At 37 °C the equilibrium concentration of Ca2+ inside a cell is 0.098 M and outside is 0.019 M. The cell membrane is permeable to Ca2+ and Cl–. The only ion present in addition to Ca2+ and Cl– is a protein (Prin+/–) inside the cell. The protein holds a single positive or negative charge. The Cl– is at equilibrium across the membrane while the protein is inside the cell and cannot permeate the membrane. What is the concentration of Prin+/–...
At 37 °C the equilibrium concentration of Ca2+ inside a cell is 0.067 M and outside is 0.034 M. The cell membrane is permeable to Ca2+ and Cl–. The only ion present in addition to Ca2+ and Cl– is a protein (Prin+/–) inside the cell. The protein holds a single positive or negative charge. The Cl– is at equilibrium across the membrane while the protein is inside the cell and cannot permeate the membrane. What is the concentration of Prin+/–...
Neuron cells generate electrical signals by concentration gradients across membranes. Assuming a potassium ion concentration of 0.00380 M inside the cell, and a concentration of 0.145 M outside the cell, what is the electrical potential across the cell membrane?

12. At equilibrium the Na+ concentrations are 100 mM outside and 10 mM inside the cell, what is the voltage difference across the membrane?
The fluids inside and outside a cell are good conductors separated by the cell wall, which is a dielectric. Thus the cell has capacitance; charge may be stored on its inner and outer surfaces (see the figure below). It is a good approximation to treat the thin charged layer as a parallel-plate capacitor. Typically the wall is 9.50 x 10-9 m thick and has a dielectric constant of 5.00. (everybody's responses to this question before were incorrect so I need...

The osteoclast proton pump acidifies the outside of the cell to pH3 from a pH value inside the cell of 7. The potential across the osteoclast plasma membrane is 60mV (inside more negative). Given intracellular concentrations of ADP = 1mM and phosphate = 0.5 mM, what ATP concentration is necessary to drive the transport of two moles of protons outside the cell per mole of ATP hydrolyzed? The temperature is 37°C, and the standard free energy change for ATP hydrolysis...
The concentration of potassium ions inside a nerve cell is around 25 times that outside the cell. Calculate the potential difference between inside and outside a nerve cell, if it depends only on this ionic imbalance. For simplicity, pretend that the temperature = 25°C (standard) even though body temperature is higher than that. (10 marks)
