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
