Question 2

A patient is hyperventilating. The "blowing off" of excessive carbon dioxide causes a decrease in blood H+ concentration. How can the carbonic acid-bicarbonate buffer system function to correct this imbalance?

CO2 + H2O ↔ H2CO3 ↔ H+ + HCO3-

◦ H2CO3 dissociates to form more H+ and lower pH
◦ HCO3- binds with H+ to form H2CO3 and lower pH
◦ HCO3- binds with H+ to form H2CO3 and raise pH
◦ H2CO3 dissociates to form more H+ and raise pH
