The pH of blood if pco2 drops to 35.0 mmHg is 7.459

The pH of the blood can be calculated using the Henderson- Hasselbalch equation, which explains the relationship between acid dissociation constant pKa and pH in biological and chemical systems.

pH = pK + log ( HCO3- / ( 0.03 * PCO2 ) )

pK is 6.1 for the bicarbonate buffer system.

HCO3- = 24mm

PCO2  = 35.0 mmhg

pH = 6.1 + log ( 24 / 0.03 * 35.0 )

    = 6.1 + log ( 24 / 1.05 )

    = 6.1 + log 22.8571

    = 6.1 + 1.3590

    = 7.459

Hence, the pH of blood is 7.459

Lab Report experiment about lima beans plant
kumpel [21]

Lima beans in soil of pH 6.8 grew better than that in soil of pH 7.9 showing that a slightly acidic soil is best for growth of Lima beans.

<h3>What is the purpose of the experiment?</h3>

The purpose of the experiment is to determine the effect of  soil pH of growth of Lima beans.

Lima beans is known to have maximum growth in soil pH of 6.0 to 6.8.

The Lima beans are planted in soil of pH 7.9 (watered with creek water) and soil of pH 6.8 (watered with a solution of Miracle grow).

It was observed after ten days, that the Lima beans in soil of pH 6.8 grew better than that in soil of pH 7.9 which did not grow.

In conclusion, Lima beans grows best in soil of pH that is slightly acidic.

How are weight loss companies biased to sell their products?
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Diet and weightloss advertising puts super skinny models and actors/actresses saying they lost an insane amount of weight using their product. That is completely bias because they aren’t just going to say the model lost weight through other methods of weight loss because they are advertising THEIR product.

I would use skepticism evaluating these ads because I would be skeptical believing that someone lost 200 pounds in 2 months drinking some supplement.
