What is the mass of a POPC lipid?? I cannot find it through online searches

Hi. It seems like a simple question to me. I just want to know the mass of a POPC lipid molecule either in amu or any other mass unit.

From searching online I only get results of journal articles that did something or other with POPC lipids for experiments but I either don't have access to these papers or it seems that they do not directly state this anywhere anyway.

Thanks.

Great, thanks!
 

Thread 'Solubility of MgSO47H2O in water'

It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...

Thread 'Why does having 8 valence electrons make an element inert?'

I was introduced to the Octet Rule recently and make me wonder, why does 8 valence electrons or a full p orbital always make an element inert? What is so special with a full p orbital? Like take Calcium for an example, its outer orbital is filled but its only the s orbital thats filled so its still reactive not so much as the Alkaline metals but still pretty reactive. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks!!
