1)Intense exercise causes acidosis. Their blood pH is 7.1. Knowing that [CO2] is roughly comparable to [H2CO3], what is the[CO2] of their blood if the [HCO-3] = 10mM? (pKa of carbonic acid (H2CO3) is 6.1)
2)Alkalosis is when the pH of the blood rises to > 7.45. It is often causes due to prolonged vomiting, side effect of diuretics, or hyperventilation. It can cause muscle tremors and dizziness. What is the concentration of [HCO-3] assuming that [CO2] is comparable to [H2CO3] and equal to 1 mM?

Explain the role of buffers in the control of blood pH Question What are the causes of metabolic alkalosis? Select the correct answer below: O Too much CO2 is eliminated, dropping the CO2 pressure below 38 torr and resulting in a rise in blood pH. This can be caused by hyperventilation, fever, excessive exercise, or reactions to certain drugs. O The body eliminates too much acid or produces too much base for the renal system to compensate, resulting in a...

1. An equilibrium mixture of CH.COH and CHCO,has a pH of 4.8. The equino equation is given below: CH3CO.H (aq) + H20 (1) = CH,CO2 (aq) + HO* (aq) Answer the following questions when the pH of the solution is adjusted to 2.8. 4. What happens to the concentration of H3O+ (aq) when pH changes from 4.8 to 2.87 b. In which direction does the equilibrium shift in the equation? c. What happens to the concentration of CH,CO2H (aq) when...

Case Study Section 1 – pH Based on “The Case of the Mortified Mom: Acids, pH and Buffers” by Terry Platt (National Center for Case Study Teaching in Science) The Patient: Paramedics were called to the home of the Mathews family because their 3-year old daughter, Molly, had gotten into the medicine cabinet and consumed a large number of aspirin tablets. When the paramedics arrived Molly had vomited several times, with bits of undissolved tablets visible, but seemed sleepy, almost...
