The Activity Coefficient of Hemoglobin

The following data are available on the activity of hemoglobin in aqueous solution.^{18}

c (g/L) a (g/L) c (g/L) a (g/L) c (g/L) a (g/L)
20 23.1 120 330 220 2060
40 53.5 140 473 240 3040
60 94.6 160 679 260 4580
80 150 180 973 280 7040
100 226 200 1410 300 11050

Compute the hemoglobin activity coefficient as a function of concentration, and fit those results using Eq. 9.7-21.

\ln \gamma_{ i }^{\bullet}=B_{i} \cdot c_{i}+C_{ i } \cdot c_{i}^{2}+D_{i} \cdot c_{i}^{3}+\cdots (9.7-21)
