What type of Gas does the Reaction of Sodium Bicarbonate and Dilute Hydrochloric Acid produce?
When sodium bicarbonate reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid they produce carbon dioxide (CO2)
What does Bicarbonate do in the body?
Idk man
What secretes bicarbonate?
Epithelial cells in pancreatic ducts are the source of the bicarbonate and water. These cells secrete bicarbonate to balance the body's ph.
When sodium Bicarbonate decomposes it produce sodium carbonate and what else?
Sodium bicarbonate decomposes into sodium carbonate, carbon dioxide, and water.
How stinguisher powder produce?
It is mined but there are different types Monoammonium phosphate Sodium bicarbonate Potassium bicarbonate Potassium bicarbonate & Urea Complex Potassium Chloride these are just the powder type
Do the pancreas produce sodium bicarbonate?
Yes, for the neutralization of the acids from duodenum.
Why is sodium bicarb given to dialysis patients?
Bicarbonate is a buffer - it adjusts acidity. Bicarbonate is in the blood naturally. The body uses it to control it's acidity. Bicarbonate is used in dialysis to maintain the proper acid balance in the body.
How sodium bicarbonate neutralize the Acid Rain?
Sodium bicarbonate gives hydrogencarbonate ions which can produce carbondioxide and water with protons. It acts as a weak base.
What is the chemical reaction in the body for lithium bicarbonate?
If it exists, it would most likely mimic that of sodium bicarbonate; only experiments would determine if the same applies for potassium bicarbonate.
What produces afluid that neutralizes stomach acid?
Intercalated ducts produce bicarbonate in the pancreas.
What does bicarbonate mean?
Bicarbonate is a polyatomic ion with the formula (HCO3)-. It is most commonly found in sodium bicarbonate, NaHCO3, commonly known as baking soda. Bicarbonates will readily react with most acids to produce carbon dioxide and water.
What is the pH of bicarbonate?

Bicarbonate is an http://www.answers.com/topic/alkali, and a vital component of the http://www.answers.com/topic/ph buffering systemhttp://www.answers.com/topic/bicarbonate#cite_note-veq-0 of the body (maintaining http://www.answers.com/topic/acid-base-homeostasis). 86%-90% of CO2 in the body is converted into http://www.answers.com/topic/carbonic-acid (H2CO3), which can quickly turn into bicarbonate (HCO3−). http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_pH_of_sodium_bicarbonate&src=ansTT Sodium bicarbonate at room temperature will produce a pH of around 8. The pH of a solution can be used to describe the acidic or basic qualities of soil samples, cosmetics, food, beverages, etc.
