How to find out the molecular weight of cellulase powder(Aspergillus niger catalyzes the hydrolysis of endo-1,4-β-D)from specific activity units/gram?

You can't. There is not enough information.

The molecular weight of the enzyme may be known, in which case it can be found in the literature, or calculated from the amino acid sequence.

The powder may not be pure enzyme. It may be a relatively crude preparation, in which case the molecular weight is not a relevant parameter.
