You have a 1.50 cm diameter sphere that you would like to have plated with chromium metal. How long will it take to electroplate a 50.0 micron thick coating onto the sphere using Cr+3 and a current of 0.750 amps? The density of chromium is 7.2 g/cm3. 1 micron = 1.00×10–4 cm.[hint: Calculate the difference in volume of the coated and uncoated spheres and then use the density information to determine your answer.]Time Required = Answer minutes
A certain single ion channel is selectively permeable to K+ and has a resistance of 1.15 GΩ , therefore a current of potassium ions through the channel is possible. During an experiment, the channel is open for approximately 1.50 ms while the voltage across the channel is maintained at 89.5 mV. How many K+ ions, ?, travel through the channel during this time?
