Is there a molar mass of 4.0 PH buffer?

Ph gives the hint about the proton gradient of the solution as pH=-log[H+] we need the inforamtion of the molecular composition of the solution to know about the molar mass.

What is the chemical opposite of a base?

YES Base: pH 14 Neutral: pH 7 Acid: pH 0


If you have a lower pH will you have higher proton concentration?

Yes. The pH scale is an inverse log scale of the [H].


How is the structure of a well adapted for the activities it carries out?

mitochondria has convoluted membranes that maximize surface area so that more ATPase (enzyme for producing ATP) can be placed for H+ to be pumped through in order to make ATP. Its double membrane structure allows for it to regulate its internal pH to create a proton gradient that is different from the pH of the cytoplasm of the cell. Connection to cytoskeleton allows it to move to areas where more ATP are needed. i got that from yahooanswers.com. :) hope it helped!


What creteria is used for chosing an indicator in acid base titration?

pH range of indicator should be in the rapid pH gradient.


Why does Acid has a low pH and a high proton concentration?

What is the pH of a red blood cell?

Is water an acid or a base?

At pH 7 water is neutral. But... water is amphoteric- it can act as an acid or a base if the pH of 7 is disrupted. its acidic or base like properties depend on whether it is receiving or donating a proton. (acids-proton donars, bases-proton acceptors.


What has more hydrogen ions acidic or basic solutions?

A hydrogen ion is just a proton, H+. The pH of a solution depends on proton concentration, pH = -log of H+ concentration. Therefore, the greater the number of protons present in solution, the lower the pH number, and the more acidic the solution.


What happens if you don't have any phospholipid?

There will be non systematic movement of sustances across the plasma membrane . The cell in my body cannot maintain the optimal pH value and concentration gradient of ions that are suitable for the cell activities . I think i would die if i don't't have any phospholipid , don't you ?


What portion of the mitochondria has the lowest pH?

According to another answer to a similar question here on this site, "The intermembrane space has the lowest pH, highest concentration of H+, due to the gradient created by the electron transport chain."
