Bronsted-Lowry theory of acids and bases
|
ACID Donates a Hydrogen Ion
BASE Accepts a Hydrogen Ion |
|
Is a proton or electron is transfered in an Acid-Base rxn
|
Proton
|
|
Which is a stronger acid Organic or Inorganic
|
Inorganic Acid is Stronger than Organic Acid
|
|
Strong Acid
|
an acid that gives up a H ion easily and is essentially 100% dissolved in H2O
|
|
Weak Acid
|
and acid that gives up an H with difficulty and is less than 100% dissociated in H2O
|
|
Dissociation
|
the splitting apart of an acid in H2O to give H ion and an anion
|
|
How much H ion concentration can there be to maintain a normal pH 7.35-7.45
|
44-36 nmol/L
(more H = more acidic and lower pH) |
|
pKa
|
onset of action of a drug
|
|
why is CO2 a Volatile Acid
|
b/c we breath it off as a gas
|
|
How are Hydrogen Ions mainly produced?
|
Protein Metabolism
|
|
How much CO2 is produced each day from Aerobic Metabolism
|
15-20 mols
|
|
How much H ion is produced each day
|
1mEq/kg (50-100mEq)
|
|
Is H ion a volatile or non-volatile acid
|
Non-volatile
|
|
What kind of metabolism are H ions mainly produced by?
|
Protein Metabolism
|
|
Ratio of Bicarb: CO2
|
20:1
|
|
what does the Henderson-Hasselbach equation show
|
it relates pH to levels of HCO3 and CO2
|
|
What does pKa represent
|
the pH at which 50% of an acid is dissociated (ionized) and 50% non-ionized
|
|
solubility coefficient for CO2 in plasma
|
0.03
|
|
pKa of carbonic acid
|
6.1 at 37 Celsius
|
|
Buffer
|
any substance that can reversibly bind Hydrogen ions (minimize or resist a change in pH)
|
|
most important ECF buffer
|
Bicarbonate (weak, organic acid)
|
|
Renal tubular fluid buffer, ICF buffer
|
Phosphate
|
|
renal tubular fluid buffer
|
Ammonia
|
|
Most important ICF buffer
|
Protein (Hgb)
|
|
Poikilothermia
|
when body temp equilibrates with ambient temp.
-created by anethesia |
|
3 components of thermoregulation
|
Afferent
central processing Efferent |
|
core body parts
|
chest
abd pelvis head |
|
what makes up the peripheral body
|
extremeties and skin
|
|
shell depth
|
2.5cm
|
|
mean body temp =
|
2/3 core + 1/3 surface
|
|
how much heat is lost through the lungs
|
1/3
|
|
where are thermoreceptors located
|
spinal cord
skin hypothalmus brain deep tissue skin surface 80% from core 20% periphery |
