Titration curves (Figure 5-18) = describe how the pH of a buffered soli. je 69 HY fons are added to itor removed from it. A ihe A Penate cided tothe solution, the HA form is produced; as Hviona are removed, the A~ form is produced. A buffer is most effective inthe lin removal of H* portion of the titration curve, where the addition oF in pH. when the pH of the solution equals: Tiere ee es = ee To pa 1 In metabolic acidosis, the serum (HCO, dec is depleted in buffering fixed acid For electroneutrality, the concentration of another anion must increas® to replace HCO; That anion can be Cr-or it can be an unmeasured anion.

Loss of fixed H’ or gain of base produces a decrease in arterial [H*] (alkalemie). ', As aresult, arterial [HCO;;] increases. This increase is the primary disturbance. = For example, in vomiting, H* is lost from Fi inthe See from the stomach, HCO, remains behind in
