‘.. the sum of the electrical pressure difference and the osmotic pressure difference (i.e. the electrochemical potential difference) of protons’ [1] links to non-ohmic flux-force relationships between proton leak and protonmotive force pmF. This is experimentally established, has direct consequences on mitochondrial physiology, but is theoretically little understood [2,3]. Here I distinguish pressure from potential differences (diffusion: Δμ_H⁺ or Δ_dF_H⁺; electric: ΔΨ or Δ_elF_p⁺), to explain non-ohmic flux-force relationships on the basis of four thermodynamic theorems. (1) Einstein’s diffusion equation [4] explains the concentration gradient (dc/dz) in Fick’s law as the product of chemical potential gradient (the vector force and resistance determine the velocity v of a particle) and local concentration c. This yields the chemical pressure gradient (van’t Hoff): d_dΠ/dz = RT∙dc/dz. Flux [5] is the product of v and c; c varies with force. Therefore, flux-force relationships are non-linear. (2) The pmF is not a vector force; the gradient is replaced by a pressure difference, and local concentration by a distribution function or free activity α. Flux is a function of α and force, J_d = -u_d∙α∙Δ_dF_X = -u_d∙Δ_dΠ_X [6]. (3) At Δ_elF_p⁺ = -Δ_dF_H+, the diffusion pressure of protons, Δ_dΠ_H+ = RT∙Δc_H+ [Pa=J∙m^-3] is balanced by electric pressure, maintained by counterions of H⁺. Diffusional and electric pressures are isomorphic, additive, and yield protonmotive pressure pmp. (4) The dependence of proton leak on pmF varies with Δ_elF_p⁺ versus Δ_dF_H+, in agreement with experimental evidence. The flux-force relationship is concave at high mitochondrial volume fractions, but near-exponential at small mt-matrix volume ratios. Linear flux-pmp relationships imply a near-exponential dependence of the proton leak on the pmF ([7]; added 2022-07-04).

''the sum of the '''electrical pressure difference''' and the '''osmotic pressure difference''' (i.e. the electrochemical potential difference) of protons''’ [1] links to non-ohmic flux-force relationships between proton leak and protonmotive force (pmf). This is experimentally established, has direct consequences on mitochondrial physiology, but is theoretically little understood [2,3].

(1) Einstein’s diffusion equation [4] explains the [[concentration]] gradient (d''c''/d''z'') in Fick’s law as the product of chemical potential gradient (the vector force and resistance determine the velocity, ''v'', of a particle) and local concentration, ''c''. This yields the chemical [[pressure]] gradient (van’t Hoff): d<sub>d</sub>''Π''/d''z'' = ''RT''∙d''c''/d''z''. [[Flux]] [5] is the product of ''v'' and ''c''; ''c'' varies with force. Therefore, flux-force relationships are non-linear. (2) The pmf is not a vector force; the gradient is replaced by a pressure difference, and local concentration by a distribution function or free activity, ''α''. Flux is a function of ''α'' and force, ''J''<sub>d</sub> = ''b''∙''α''∙Δ<sub>d</sub>''F''<sub>B</sub> = -''b''∙Δ<sub>d</sub>''Π''<sub>B</sub> [6].

Diffusional and electric pressures are isomorphic, additive, and yield protonmotive pressure (pmp).
