Ionic product of water?
It is the product of molar concentration of H* and OH-
What is the mechanism that restores the resting membrane voltage and intracellular ionic concentration?
repolarization
What is A bond that is 5 percent ionic is considered?
natural.
What happens to ionic compounds in the human body?
They are dissociated in the water from the organism, forming ions.
What is the Function of ammonium sulphate in protein extraction?
Ammonium sulfate precipitation is a method used to purify proteins by altering their solubility. It is a specific case of a more general technique known as salting out.Ammonium sulfate is commonly used as its solubility is so high that salt solutions with high ionic strength are allowed.The solubility of proteins varies according to the ionic strength of the solution, and hence according to the salt concentration. Two distinct effects are observed: at low salt concentrations, the solubility of the protein increases with increasing salt concentration (i.e. increasing ionic strength), an effect termed salting in. As the salt concentration (ionic strength) is increased further, the solubility of the protein begins to decrease. At sufficiently high ionic strength, the protein will be almost completely precipitated from the solution (salting out).

What ionic compound is in ketchup?
There are several different ones (including organic ionic compounds), but the one at the highest concentration is ordinary table salt (sodium chloride).
If the concentration of sodium ions in the fluid surrounding cells decrease and the concentration of the solutes inside the cell remain constant what will happen?
The cell will expand until the ionic concentration is the same inside as out (or the membrane fails and the cell "explodes").
How do ions maintain the structure of the lattice?
Opposites attract! eg. (+) = cation, (-) = anion IONIC LATTIce (+) (-) (+) (-) (-) (+) (-) (+) (+) (-) (+) (-) (-) (+) (-) (+)
What process transport pyruvic acid across the mitochondrial membrane from a high concentration to low concentration?
Active transport - since pyruvate is ionic is must use protein transporters, and ATP is required
What information is most useful to determine the solution that has the lower freezing point?
Probably the freezing coefficient, followed by the ionic concentration of the solute.
