Assume that the conversion of oxidized ubiquinone to reduced ubiquinone by dehydrogenase occurs on the matrix side

Question:

Assume that the conversion of oxidized ubiquinone to reduced ubiquinone by dehydrogenase occurs on the matrix side of the inner mitochondrial membrane and that its oxidation by cytochrome c reductase occurs on the intermembrane-space side of the membrane. What are the consequences of this arrangement for the generation of the H+ gradient across the membrane?
