The blood is the buffer combination of carbonic acid and bicarbonate ion. Compute the blood with a pH of 7.42.
(1) Determine the ratio of [H2CO3] to [HCO3‾ ]?
(2) Determine the pH become if 18% of the bicarbonate ions are transformed to carbonic acid?
(3) Determine the pH become if 20.% of the carbonic acid molecules are transformed to the bicarbonate ions?
