More acid/base homeostatis

        Help!  

Question
Answer
Chemical substances that donate hydrogen ion (H+)   Acids  
🗑
Chemical substances that accept hydrogen ion (H+)   Bases  
🗑
a measurement of the concentration of free ions in the body   pH  
🗑
Produced during exercise   lactic acid  
🗑
When H+ increases, acidity increases, pH   decreases  
🗑
When H+ decreases, acidity decreases, pH   increases  
🗑
Because there is more ______ _______, the pH of venous blood is slightly lower than arterial blood   carbonic acid  
🗑
The lower the pH, the more   acid is present  
🗑
pH of arterial blood   7.35-7.45  
🗑
pH of venous blood   7.35  
🗑
Interstitial fluid pH   7.35  
🗑
pH of the stomach   1.2-3.0  
🗑
The pH often increases after eating a large meal due to   the buffering effect of the food  
🗑
The pH of the small intestine is slightly basic because of   The presence of bicarbonate ions  
🗑
Based on diet and metabolic state, the pH of urine varies from   4.5-8.0  
🗑
During acid-base homeostasis the pH of arterial blood is   7.35-7.45  
🗑
strong acids release all of their H+ in water such as   HCl  
🗑
The stomach contains an aquaeous solution of HCl and is the only example of a _________ _______ in the body   strong acid  
🗑
Acids that release all of their H+ when dissolved in water   strong acids  
🗑
a weak acid   H2CO3 = carbonic acid  
🗑
When a weak acid is added to water it does not completely   dissociate (ie carbonic acid pH=4.5)  
🗑
dissociates   The separation of acids, bases, and salts, when dissolved in water  
🗑
Another weak acid released during exercise, but is a stronger weak acid than Carbonic acid   lactic acid = pH 2.5  
🗑
pH of HCl   1.0  
🗑
Basic solutions are sometimes called   Alkalines  
🗑
While there are both strong and weak bases, only _______bases are found in the body   weak bases  
🗑
When water molecules lose H+, OH- (hydroxide) remains, which increases the   pH  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
