Q2/ The total carbon dioxide content (HCO3- CO2) in a blood sample is determined by acidifying the sample and measuring the volume of CO2 evolved with a VanSlyke manomertric apparatus. The total concentration was determined to be 30.5mmol/L. The blood pH at 37°C was determined to be 8.48. What are the concentration of HCO3- and CO2 in the blood? pKa=6.1

Transcribed Image Text:Q2/ The total carbon dioxide content (HCO3- + CO2) in a
blood sample is determined by acidifying the sample and
measuring the volume of CO2 evolved with a VanSlyke
manomertric apparatus. The total concentration was determined
to be 30.5mmol/L. The blood pH at 37°C was determined to be
8.48. What are the concentration of HCO3- and CO2 in the
blood? pKa=6.1
