Carbon dioxide is dissolved in blood (pH 7.4) to form a mixture of carbonic acid and bicarbonate. Neglecting free CO2, what fraction will be present as carbonic acid? Would you expect a significant amount of carbonate (CO32-)?
Refer to chemical equation shown here to explain why carbon dioxide dissolved in water acts as a buffer.
H2O+CO2<>H2CO3<>H++HCO3
What is the function of the buffer bicarbonate in the human body?
