The blood of mammals is an aqueous solution that maintains a constant pH. The normal pH
of human blood is 7.40. Carbon dioxide provides the most important blood buffer. In
solution, CO2, reacts with water to form H2CO3, which ionizes to produce H3O+ and
HCO3- ions:

Consider the following insoluble salt:CaCO3(s)
Will the solubility of this salt increase, decrease, or remain the same after adding:
a) Sulfuric acid (H2SO4)
solubility will because CO32- is basic: the
acid will react with the base, thereby removing a product, shifting the equilibrium to the right
b) Hydrochloric acid (HCl)
solubility will because CO32- is basic: the
acid will react with the base, thereby removing a product, shifting the equilibrium to the right
c) Calcium chloride (CaCl2)
solubility will because you are adding a common ion (Ca2+) that shifts the equilibrium to the left
UA GenChem
Consider the following insoluble salt: AgCl(s)
Will the solubility of these salts increase, decrease, or remain the same after adding:
a) Sulfuric acid (H2SO4)
increase; SO42- interacts with Ag+ to form an
insoluble compound, removing a product and shifting equilibrium to the right
b) Hydrochloric acid (HCl)
decrease; because Cl- is a common ion and shifts the equilibrium to the left
c) Calcium Chloride (CaCl2)
decrease; again, Cl- is a common ion and shifts the equilibrium to the left, thus reducing the solubility

Q = (7.5 10-6)(7.5 10-6) = 5.6 10-11
