The following chemical reaction takes place in aqueous solution: 2AgF(aq)+Na2CO3(aq)→Ag2CO3(s)+2NaF(aq) Write the net ionic equation for this reaction.
Calculate the pH of a blood plasma sample with a total CO₂ concentration of 25.6 mM and bicarbonate concentration of 24.5 mM. The relevant pKa of carbonic acid is 6.1. Enter the answer with three significant figures. pH = Hyperventilating can result in a decrease in CO₂(g) concentration in the blood. How would this affect the pH of the extracellular fluid? The pH does not change appreciably. The pH increases. The pH decreases.
