Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The flux of nutrient molecules down a given concentration gradient has to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Simple diffusion: The moment of molecules move down the concentration gradient is known as simple diffusion.
Facilitated diffusion: The moment of molecules against the (move up) the concentration gradient and changes the shape of the membrane is known as facilitated diffusion.
Fermi diffusion law: The density of states tells us how many states exist at a given energy (E), The fermi function f(E) specified how many of the existing states at the energy E will be filled with electrons. The function f(E) specifies, under equilibrium conditions the probability that an available state at an energy (E) will be occupied by an electrons. It is a probability distribution function.
Fermi equation:
(b)
Interpretation:
The amount of molecules passing through the given area in the given time has to be calculated.

- Nucleophilic Aromatic Substitution: What is the product of the reaction? What is the name of the intermediate complex? *See imagearrow_forwardPredict the final product. If 2 products are made, list which should be “major” and “minor” *see attachedarrow_forwardNucleophilic Aromatic Substitution: What is the product of the reaction? *see imagearrow_forward
- Show the correct sequence to connect the reagent to product. * see imagearrow_forwardThe answer here says that F and K have a singlet and a doublet. The singlet and doublet are referring to the H's 1 carbon away from the carbon attached to the OH. Why don't the H's two carbons away, the ones on the cyclohexane ring, cause more peaks on the signal?arrow_forwardDraw the Birch Reduction for this aromatic compound and include electron withdrawing groups and electron donating groups. *See attachedarrow_forward
