Nernst Equation at Equilibrium: 8:10 Generation of membrane potential. Steve Wright, Univ. of Arizona Col. of Med. at Equilibrium: Electrical Force = Chemical Force (electrical ‘voltage’ = chemical ‘gradient’) VKzKF = -RT ln [K+]in [K+]out Maybe lightning bolt for “electrical force” Bubbling beaker/flask for “chemical force” VK = ln [K+]in [K+]out -RT zKF Nernst Equation
