Test 4 Prep Flashcards
Maintaining pH:
Show CO2 dissolving in water.
CO2(g) + H2O(l) ⇔ H2CO3(l)
Maintaining pH:
Show the dissociation of carbonic acid in water.
H2CO3 + H2O ⇔ HCO3- + H3O+
Acidosis:
What happens to the pH of the blood under acidosis conditions?
The pH of blood is lower than normal
Acidosis:
What happens to the concentration of H3O+ under acidosis conditions?
As a result, what happens to CO2 in eq. 1?
H3O+ Increases, as a result CO2 increases.
How do the lungs compensate the change in PCO2 in acidosis conditions?
How does cistic fibrosis upset blood buffer system to cause acidosis?
The lungs exhale out excess CO2 by increasing respiration.
CO2 decreases due to mucus on the lungs
Alkalosis:
What happens to the pH of the blodd under alkalosis conditions?
The pH of the blood is higher than normal
Alkalosis:
What happens to the concnetration of H3O+ under alkalosis conditions?
H3O+ decreases
Alkalosis = ________
Acidosis = _________
Alkalosis = high pH (more basic)
Acidosis = low pH (more acidic)
Equation 1:
Equation 2:
Kidneys only use equation ____.
1. CO2(g) + H2O(l) ⇔ H2CO3(l)
2. H2CO3 + H2O ⇔ HCO3- + H3O+
(2)Two. Kidneys dont use gas exchange.

- 1 atm = 14.7 psi
- 1 atm = 760 torr
- 1 atm = 760 mmHg
- Isotonic = 0.95%NaCl & 5.5% Glucose
- Hypertonic = Crenation
- Hypotonic = Hemolysis
- 5.5% NaCl = _____ & _____
- Pure water = _____ & _____
- 10% Glucose = ____ & _____
- 5.5% NaCl = Hypertonic & Crenation
- Pure water = Hypotonic & Hemolysis (H2O: 0%)

w/v% =
ppt =
ppm =
ppb =
molarity =
meq/L =
What is an equivalent (Eq)?
w/v% = g/mL x 100
ppt = g/mL x 103
ppm = g/mL x 106
ppb = g/mL x 109
molarity = moles solute/L solute
milliequivalents/litre
The # of moles of charges that one mole of solute contributes to a solution. (applies to ions)
Provide the names:
HNO3(aq)
HCL(aq)
CaCO3
dihydrogenphosphate ion
Phosphoric acid
Nitric Acid
Hydrochloric Acid
Calcium Carbonate
H2PO4-
PO4 <em> </em>(no charge on acids)
Which one is the stronger acid and which acid will have the lowest pH. Explain.
CH3CO2H Ka = 1.8 x 10-5
H2CO3 = Ka = 4.4 x 10-7
CH3CO2H Ka = 1.8 x 10-5
Stronger acid.
H2CO3 = Ka = 4.4 x 10-7
Weaker acid, Lower pH, high levels of H30+
Pvapor = Patm
What happens when Pvapor and Patm are equal?
when Pvapor and Patm are equal, boiling point is reached.
How does an Autocalve work?
An autoclave produces pressures greater than 1 atm, so water boils above 100°C. At these temps, most infectious agents are destroyed.
How does a Hyperbaric Chamber work?
Patm increases and the solubility of O2 inside blood stream increases.
Bacteria cannot survive in high levels of O2
Explain how soap can be hydrophobic and hydrophilic.
What is it called when you have hydrophilic and hydrophobic compounds?
Through double displacement the hydrophilic compound will become hydrophobic and water soluble.
Amphipathic
Explain the process of kidney dialysis.
- Blood taken out of body through semipermeable tube
- Blood is suspended into an isotonic solution (which is same as red blood cells, 0.95% NaCL and 5.5% glucose)
- Through diffusion urea goes from high to low concentration in blood.
- Protein stays because it is too large to pass through the semipermeable membrane, and other ions are compensated.
- When urea concentration is low enough it is sent back into the body.
Where is the average atmospheric pressure higher?
The closer to sea level (or below the higher)
As altitude increases Patm decreases, and there are less molecules.
Questions about altitude have to do with what law?
Daltons law of partial pressure
Some runners train in high altitudes. Why?
PO2 is low and this leads to increased concentrations of red blood cells.
So as to increase intake of O2
increased RBC increases performance
If camping in the mountain why does it take longer to cook a pot of noodles than it does at sea level?
- Patm is decreased at higher altitudes
- Liquid boils when patm equals pressure of water vapor
- In the mountains Patm is decreased and P water vapor is decreased so you reach BP at a lower temperature (lower than 100°C)
