What happens to the hydrogen ion concentration as you decrease the pH?

Hydrogen ion concentration increases.


Where does the light reaction happens?

Light reactions occur in the cells chloroplast


What happens to the number of hydrogen ions if a solution becomes more acidic?

The concentration of hydrogen in a solution increases as the pH of the solution becomes more acidic.


What happens to the concentration of hydrogen ions in a 1 moles per liter solution of hydrochloric acid on repeated dilution?

The concentration become more and more lower.


The enzymes for the light dependent reactions are found in the thylakoid membrane while the Calvin cycle happens in the what?

thylakoid membrane and stroma :)


What happens if you put hydrogen peroxide with boiled water?

Depending on the concentration of the hydrogen peroxide, (if low enough) it will just decompose into water and oxygen gas. If the hydrogen peroxide is high enough in concentration it will just heat up and mix with the water (most likely the first will occur).


If the hyrdoxide ion concentartion increases what happens to the hydrogen ion concentration?

The Hydrogen ion concentration decreases. Remember that these two ion concentrations are inversely proportional, in formula: [H+].[OH-]= 1.0*10-14 or pH + pOH = 14.


What happens when sucrose is taken up by active transport?

Outside the cell is high concentration of hydrogen ions and low concentration of sucrose. Inside, is the opposite, low concentration of hydrogen ions, and high concentrations of sucrose. Cells use ATP to pump a hydrogen ion across the cell membrane, against the concentration gradient, and when the hydrogen ion goes to re-enter, it goes through a Sucrose-proton cotransporter. This means that the hydrogen ion (proton) take a sucrose molecule with it when it goes though the membrane.


What happens to electrons in the thylakoid membrane?

they return to their original energy levels.


What happens when electrons are passed the electron transport chain?

Hydrogen ions are pumped across the mitochondria's inner membrane producing a concentration gradient


Does ATP formation happen in the stroma or thylakoid space?

It happens in both places depending on the reaction.


How does the pOH differ from pH?

pOH happens to be the negative log of hydroxide ion' s concentration while pH is the negative log of hydrogen ion's concentration. pH is used to measure the acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
