In dog skeletal muscle, the extracellular and intracellular concentration of Na+ are 150 mM and 12 mM, and those of K+ are 2.7 mM and 140 mM, respectively. Calculate the total free energy change as 3 Na+ are transported out and 2 K+ are transported in by the Na+-K+ pump. Assume that the temperature is 25°C and the membrane potential is –60 mV. Give your answer in kJ/mol to 1 decimal place. using delta G=RTln(c/c)+zfv

The concentration of K+ ions in the intracellular fluid of a nerve cell is approximately 361.669 mM, but in the extracellular fluid the K+ concentration is 20.15 mM. Given that the electric potential difference inside and outside the cell is given by φ (inside) - φ(outside) = –70.0 mV, calculate the Gibbs energy change (to the zeroth decimal place in Joules) for the transfer of 1.00 mol of K+ ion against the concentration gradient at 37.8oC.
