Answer:

Hi

True

Explanation:

Since on the inner and outer surfaces of the membrane, a series of negatively charged amino acids are found, which increase the local concentration of cations. The path of the ions begins on the inner surface filled with water molecules where the ion can retain its hydration sphere. Two thirds of its interior in the membrane the inside of the channel narrows in the region of the selectivity filter, forcing the ion to separate from the water molecules. Oxygen atoms in the selectivity filter replace the water molecules in the K+ hydration sphere, forming a series of coordination spheres through which the ion moves. The preferential stabilization of K+ against Na+ is the basis of the ion selectivity of this filter.

Which of the following correctly describes a compound?
Nutka1998 [239]

A compound is a pure substance formed by the chemical combination of two or more different elements.


A compound may be splitted into simpler substances by chemical reactions, and has different properties to those of the elements that form it.


The composition of a compound is fixed: every piece of a compound has the same kind of atoms, bonded in the same way and proportion.


Some examples of compounds are H₂O, NaCl, H₂O₂, CH₃COOH. As you see, they have a chemical formula which states the kind and number of the atoms that form them.


They are different to mixtures, which are formed by two or more compounds, in a variable proportion, and can be separated by physical media. Some examples of mixtures are the solutions (e.g. NaCl dissolved in H₂O), and some solid mixtures (e.g. a mixture of marbles and sand).
