The pH of blood plasma is 7.40. The principal buffer system is HCO3?/H2CO3. Calculate the ratio [HCO3?]/[H2CO3] in blood plasma. (Ka of H2CO3, carbonic acid, is 4.5 × 10?7) Enter your answer in the provided box.
The pH of blood constituents of the bicarbonate buffering system, pKa and ratio of Bicarbonate to carbonic acid is releted to the Henderson–Hasselbalch equation as:
pH = pKacarbonic acid + log10 [HCO-3 / H2CO3]
Since pKa = - log10 Ka
Buffer reaction is :
H2CO3 ?
HCO-3 + H+
Steps:
Given pH of blood plasma: 7.40
Ka of H2CO3 : 4.5 X 107
Find : ratio [HCO3-]/[H2CO3]
1.Put the all values given in H. H. equation then
pH = pKacarbonic acid + log10 [HCO-3 / H2CO3]
7.40 = - log10 (4.5 X 107) + log10 [HCO-3 / H2CO3]
7.40 + log10 (4.5 X 107) = log10 [HCO-3 / H2CO3]
7.40 + log10 (4.5) + 7 log10 10 = log10 [HCO-3 / H2CO3]
7.40 + 0.6532 + 7 ( log10 10 = 1) = log10 [HCO-3 / H2CO3]
15.0532 = log10 [HCO-3 / H2CO3]
log10 [HCO-3 / H2CO3] = 15.0532
[HCO-3 / H2CO3] = Anti log (15.0532)
[HCO-3 / H2CO3] = 1130316324738697.8
hence [HCO-3 / H2CO3] = 11.30 X 1014

One of the most important buffering systems in the biological realm is the carbonic acid (H2CO3)/carbonate ion (HCO3- ) system that maintains the pH of blood plasma to a relatively constant value. In blood at 37°C, the Ka of carbonic acid is 8x10-8. Suppose that the concentrations of the buffer components in the blood plasma are: [HCO3-] = 0.24 M and [H2CO3] = .12 M. Calculate the pH of blood.
