Transcribed Image Text:

Gastric juice is made up of substances secreted from parietal cells, chief cells, and mucous-secreting cells. The cells secrete HCI, proteolytic enzyme zymogens, mucin, and intrinsic factor. The pH of gastric juice is acidic, between 1-3. If the pH of gastric juice is 1.1, what is the amount of energy (AG) required for the transport of hydrogen ions from a cell (internal pH of 7.4) into the stomach lumen? Assume that the potential difference across the membrane separating the cell and the interior of the stomach is -60.0 mV (inside of the cell is negative relative to the lumen of the stomach). Assume that the temperature is 37 °C. The Faraday constant is 96.5 kJ/(V-mol) and the gas constant is 8.314 x 10-3 kJ/(mol·K). Express your answer in kilojoules per mole. AG = kJ/mol Gastric juice is made up of substances secreted from parietal cells, chief cells, and mucous-secreting cells.
