Model experiment illustrating the development of resting potential (with Cobra4)

Product No: P4010462

Principle and tasks

The potential difference between two electrolyte concentrations separated by a membrane (cellophane or cation permeable) is detected by two silver chloride electrodes and measured with a mV meter. The measured and calculated values are compared.

What we can learn about

  • Selective ion permeability of membranes
  • Resting potential
  • Diffusion potential
  • Asymmetry potential
  • Silver chloride electrodes
  • Ion pump
