Acid Base Flashcards
What is the henderson hassalbach equativon
pH= Pka +log (A-) /(HA)
what is the normal blood pH
7.35 - 7.45
what is the noraml cytoplasmic pH
6.9- 7.4
how is Correct pH maintained
chemical buffering
regulation of blood CO 2by lungs
regulation of blood HCO3 by kidney
what is the faster way to maintain correct pH
chemical buffering
what is the slowest way to maintain correct pH
regulation of blood HCO3 by kindey
what is a buffer
soltuion of weak acid adn conguate base
if pH is equal to pKa then what
weak acid in 50% dissociated
if pH is less than pKa then what
acid form predominates
if pH is great than pKa then what
base form predominates
when do weak acids buffer best
at pH near their pKa
what does buffering capacity depend on
conc of weak acid adn cognate base
what is the main intracellular buffer
phosphate buffer system
what is the main buffer system in the blood
bicabonate CO2 buffer
an increase of PP of CO2 results in what
reduces pH
