Document Summary
Block 2 - lecture 5 - diffusion, osmosis and. Predict direction of net flux given information on the concentrations of a test compound in two adjacent compartments. For a single particle, discuss the relationship between time and net distance traveled by diffusion. Draw a graph showing the general relationship between net distance traveled by a particle and the length of time required to travel that distance. Understand why lipophilic particles cross membranes more readily than hydrophilic particles. Given the structures and overall characteristics of molecules predict which are more likely to passively diffuse across the membrane. Discuss the relationship between ph and diffusive flux of a weak acid or a weak base. Predict the influence of weak acids/weak bases in compartments of different ph. Calculate the following two given the concentration of its constituents: Given the osmotic concentration of two solutions, predict direction of osmotic water flux.
