Question:
Which of the following statements correctly describe(s) the driving forces for diffusion of Na+ and K+ ions through their respective channels? Select all that apply.
A)The diffusion of Na+ ions into the cell is facilitated by the Na+ concentration gradient across the plasma membrane.
B)The diffusion of Na+ ions into the cell is impeded by the electrical gradient across the plasma membrane.
C)The diffusion of K+ ions out of the cell is impeded by the K+ concentration gradient across the plasma membrane.
D)The diffusion of K+ ions out of the cell is impeded by the electrical gradient across the plasma membrane. The electrochemical gradient is larger for Na+ than for K+.
Answer:
"The concentration gradient and the electro-chemical gradient" describes the driving forces for diffusion of Na+ and K+ ions through their respective channels
Explanation:
The Na ions diffusion inside the cell is facilitated by the concentration gradient of the Na ions which is present across the plasma membrane. Hence, the diffusion of the K ions which is present outside the cell and will be impeded due to the electrical gradient which is present near the plasma membrane. Thus, the electro-chemical gradient is greater as compared to the Na ion than that of the K ion.
The oxidation state of the elements in the compounds are:
CoH₂:
FeBr₃:
<h3>What is the oxidation states of the elements in the given compounds?</h3>
The oxidation states of the elements in each of the given compounds is determined as follows:

Answer:
a) KOH
Explanation:
In the given balanced reaction
2K + 2H2O → 2KOH + H2
In the compound KOH,
The elements are K,O, and H and in the compound, there is one mole each of K , O ,and H.
So the element ratio here is 1 : 1 : 1.
