g Consider a uniport system where a carrier protein transports an uncharged substance A across a cell membrane. Suppose that at

a certain ratio of [ A ] inside to [ A ] outside , the Δ G for the transport of substance A from outside the cell to the inside, A outside → A inside , is − 14.1 kJ/mol at 25°C. What is the ratio of the concentration of substance A inside the cell to the concentration outside?

Answer :  The ratio of the concentration of substance A inside the cell to the concentration outside is, 296.2

Explanation :

The relation between the equilibrium constant and standard Gibbs free energy is:

\Delta G^o=-RT\times \ln Q\\\\\Delta G^o=-RT\times \ln (\frac{[A]_{inside}}{[A]_{outside}})

where,

\Delta G^o = standard Gibbs free energy  = -14.1 kJ/mol

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/K.mol

T = temperature = 25^oC=273+25=298K

Q  = reaction quotient

[A]_{inside} = concentration inside the cell

[A]_{outside} = concentration outside the cell

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

-14.1\times 10^3J/mol =-(8.314J/K.mol)\times (298K)\times \ln (\frac{[A]_{inside}}{[A]_{outside}})

\frac{[A]_{inside}}{[A]_{outside}}=296.2

Thus, the ratio of the concentration of substance A inside the cell to the concentration outside is, 296.2

Hello! I just need a little bit of help. I'm supposed to design an experiment on how reaction rates are determined and affected
alexandr1967 [171]
  1. Get 3 cups of water at the exact same temperature, using the thermometer to check.
  2. Label the cups as ‘whole’, ‘pieces’, and ‘crushed’
  3. Next, get something to dissolve, in this case, polident. Take one of the polident tablets and break it into 4 pieces, and set it aside.
  4. Take another polident tablet and this time put it into a different cup, and crush it. Set it aside.
  5. Keep the last tablet whole.
  6. Set up your stopwatch and drop the polident tablet that is whole in the cup labeled ‘whole’, starting the stopwatch at the same time.
  7. Watch the cup and see when the tablet is fully dissolved, then stop the stopwatch.
  8. Record the time in the table.
  9. Repeat steps 6-8 for both the ‘pieces’ and ‘crushed’ tablets.

Hope this helps! Please let me know if you need more help, or if you think my answer is incorrect. Brainliest would be MUCH appreciated. Have a great day!

Stay Brainy!

Which statement is true?
MissTica

Answer:

The correct answer is in an exothermic reaction the energy of the product is less than the energy of the reactants.

Explanation:

Exothermic reaction is a type of reaction that generates heat.As a result in case of an exothermic reaction the energy of the reactant is more than the energy of the product.

       That"s why the enthalpy change in an exothermic reaction is always positive .

To investigate the reactivity of metals a student uses four metals. Each time they added 1 g of the metal to 25 cm³ of sulfuric
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Volume of the sulfuric acid (25cm³), same mass of each metal (1g)

Explanation:

In an experiment, the CONTROL VARIABLE also known as constant is the variable that is kept unchanged for all groups in an experiment. This is done in order not to influence the outcome of the experiment.

In this case, students are trying to investigate the reactivity of four different metals. They added 1 g of each metal to 25cm³ of sulfuric acid and recorded the temperature change. Based on the explanation of control variable above, the VOLUME OF SULFURIC ACID (25cm³) and the MASS OF EACH METAL (1g) are the CONTROL VARIABLES because they are the same or unchanged in this experiment.

How many atoms are in 25.00 g of B.
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 1.393 *10^{24} \ atoms \ B}}

Explanation:

<u>1. Convert Grams to Moles</u>

Use the molar mass (found on the Periodic Table) to convert from grams to moles.

  • Boron (B): 10.81 g/mol

Use this value as a ratio.

\frac {10.81 \ g \ B }{1 \ mol \ B}

Multiply by the given number of grams.

25.00 \ g \ B *\frac {10.81 \ g \ B }{1 \ mol \ B}

Flip the ratio so the grams of boron cancel out.

25.00 \ g \ B *\frac {1  \ mol \ B }{10.81 \ g \ B}

25.00 *\frac {1  \ mol \ B }{10.81 }

\frac {25.00 \ mol \ B }{10.81 }=2.312673451 \ mol \ B

<u>2. Convert Moles to Atoms</u>

We use Avogadro's Number, 6.02*10²³: the number of particles (atoms, molecules, etc.) in 1 mole of a substance. In this case, the particles are atoms of boron.

\frac {6.02*10^{23} \ atoms \ B} {1 \ mol \ B}

Multiply by the number of moles we calculated.

2.312673451 \ mol \ B *\frac {6.02*10^{23} \ atoms \ B} {1 \ mol \ B}

The moles of boron cancel.

2.312673451  *\frac {6.02*10^{23} \ atoms \ B} {1 }

2.312673451  *6.02*10^{23} \ atoms \ B} =1.39269195*10^{24} \ atoms \ B

The original value of grams has 4 significant figures, so our answer should have the same. For the number we calculated, that is the thousandth place.

1.392\underline69195*10^{24} \ atoms \ B

The 6 tells us to round the 2 to a 3.

1.393 *10^{24} \ atoms \ B

25.00 grams of boron is equal to 1.393*10²⁴ atoms.
