The man buffer system of the human blood is h2co3-hco3 why ?

Veerbhadra thakur said:   1 decade ago
H2co3-Hco3 are to maintain pH due to it stabalies the acid.

The acid is always high in the bodywhich is nutralise by bicarbonate.

Please give more information.

H2CO3 get decompose to HCO3- + H+..
hence the main buffer system of the body is H2CO3 and HCO3

The human blood pH contain 5.7 in acidic condition for maintained by the presence of air in H2Co3-HCo3 as act as buffer of the maintain the pH of the human body system.

In this system, carbon dioxide (CO2) combines with water to form carbonic acid (H2CO3), which in turn rapidly dissociates to form hydrogen ions and bicarbonate (HCO3- ). The carbon dioxide - carbonic acid equilibrium is catalyzed by the enzyme carbonic anhydrase; the carbonic acid - bicarbonate equilibrium is simple proton dissociation/association and needs no catalyst.

In our body, CO2 combines with water to give H2CO3, and this dissociates to H+ and HCO3- and this causes the pH of the blood to fall in acidic range. This acidified blood acts on our own cells leads to degeneration of cells. Hence we feel tired during playing. This is the process of dehydration. When we feel thirsty and tired after playing, what we have to do is to just cover your nose and mouth, and inhale the gas which you exhaled, leads to the reversal of reaction and balances our blood pH.

Just I want to share this info with others and it went as big para. Sorry.

How it's possible please more information?

First up all I would like to say buffer solution is weak acid or base and their salts so here we have HCOOH and its salt HCOO.

So the first one is correct.

Tell about buffer solution.
