Question
Chapter 15, Problem 20P
Interpretation Introduction
To explain:
The hyperventilation and hypoventilation of Hb (hemoglobin): O2binding using Figure 15.29 and 15.28 and blood pH and respiration.
Introduction:
Hyperventilation increases O2and decreases CO2where hypoventilation increases CO2in the blood. This leads to pH changes in the blood and O2affinity to hemoglobin.

Assessing the Effect of Temperature on Equilibrium You are studying the various components of the venom of a poisonous lizard. One of the venom components is a protein that appears to be temperature sensitive. When heated, it denatures and is no longer toxic. The process can be described by the following simple equation: There is only enough protein from this venom to carry out two equilibrium measurements. At 298 K, you find that 98% of the protein is in its to.\ic form. However, when you raise the temperature to 320 �.. you find that only 10% of the protein is in its toxic form. Calculate the equilibrium constants for the T to N conversion at these two temperatures. Use the data to determine the H,S, and G for this process.arrow_forwardAnswers to all problems are at the end of this book.
