Bicarbonate buffer system in blood consists of carbonic acid and bicarbonate ion. H2CO3/HCO3-

When a base enters the body the acid part of the buffer reacts with the base.

Thats the carbonic acid (H2CO3) reacts with the base.

Answer:

The correct answer is carbonic acid.

Explanation:

The acid-base homeostatic mechanism known as the bicarbonate buffer system involves the balance of bicarbonate ion, carbonic acid, and carbon dioxide in order to sustain pH in the duodenum and in the blood, along with other tissues for maintaining adequate metabolic activities. As with the buffer system, the pH is monitored by the existence of both the weak acid, that is, the carbonic acid, and its conjugate base, like bicarbonate ion, so that any extra base or acid presented to the system getting neutralized. In the bicarbonate buffer system, the carbonic acid reacts with a base to balance the system.

Consider the following reaction. SO2Cl2 → SO2 + Cl2. After collecting experimental data you found that plotting ln[SO2Cl2] vs. t
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

[SO_2Cl_2]_{600}= 0.0842 M

Explanation:

Some theoretical knowledge is required here. We should understand that whenever we plot the natural logarithm, ln, of a concentration vs. time and obtain a straight line, this indicates a first-order reaction. That said, since this is the case here, we have a first-order reaction with respect to SO_2Cl_2.

The linear equation has the following terms:

y = -0.000290t - 2.30

It is a linear form of the integrated first-order law equation:

ln[SO_2Cl_2]_t = -kt + ln[SO_2Cl_2]_o

Therefore, the rate constant, k, is:

k = 0.000290 s^{-1}

The natural logarithm of initial molarity is:

ln[SO_2Cl_2]_o = -2.30

Using the equation, we may substitute for t = 600 s and obtain the natural logarithm of the concentration at that time:

ln[SO_2Cl_2]_{600} = -0.000290 s^{-1}\cdot 600 s - 2.30 = -2.474

Take the antilog of both sides to find the actual molarity:

[SO_2Cl_2]_{600}=e^{-2.474} = 0.0842 M
