Chemical X is a contaminant present in low quantities in drinking water. Its molecular size is abo nm and it may bind briefly with plasma albumin. Chemical X is a weak base with a pka of 5. Assuming the pH of the stomach is 1, the pH of the blood is 8, and the pH of the small intestine is 8.5, describe the absorption, distribution, biotransformation and excretion of Chemical X in a human.

Use a calculation based on the pH partition model to determine the likelihood that a weakly acidic drug of pKa= 3.0 will be absorbed passively from the stomach (pH = 2.3) or from the small intestine (pH = 5.0). The pH of the blood is 7.4 .
Normal arterial pH is 7.35 to 7. 45. Both metabolic and respiratory alkalosis have pH more basic compare to the normal arterial pH. The difference is 0.5 units. What is pH value in alkalosis? Niemann-Pick type C disease is a progressive neurological disease; symptoms include unsteady walking with uncoordinated limb movements, slurred speech, a difficulty in swallowing, epilepsy and tremor. This condition is due to the abnormal functioning of a lysosome. State the normal functions performed by this organelle.
In a hospital laboratory, a 10.0 mL sample of gastric juice, obtained several hours after a meal, was titrated with 0.01 M NaOH to neutral pH of 7.0; 72.0 mL of NaOH was required for this titration. The patient’s stomach contained no ingested food or drink, thus assume that no buffers were present. What was the pH of the 10.0 mL gastric juice sample before titrating with NaOH?
It is recommended that children should have fluoride supple- ments for their teeth if the fluoride content of drinking water is 0.7 ppm or less. How much is this when expressed as a concentration of micrograms per litre?

You receive a prescription for Epanutin® Suspension. The patient normally takes 150mg daily in capsule form, however he has recently started to have difficulty in swallowing them. The doctor asks you to check that the Epanutin® Capsules and Suspension are equivalent to each other. The following information is extracted from the BNF. Dose equivalence and conversion Preparations containing phenytoin sodium are not bioequivalent to those containing phenytoin base (such as Epanutin® suspension); 100 mg of phenytoin sodium is approximately equivalent in therapeutic effect to 92 mg phenytoin base.
