BIO ENG 110 Study Guide - Midterm Guide: Reflection Coefficient, Mannose, Pr Interval
Document Summary
Bioe 110: biomedical physiology for engineers. Consider a chamber (at 25 c) consisting of two 1l solutions of mannose (mw 180 g/mol) separated by a semipermeable membrane. Solution: remember that the equation for osmotic pressure is given by. The osmotic pressure, given by: 1 , of the more dilute chamber (chamber 1) is. Since 101. 3 kpa is equal to 1 atm, the osmotic pressure is approximately 18. 5 kpa. We also know the osmotic pressure gradient across the membrane, 167 kpa. Since there is one 1l in each compartment, there"s 0. 0999 mol in each compartment. Solution: remember that flow rate as a function of resistance is given by q = You were provided the osmotic pressure gradient (i. e. pressure difference) in part a. The resistance is also provided. Consider a newly discovered microorganism and the transport of hypothetical ions a+, b2+, The table below lists the intracellular and extracellular concentration of each ion as well as each ion"s relative conductance.
