🗑
Hydronium   H30+ we look at it as H+ or acidd  
🗑
Hydroxide   OH-  
🗑
Tap H20 pH is less than 7 because   more acidic because if it's in the atmosphere CO2 dissolves in it. CO2 + H20 = H2CO3 or carbonic acid  
🗑

🗑
Acid definition   any substance that when dissolved in water, gives the solution a pH > 7. (b/c gives up H+ ion, H+ ion causes acidity)  
🗑
Acids are tyipcally (characteristics)   water-souble and sour tasting  
🗑
Arabic Azait means   oil, viscous. ACID  
🗑
Latin acere means   sour - ACID  
🗑
Acid reactions   able to give up proton (H+) to a base or accept an unshared pair of electrons from a base.  
🗑
Acid reacts with a base in neutralized reaction (H20) to form   a salt  
🗑
Salt is   an ionic compound composed of cation (+, Na) and an anion (-, CL) which ends up being neutral or no net charge.  
🗑
Salt consists of a base and an   acid  
🗑
NH3 + HCL (ammonia and hydrocloric acid) = ?   NH4CL (ammonium chloride) which is neutral  
🗑
If chemical compound absorbs a hydronium (H+) ion (or is a proton acceptor)   it is an alkaline  
🗑

🗑
A base will reduce   the concentration of H+ ions  
🗑
Bases are   less viscous than acid, have soapy touch, and bitter tasting  
🗑

