Stem (Q. 22 – 23)
Human blood has a narrow pH range of 7.3-7.4, which must be maintained for metabolic processes to
function properly. To keep the pH in this range requires a delicate balance between the concentrations
of the conjugate acid-base pairs making upto the buffer system. The main buffer is a carbonic acid/
hydrogencarbonate system, which involves the following three equilibria.
CO 2  aq   H 2 O  l  H 2CO3  aq 
H 2 CO3  aq   H 2O  l  HCO3  aq   H 3O   aq 
Carbonic acid  H 2 CO3  is a weak acid and HCO3  aq  is its conjugate base. At the temperature of the
human body, the pK a for carbonic acid is 6.4. However, the normal concentration of CO 2  g  in the
lungs maintains a ratio of HCO3  aq  / H 2CO3  aq  in blood plasma of about 8: 1.
The carbonic acid concentration in the blood is largely controlled by breathing and respiration.
Hydrogencarbonate ion concentration is largely controlled by excretion in urine.
If blood pH rises above 7.4, a potentially life-threatening condition called alkalosis can result. This
can happen in patients who are hyperventilating from severe anxiety, or in climbers suffering from oxygen
deficiency at high altitude. (Given: log 2 = 0.3)

22. Calculate pH of blood at the temperature of the human body.

23. Calculate the maximum permissible value of

 H 2CO3  in the human blood to just prevent alkalosis

Paragraph – II
The state of equilibrium is in a dynamic balance between forward and backward reaction. This balance
can be disturbed by changing concentration, temperature or pressure. If done so a certain net change
occurs in the system. The direction of change can be predicted with the Chatelier principle. It states
that when a system in equilibrium is disturbed by a change in concentration or temperature, a 'net'
change occurs in it in a direction that tends to decrease the disturbing factor.
