Calculate the pH of a blood plasma sample with a total CO₂ concentration of 25.7 mM and bicarbonate concentration of 24.4 mM. The relevant pK, of carbonic acid is 6.1. Enter the answer with three significant figures.

How can I explain patient's pH value given his PaCO2 results in terms of that? Equation CO2 + H2O = H2CO3 = H+  +  HCO3- Patient's results pH = 7.3 PaCO2 = 77 mm Hg HCO3- = 36 mEq/L

During transfer of liquids using a micropipette: What would it mean if the mean is very close to the expected value but your standard deviation is high ?

What is the expected condition for a patient with following ABG values of pH 7.5, pco2-46mmHg, HCO--30 m Eq/dL and k+-3.4 mEq/dL Metabolic alkolosis Metabolic acidosis Respiratory alkolosis Respiratory acidosis

How do I calculate beers law? For serial dilutions. I want to look the concentration values from these absorbance readings in order to make a graph of conc vs absorbance. (Assume the first tube has a 1 unit/ml concentration) 1)1.180 2)0.513 3)0.107 4)0.019 5)0.003

State the chemical equation for the bicarbonate buffer system.

A 42 year old man is admitted to the hospital with the sudden onset of dyspnea with clear lungs and a normal chest xray. He has just been on a flight from Australia to New York City. The blood gas values are as follows: pH 7.56, pCO2 16, pO2 80, 95% saturation What is this person’s A-a gradient?
