Fe = $\frac{mass of Fe}{mass of Hemoglobin} * 100% $ Solving for the mass of hemoglobin: Mass of hemoglobin $* 0.34%$ = $55.85g * 100 \% $ Mass of hemoglobin = $\frac{55.85g * 100\%}{0.34\%} = 1.6 * 10^{4}g$
