The document discusses the Henderson-Hasselbach equation, which relates pH and the concentration of hydrogen ions [H]. It notes that pH of 7.4 corresponds to a hydrogen ion concentration of 40 nmol/L. The equation shows that an increase in pH means a decrease in [H] concentration, and that a change of 1 pH unit corresponds to a 10-fold difference in [H]. The body maintains high [H] levels, and buffers help stabilize pH. The Henderson-Hasselbach equation is useful for understanding pH and [H] concentration.
2. Whatis PH ?
• [H] = .000 000 04 EQL
• [H] = 40 n eql
• -log [H] = 7.4
• Pour of [H] = 7.4
• Ph= 7.4
SO INCREASE PH = DECREASE [H] because( – log)
ALSO one different in ph means 10 different in [H]
