Final answer:

The Nernst potential for Cl- in DMEM at 37°C can be calculated using the Nernst equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Nernst potential for Cl- in DMEM at 37°C can be calculated using the Nernst equation:

Ecell = Eº - (RT/nF) * ln(Q)

Where:

- Ecell is the Nernst potential

- Eº is the standard potential

- R is the gas constant (8.314 J/mol·K)

- T is the temperature in Kelvin (37°C = 310.15 K)

- n is the number of electrons transferred (2 in this case)

- F is Faraday's constant (96,485 C/mol)

- Q is the reaction quotient

Substituting the values into the equation, you can calculate the Nernst potential for Cl- in DMEM at 37°C.
