Do the tubule cells of the kidneys excrete bicarbonate ions and retain hydrogen ions become to acidic?
more hydrogen ions from blood to urine
When an acid ionizes in water what happens to the number of hydrogen ions?
the number of hydrogen ions (charges) given by the acid will be the same as the anions
Which reaction removes hydrogen ions from the blood?
carbon dioxide
What is the role of hydrogen ions in the conversion of ADP to ATP?
it is caused by the hydrogen ion flow across the membrane.
What happens to the Ph when acids release hydrogen ions in water?
it decreases
How do kidneys control of the level of acidity in the blood?
By regulating the amount of positive hydrogen ions in the blood.
Why is the concentration of hydrogen or hydroxide ions in blood plasma or cell cytoplasm critical?
The concentration of hydrogen or hydroxide ions in blood plasma and cell cytoplasm is critical. These hydrogen and hydroxide ions can be combined to form water.
What best describes a buffer?
A buffer is a substance in a solution that releases and captures hydrogen ions, keeping the pH the same.Sodium hydroxide, a base, is added to the solution, but the pH of the solution does not changeA buffer resists change in pH by accepting hydrogen ions when acids are added to the solution and donating hydrogen ions when bases are added.
What substance can be eliminated from the blood by tubular secretion?
Potassiun ions. Hydrogen ions. Ammonium ions.
Do the tubule cells of the kidneys excrete bicarbonate ions and retain hydrogen ions become to acidic?
more hydrogen ions from blood to urine
When an acid is added to water what ion is released?
Hydrogen ions.
Which reaction adds hydrogen ions to the blood?
nitrogen
When an acid ionizes in water what happens to the number of hydrogen ions?
the number of hydrogen ions (charges) given by the acid will be the same as the anions
How does the phosphate buffer system help in maintaining the pH of our body?
The phosphate buffer system consists of two ions: dihydrogen phosphate ions and hydrogen phosphate ions. When the number of hydrogen ions in a body's bloodstream increases (pH drops), hydrogen phosphate ions accept hydrogen ions in order to maintain the equilibrium between the concentration of hydrogen and hydroxide ions within the bloodstream. When the number of hydrogen ions in the bloodstream decreases (pH increases), the resulting dihydrogen phosphate ions release hydrogen ions in order to increase the number of hydrogen ions in the blood.
What ion is added to make an acid?
Acids produce hydrogen ions.
Which reaction removes hydrogen ions from the blood?
carbon dioxide
What is the role of hydrogen ions in the conversion of ADP to ATP?
it is caused by the hydrogen ion flow across the membrane.
