24
Q

What equation is used to determine the ration of weak acid to its conjugate base at a given pH?

A

Henderson-Hasselbach

25
When the concentration of a weak acid and its conjugate base are equal, the pH is equal to ....
The pKa (Ka weak acids)
26
Nonionized drugs are _______ ________ and easily...

28
The degree of ionization or nonionization determines ...
Drug effectiveness.
29
What are the 3 steps of determination?

30
Weak acids become _____ nonionized as pH falls.
More (H+ increases) *Acid + Acid = nonionized*
31

33
Recognize a salt drug as the base form of a...
Weak acid. (Sodium pentobarbital)
34
Weak bases become _____ unionized as pH >.
More (H+ decreases) Base + Base = nonionized
35
Weak bases unite with _____ charged ions.
Negatively (Cl- SO4^2-)
36
