What is the name for HCO3?
this is the emperical formula for the Bicarbonate ion
PKa of NaHCO3?
The pKa value for sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) is 10.3. This provides a measure of the acid strength of bicarbonate. People often make the mistake of reporting the pKa value of 6.3 for bicarbonate. However, that is the pKa value of carbonic acid (not bicarbonate). It relates to the ease of the first deprotonation of carbonic acid to form bicarbonate. The pKa of bicarbonate relates to the deportation of bicarbonate to form carbonate. This distinction is important, since carbonic acid has two pKa's, the higher of which represents that second deprotonation.
What is substitute for ammonium bicarbonate?
sodium bicarbonate
What is the formula for copper (I) bicarbonate?
Copper II Bicarbonate is Cu(HCO3)2 and Copper I Bicarbonate is CuHCO3
Are sodium bicarbonate and soda bicarbonate the same?
Yeah. They are =).
What is the most important ECF buffer of HCl?

What is the most important buffer in extracellular fluids?
Bicarbonate Buffer System (only important ECF buffer)
What are the most important ingredients in Mylanta?

The most important ECF buffer of HCl is?
sodium bicarbonate
An important buffer in body fluids is?
NaHCO3 Sodium Bicarbonate
Is the most important buffer system present in blood?
the bicarbonate ion
Is the most important way that the body transport CO2?
The Bicarbonate Buffer System
What are physiologically important buffers?
An important physiological buffer is the Digestive System's Bicarbonate Buffer System: CO2 + H2O = H2CO3 = H+ + HCO3- The bicarbonate ion (HCO3-) is made by the pancreas. This is one of the pancrea's many exocrine functions. The bicarbonate helps to counteract the HCl released into the stomach thus maintaining the pH balanced.

Why is it important for the pancreas to release bicarbonate into the small intestine?
It is important for the pancreas to release bicarbonate into the small intestine because the pancreatic fluid flows into the small intestines. The pancreatic fluid consists of enzymes that chemically digest chyme and contains bicarbonate which neutralizes the acid in chyme. So in order for the stomach to chemically digest the food it has to have the pancreatic fluid.
Can you mix sodium bicarbonate with sodium carbonate for laundry?
Yes, it is possible but I think that it is not so important.
