Study Notes
Cell Membrane and Transport
- The main function of the cell membrane is to regulate the movement of substances in and out of the cell.
- Oxygen enters the cell through the process of diffusion.
- Sugars and amino acids enter the cell through the process of facilitated diffusion.
Solubility Rules
- According to the solubility rules, hydroxide salts with group 1 ions (e.g., NaOH, KOH) and Ca(OH)2 are soluble.
- Hydroxide salts with group 2 ions (e.g., Mg(OH)2, Ba(OH)2) are marginally soluble.
- Sulfide salts with group 1 ions (e.g., Na2S, K2S) and group 2 ions (e.g., MgS, CaS) are soluble.
- Sulfide salts with transition metal ions (e.g., CuS, ZnS) are slightly soluble.
- Chloride, bromide, and iodide salts are generally soluble, except for those with Ag+, Hg2+2, and Pb2+ ions.
- Salts with Ag+, Hg2+2, and Pb2+ ions are exceptions to the solubility rule for chloride, bromide, and iodide salts.
Studying That Suits You

Description
Test your knowledge on the selective permeability of cell membranes and the movement of small molecules and ions across the plasma membrane. Explore how nutrients enter the cell, waste products leave it, and the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide takes place.