🗑
Strong acid will   approaches 1, dissociates quickly  
🗑
When a base is poured into water, it gives up   OH  
🗑
Neutralization   mixing an acicd and base together (form pure H20 and salt)  
🗑
If you have a strong acid and strong base pH =   pH = 7  
🗑
If you have weak acid and weak base pH =   which ever is stronger, if acid is stronger, pH > 7, if base is stronger pH < 7.  
🗑
Conjugate pairs   only differ by a proton (or H+). Each acid has a conjugate base, and vice versa  
🗑
HCL is conjugate pair because   H+ acid, and CL- base  
🗑
The key to regulating pH iss   regulating hydrogen (H+) ion concentration  
🗑
H+ ions are normally regulated by   buffer systems  
🗑
Extracellular fluid (ECF) is buffered by   HCO3/CO2 renal & lungs  
🗑
Intracellular fluid (ICF) is buffered by   protiens and PO4  
🗑
Tissue pH is typically lower than blood pH because   metabolic processes create CO2 and lactic acid, and carbonic acid which equals more acid  
🗑
Carbonic Acid is   H2CO3, results from metabolism of carbs and fats (this metabolism produces 15,000 mmol of CO2/day)  
🗑
Non-carbonic acid is a result of   protien metabolism  
🗑
Buffer prevent major changes in pH by   removing or releasing H+ ions  
🗑
Buffers can be classified into 3 MAIN groups   1.) chemical buffers (blood) 2.) respiratory CO2 3.) metabolic (or kidneys) HCO3-  
🗑
Respiratory buffers (CO2) react   within minutes  
🗑
Chemical buffers in cells and body fluids react   immediately  
🗑
Metabolic (kidneys) buffers react in (HCO3)-   hours to days  
🗑
Acid-base homeostastasis centers around the regulation of   the three main buffer systems (blood, resp, kidneys)  
🗑
The HCO3-/CO2 buffer is   present at the highest concentrations in the body, pKa value of 6.1 makes it a good pH. It's major components HCO3- & CO2 can be independantly related by the kidneys and lungs  
🗑
Dietary intake, normal caloric inaked of a MEAT-based diet is about and controlled by   20,000 mEq of acid/day. CO2 as end-product of carb & fat metab (H2CO3 = H20 + CO2). CO2 is excreted by the lungs  
🗑
Dietary intake of protein is 50-60 mEq/day of inorganic acids   controlled by the kidney, excreted by kidney with HCO3 formation  
🗑
Bicarb buffer system   H + HC03 = H2CO3 = CO2 + H20 (an increase in H will bind with bicarb (HCO3) with the help of carbonic anhydrase) forming carbonic acid (H2CO3) which is immediately broken down into H20 & CO2, and lungs blow off the CO2 (OR ACID)  
🗑
In the bicarb buffer system an increase in H+   leads to an increase in CO2 (which causes increased RR)  
🗑
In the bicarb buffer system a decrease in H+ or (alkalinity)   leads to a decreased in CO2 (which slows RR)  
🗑
The respiratory system compensates in bicarb buffer system by   changing rate & depth of RR in accordance with H+  
🗑
Renal system a decrease in pH causes   the kidneys to produce more HCO3 as well as increase secretion of H+ in the urine.  
🗑
Renal system: an increase in pH causes   the kideny to reabsorb the H+ back into the blood as well as excreting excess bicarb in the urine  
🗑
Hemoglobin buffer system part I.   prevents free CO2, and drastic changes in plasma CO2 because as the blood leaves tissues from oxygenation and other metabolic issues, the RBC snatches up the CO2 and quickly changes it to carbonic acid which dissociates easily to H+ and HCO3.  
🗑
Hemoblobin buffer system part II. (H2CO3 dissociates into HCO3 & H)   After dissociation, the bicarb (HCO3 & H) can be transported into the blood through circulation. So Bicarb moves to the plasma (H+ stays in rbc), Cl- shifts into RBC. Transported to lungs like this. Then, Bicarb moves back into the cell & CL- to plasma.  
🗑
Hemoglobin buffer system part III. (in lungs after HCO3 moves into RBC)   When HCO3 (bicarb) movese back into the RBC it combines with H+. (H + HCO3 = H2CO3 = CO2 & H2O) CO2 then leaves the RBC and goes out into the lung where it is breathed off.  
🗑
Cl- plasma levels will be higher in arterial or venous blood   Cl- plasma levels will be higher in the arterial blood sample.  
🗑
Carbonic acid can only be formed or broken down by   carbonic anhydrase, very unique enzyme found only in RBCs!  
🗑
Respiratory buffer system goes from   muscle to blood plasma, to lungs. Goal to keep CO2 level stable. carbonic acid/bicarb system. CO2 + H20 = H & HCO3 = CO2 & H20  
🗑
Phosphate buffer system works best for   intracellular fluid and urine Na2HPO4 = 2Na + HPO4 + H. Can absorbe free hydrogen.  
🗑
Maintain of pH (receptors)   Blood (carotid & aortic sinus), CSF (receptors in medulla), changes in RR depth & rate.  
🗑
Narcotics blunt   increased CO2, b/c pt is'nt taking a deep breath.  
🗑
H+ secreted into renal tubules (meaning H+ excreted in urine) stops at   pH 4.5, however other buffer systems keep pH high enough to continue secretion (like phosphorus)  
🗑
What is biggest problem; elimination of excess base or acid?   ACID  
🗑
2 forms of acides   Volitile (H2CO3) & non-volatile (products of metabolism)  
🗑
Increased metabolic states like an increase in metabolism of carbs and fats you need more O2 so there is also   an increased in CO2 as well (supply & demand).  
🗑
Volatile acid   more gas, H2CO3 (from fats and carbs) considered a weak acid that doesn't release H+ easily. Needs carbonic anhydrase for dissociation (found in RBC) so elimination is done in the lungs  
🗑
Non-volatile acid   products of metabolism, like H2SO4 & H3PO4 from metabolism of sulfucont proteiins & phospholipids, lactic acid/ketoacids. Eliminated by the kidneys.  
🗑
When excess acid or base is introduced to the body it is   immediately buffered to minimize the changes in pH  
🗑
good buffer should be around   7.4  
🗑
if you add H+ to the body you need to add   A- (base)  
🗑
if you take away H+ you need to add   HA- (acid & base) inorder to replenish the H+  
🗑
Good buffer has   Equal parts; HA (acid) = A- (base)  
🗑
pKa is   parts in a certain place. A measure of tendency of a molecule or ion to keep a proton (H+)  
🗑
Strong acids will completely or hardly dissociate in a solution?   completely (give up a H+ easily)(HCL, pH of 2 = 0.01), have acidity constants close to 1  
🗑
Weak acids   do not fully dissociate (H2CO3), have acidity constants far less than 1. Soda has pH of 4 = 0.0001  
🗑
H+ move freely between   ECF & ICF, crossing BBB (otherwise the medulla would be useless)  
🗑
movement of H+ must be matched meaning   negatively charged ion (anion) in the same direction. Positively charged ions (cation) move in the opposite direction H+ enteres the cell, K+ exits the cell  
🗑
Hgb is one of best protein buffers because it contains the most   amount of histadines, which are amino acids that buffer H+ quickly.  
🗑
Phosphate buffer pka   6.8. most acts ICF & KIDNEYS  
🗑
Bicarb   regenerated by bone stores of carbonate, although not enough to keep up with the loss. As we rid acid when breath off, we also loose the HCO3, so, the kidney is able to regenerate new bicarbe to replace loss.  
🗑
Renal buffering, specialized buffering systems   CO2 + H20 = H2CO3 = H + HCO3-, H+ is secreted into renal tubule where it is further buffered by phosphate & ammonia which maintains pH so that kidneys continue to excrete H+ in the urine if neccessary. H+ is secreted, HCO3- is reabsorbed into plasma.  
🗑
Phosphorus in the kidneys binds to   binds to H+, raising kidney pH above 4.5, so that kidneys continue to secrete H+ ions. Otherwise kidneys stop when pH reaches 4.5.  
🗑
