What would happen if the concentration of H plus ions were higher inside the mitochondria than outside the mitochondria when the channel opened?
What would happen if the concentration of H+ ions were higher inside a mitochondrion than outside the mitochondrion when a channel opened? H+ ions would flow out of the mitochondrion. What is it called when vesicles are used to move substances out of the cell?
What happens if the concentration of H+ ion is increased in the solution?
When concentration of [H+] increased then the value of pH is decreases.
What happens if there are more H+ ions?
High concentrations of hydrogen ions yield a low pH (acidic substances), whereas low levels of hydrogen ions result in a high pH (basic substances).
What happens to an enzyme when the H+ ion concentration increases?
The concentration of hydrogen ions is another environmental condition that can change the rate of product formation in an enzyme catalyzed chemical reaction. Anything which alters the shape of the enzyme can also affect the active site of the enzyme and also change the ability to interact with the substrate.
What type of transport takes place when a protein allows an ion to enter a cell?
Facilitated diffusion
Facilitated diffusion therefore allows polar and charged molecules, such as carbohydrates, amino acids, nucleosides, and ions, to cross the plasma membrane. Two classes of proteins that mediate facilitated diffusion are generally distinguished: carrier proteins and channel proteins.
Which type of transport requires energy to move sodium ions from a low concentration across?
During active transport, substances move against the concentration gradient, from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. This process is “active” because it requires the use of energy (usually in the form of ATP).
What effect does the concentration of H+?
Answer: The concentration of H+ (aq) ions determines the acidicnature of solution. Hence, acidity of a solution increases with increases inconcentration of H+ (aq) ions and vice versa.
What effect does the concentration of H plus ions have on the nature of the solution?
The nature of the solution is determined by the concentration of hydrogen ions. If the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution increases, the solution becomes acidic; conversely, if the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution decreases, the solution becomes basic.
What effect does an increase in concentration of H ions in a solution have on the pH of a solution?
As the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution increase, the more acidic the solution becomes. As the level of hydroxide ions increases the more basic, or alkaline, the solution becomes.
Which is higher in concentration H+ ions or OH ions?
Hydrogen ion concentration is more conveniently expressed as pH, which is the logarithm of the reciprocal of the hydrogen ion concentration in gram moles per liter. Thus, in a neutral solution the hydrogen ion (H+) and the hydroxyl ion (OH−) concentrations are equal, and each is equal to 10−7.
How does ion concentration affect enzyme activity?
The ionic strength may also affect the activity of an enzyme by changing the stability and solubilities of the enzyme as well as those of the substrates. The effects of salts on stability becomes more important with more hydrophilic enzymes.
What will happen to the enzyme reaction if the substrate concentration decreases?
One Enzyme, One Reaction The molecule to which an enzyme binds is called a substrate. In general, one enzyme binds to one substrate in order to lower the activation energy for one chemical reaction. This means that the rate of reactions will decrease as enzyme concentration decreases.
Why are H + ions higher in the thylakoid?
Concentration of h+ ions higher inside the thylakoid than it is on the outside. The difference in h+ ion concentration is a called a chemiosmotic gradient which stores potential energy. Therefore the ions flow through the channel by diffusion
What happens to hydroxide as the H + decreases?
As the [H +] ion decreases the [OH −] ion increase. The Keq for water is 10−14 This means that the Hydrogen ion concentration times the Hydroxide concentration must always be the same 10−14 [H +] ×[OH −] = 10−14 This means that the two ions are inversely proportional.
How does the concentration of H + affect the chloroplasts?
If the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) outside of the thylakoids were equal to the concentration of H+ inside the thylakoids, how would it affect the chloroplasts? A. The chloroplasts would release excess O2. B. The chloroplasts would be unable to generate ATP. C.
What happens to the OH − in a solution?
As the H + in a solution decreases, what happens to the OH −? As the [H +] ion decreases the [OH −] ion increase. The Keq for water is 10−14 This means that the Hydrogen ion concentration times the Hydroxide concentration must always be the same 10−14
