Tom is holding his breath underwater. What happens to the carbon dioxide content of his blood, and how does this change affect his blood acidity?
Notice that the arrows go in both directions, indicating that the reaction can proceed in both directions. If Tom consumes a large amount of lemon juice, increasing the H+ concentration in his blood, what do you think will happen to the amount of CO2 in his blood? Only consider the equation above in your answer.
