Yоu discоver аn аlien аrtifact оn planet Zorbian and are able to extract living cells. Interestingly these cells only have one ion associated with their membrane potential. You find that the concentration of ion Q2+ is 10,000x higher on the outside of the cell compared to the inside. Using the Nernst Equation I provided in lecture, calculate the Equilibirum Potential for Q2+. = ____________mV. Hint: Remember this is log10.
