Answer:

-1.08\times 10^{23} mol/s

Explanation:

We are given that

Diffusion coefficient,D=1.5\times 10^{-18} m^2/s

Thickness of membrane,dx=12nm=12\times 10^{-9} m

1 nm=10^{-9} m

Area,A=12\times 12=144nm^2=144\times 10^{-18} m^2

Concentration differences,dc=0.60 mol/dm^3=0.60\times 1000=600mol/m^3

We have to find the flow rate of sodium ions.

Flow rate,\frac{dn}{dt}=-DA\frac{dc}{dx}

Using the formula

\frac{dn}{dt}=-\frac{1.5\times 10^{-18}\times (144\times 10^{-18})\times 600}{12\times 10^{-9}}=-1.08\times 10^{23} mol/s

\frac{dn}{dt}=-1.08\times 10^{23} mol/s

Describe how spead, velocity and<br> brcoloration are related.
Flura [38]

Answer:

Speed, being a scalar quantity, is the rate at which an object covers distance. The average speed is the distance (a scalar quantity) per time ratio. On the other hand, velocity is a vector quantity; it is direction-aware. Velocity is the rate at which the position changes.

How to determine the relative rates of reactant disappearance and product appearance using reaction stoichiometry
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

For example, the relative rate of a reaction at 20 seconds will be 1/20 or 0.05 s -1, while the average rate of reaction over the first 20 seconds will be the change in mass over that period, divided by the change in time.
