pH= -log[H+]
here there are 120 protons in the cell
number of moles of the protons= number of protons in the cell/ Avogadro number
Avagadro number= 6.02210^23
the number of moles of the protons= 120/(6.02210^23)=1.993
10^-22
Molarity= number of moles/ volume of in litres
molarity of H+= number of moles of H+/volume of the cell in litres
= 1.99310^-22/
2 X 10-17 L
= 9.965
10^-6 M
pH= -log[ 9.965
10^-6]
= 5
so the answer is 5

The graph below shows a firm's isoquants and isocosts. The firm is initially producing Q=20 with the cost minimizing combination of K and L, where Q is output, Kis capital and L is labor. Suppose the owner decides to expand production to Q=40. However, he signed a lease on the capital necessary to produce Q=20, which he cannot get out of in the short run. In order to...

Scientists can track the movement of proteins through the endomembrane system using an approach known as a pulse-chase experiment. This experiment involves the “pulse” phase: Cells are exposed to a high concentration of a radioactively labeled amino acids for a short period to “tag” proteins that are being synthesized. the “chase” phase: Any unincorporated (not used to make proteins) radioactively labeled amino acids are washed away and large amounts of the same, but unlabeled, amino acid are added. Only those...
