What would happen if there was no sodium potassium pump?

Chemistry

The sodium-potassium pump (NaK) is very important for the function of the most cellular process in the body, It's responsible for the movement of the K ions into the cell and the movement of the Na ions outside the cell at the same time.
It's important for excitable cells such as a nerve cell, the pump helps it with transmitting pluses. It also important in controls cardiac contractions and control blood pressure. It plays an important role in maintaining the sodium and potassium balance in the body in the kidneys.So the Cell function will be affected badly if there was no sodium-potassium pump.

12345 [234]

Answer:

650 mmol.

Explanation:

The equation for the fermentation of one mole of glucose is:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 2 NAD⁺ + 2 ADP + 2 P i + 2 NADH → 2 EtOH + 2 ATP + 2 NADH + 2 NAD⁺

Since NAD⁺/NADH is used and regenerated, we can eliminate it from the equation:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 2 ADP + 2 P i  → 2 EtOH + 2 ATP

With the equation, we calculate the maximum amount of ethanol that could be obtained theoretically:

1000 mmol C₆H₁₂O₆ ------------ 2000 mmol EtOH

325 mmol C₆H₁₂O₆ ------------- x= 650 mmol EtOH

Therefore, the maximum amount of ethanol that could be produced is 650 mmol.

A sample of a monoprotic acid (ha) weighing 0.384 g is dissolved in water and the solution is titrated with aqueous naoh. if 30.
posledela
The formula for the monoprotic acid is taken as HA, reaction with base is as follows;
HA + NaOH ---> NaA + H₂O
Stoichiometry of acid to base is 1:1
At the neutralisation point, number of HA moles = number of base moles
Number of NaOH moles reacted = 0.100M / 1000 mL /L x 30.0 mL = 0.003 mol
Therefore number of HA moles reacted = 0.003 mol
the mass of acid 0.384 g
Therefore molar mass - 0.384 g/ 0.003 mol = 128 g/mol

What is the mass of 3.2 moles of Sulfur?​
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

820.864 g

Explanation:

1) The atomic mass of sulfur (found from the periodic table) is 32.065 amu. Use this mass to find the molar mass of Sulfur. Sulfur is S8 so the molar mass of sulfur is:

8 × 32.065 = 256.52 g/mol

2) To find the mass use the formula:

m = n × M where <em>m</em><em> </em>is the mass, <em>n</em><em> </em>is the number of moles, and <em>M</em><em> </em>is the molar mass.

3)

m \: = 3.2 \times 256.52

m = 820.864 \: g

Calculate the molecular mass of Na2HPO4
seropon [69]

Answer:

Molar mass of Na2HPO4=141.96, of Na2HPO4. 12H2O = 358.14: so to get the same 0.4 M: 28.65/358.14*141.96 g, add water until you reach 200ml , dissolve all solid and then filter to make sterile.
