Hi new solutions need for all Consider the scenario below: A 40-year-old woman was rushing to get to her workplace before office time. What do you think would have happened to her blood's pH? _________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ What would be the effect on pH once she reaches her office, but continues to breathe hard for a few minutes? __________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________ Why? __________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________ A weak acid causes her issue. She ingested far too much aspirin, also known as acetylsalicylic acid, and ended up in the emergency room (ER). The pH range within which humans can survive is between pH 6.8 and about pH 8.0. The woman's pH is outside of this window. What do you think would have happened to her? __________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________ Why, despite being nearly comatose, is she breathing rapidly and deeply when she arrives at the ER? __________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________ Unfortunately, her breathing isn't doing much to help.
