Gibbs- Donnan equilibrium
posted on: 10/1/2003 7:34:55 PM

could somebody please help me answer this question about the Gibbs Donnan equilibrium.
We start with 10 Na ions and 10 Cl ions in each of the plasma and
interstitial fluid compartments. Into the plasma compartment we add 60 negatively charged protein molecules together with 60 Na ions to maintain electrical neutrality. According to the Gibbs- Donnan equilibrium what is the final distribution of ions?

An equilibrium established between a charged, immobile colloid (such as clay, ion exchange resin or cytoplasm) and a solution of electrolyte.

Characteristics: ions of like charge to the colloid tend to be excluded, ions of opposite charge tend to be attracted, the colloid compartment is electrically polarized relative to the solution in the same direction as the colloid charges (a Donnan potential) and the osmotic pressure is higher in the colloid compartment.

That's difficult for me to figure out.
