You are asked to prepare a solution that has the same pH

Chapter 17, Problem 70

(choose chapter or problem)

You are asked to prepare a solution that has the same pH as human blood, 7.40. (a) What should be the ratio of concentrations in this solution? (b) Suppose you have to prepare 1.00 L of the solution described in part (a) and that this solution must be isotonic with blood (have the same osmotic pressure as blood). What masses of and of would you use? [Hint: Refer to the definition of isotonic on page 580. Recall that a solution of NaCl with 9.2 g solution is isotonic with blood, and assume that NaCl is completely ionized in aqueous solution.]
