Cards in this deck (21)

  1. 1Hypercapniatoo much CO2 in lungs
  2. 2Hypoventiliationnot enough CO2 is being breathed out, so you have too much of it in your lungs
  3. 3Hybridization of an Amidesp2 due to the double bond resonance
  4. 4What does geometry have to do with polarity?It can make a molecule that would normally be polar be nonpolar instead
  5. 5When does a buffer work best?when acid and conj. base have equal concentrations
  6. 6Equilibrium shifts toward __________ when H+ is addedthe side with the acid because the added H+ reacts with the conj. base, thus using up the conj. base and making the soln more acidic
  7. 7When you add acid to a soln, you _____ acidmake
  8. 8If base is added, equilibrium shifts __________.toward the side with the base because added base will react with the conj. acid, use up the conj acid, and make the soln more basic
  9. 9Carbonic Anyhdride catalyzes dissociation of Carbonic Acid into _________ and _________.H+
    HCO3-
  10. 10Removing CO2 from blood makes it more__________.basic
  11. 11Removing HCO3- from blood makes it more ___________.acidic
  12. 12acidosisBlood pH decreases
    blood becomes acidic
    [H+] increases
    too much CO2
  13. 13Respiratory Acidosis Causebody can't get rid of CO2
  14. 14Respiratory Acidosis Result (3)[CO2] increases
    equilibrium shifts toward bicarbonate
    pH goes down (acidic)
  15. 15Metabolic Acidosis Cause-producing too much lactic acid
    -ketone bodies from starvation
    -too much alcohol
  16. 16Metabolic Acidosis Resultsbicarb conc. drops
    equilibrium shifts toward bicarb
    pH goes down (acidic)
  17. 17Alkalosisblood pH increases
    becomes basic
    [H+] decreases
    lacks CO2
  18. 18Respiratory Alkalosis Causehyperventiliation
  19. 19Respiratory Alkalosis Resultsincreased pH
    decreased CO2
    equilibrium shifts toward CO2
    H+ conc. decreases
    pH becomes more basic
  20. 20Metabolic Alkalosis CauseGain of [HCO3-] or loss H+
  21. 21Metabolic Alkalosis Resultbicarbonate conc. increases
    shifts to make more CO2
    H+ conc. decreases
    pH rises (basic)
