• If membrane permeable to K+ only:– What are the forces
that act on K+?– When would diffusion
of K+ stops?– When diffusion stops
that is equilibrium potential
The concept of equilibrium potential

At rest neither K+ nor Na+ are at equilibrium.
There is continuous leakage of K+ to outside and of Na+ to inside,
But the concentration gradient is maintained
through continuous activity of Na+ - K+ pump which exactly counterbalances the effect of diffusion of ions.
RMP remains constant: passive forces = active forces
At resting membrane potential

• Diffusion of K+ from inside to outside
• Na + - K+ pump
• Negatively charged proteins inside
