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.

Answer:
To increase the yield of H₂ we would use a low temperature.
For an exothermic reaction such as this, decreasing temperature increases the value of K and the amount of products at equilibrium. Low temperature increases the value of K and the amount of products at equilibrium.
Explanation:
Let´s consider the following reaction:
CO(g) + H₂O(g) ⇌ CO₂(g) + H₂(g)
When a system at equilibrium is disturbed, the response of the system is explained by Le Chatelier's Principle: <em>If a system at equilibrium suffers a perturbation (in temperature, pressure, concentration), the system will shift its equilibrium position to counteract such perturbation</em>.
In this case, we have an exothermic reaction (ΔH° < 0). We can imagine heat as one of the products. If we decrease the temperature, the system will try to raise it favoring the forward reaction to release heat and, at the same time, increasing the yield of H₂. By having more products, the value of the equilibrium constant K increases.
0 degree Celsius is equal to 272 k
So to convert C to k we need to add 273
To convert K to C we need to subtract 273
