6 0

Answer:

15 protons

Explanation:

In a neutral atom (not an ion or isotope) the amount of protons will be the same as the atomic number and the number of electrons.

An ion will have different electron values.

An isotope will have a different number of neutrons and a different atomic mass.

Calculate the diffusive force (J) experienced by potassium in a cell where the concentration gradient is 35 mM, the membrane wid
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Diffusive force J = 9590

Explanation:

From the given information:

Concentration gradient C₁ - C₂ = 35 mM = 35 × 10⁻³ M

membrane width Δ x = 1 cm = 10⁻² m

Solubility S = 1

diffusive area A = 10

Temperature T = 1° C = (273 + 1 )K = 274 K

Using the expression:

\text {diffusive force J}  = \dfrac{C_1-C_2}{\Delta x }\times T \times S \times A

J  = \dfrac{35 \times 10^{-3}}{10^{-2} }\times 274 \times 1 \times 10

J  = 3.5 \times 274 \times 1 \times 10

Diffusive force J = 9590
