The Nernst Equation is: E = 60 mV log10 ([Xextracellular/Xintracellular]). Given this, the equilibrium potential for a given ion would be increased with an increase in its intracellular concentration.
Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)
False
Since in the Nernst Equation, the intracellular concentration is found in the denominator of a fraction, it follows that an INCREASE in this number would result in a DECREASE in the total E.
