Interpretation:
To determine which ion besides
Concept Introduction:
The fluids of the body contain various ions in them and they are in varying concentrations in each of the fluids. These ions basically make up the fluid and are there for the specific functioning that is expected of the fluid in the efficient working of the body. Body fluids are categorized on the basis of the location of the body. The fluid which comprises aqueous medium inside the cell is known as intracellular fluids and a fluid that is present outside the surface of the cell is known as extracellular fluid. Fluid which fills the spaces between adjacent cells is known as interstitial cell.

- A child eats 10.0 g of paint containing 5.0% Pb. How many grams of the sodium salt of EDTA, Na4(EDTA)should he receive to bring the lead into solution as Pb EDTA?arrow_forwardwhat is the oxidation state of Al2Se3arrow_forwardUse the following table to answer the questions Ion Extracellular Concentration (mM) Intracellular Concentration (mM) Na+ 440 50 K+ 20 400 Cl- 560 52 Ca++ 10 1 Calculate the equilibrium potential for Na+, K+, Ca++, and Cl- ions? If the resting membrane potential is -65, give the direction of the flow of Na+, Ca++, K+, and Cl- ion. What will happen to the Cl- equilibrium potential, if one changes the extracellular chloride concentration from 560 mM to 100 mM? Give the direction of Cl- flow. What is the effect of addition of extracellular TTX and TEA on equilibrium potential? If one reduced the extracellular concentration of Na+ around a neuron, what would happen to the membrane potential? If one increased the extracellular concentration of K+ around a neuron, what would happen to the membrane potential?arrow_forward
