Hello. I am a high school student in Indiana. Recently, my chemistry
teacher
asked if anyone knew the 3 types of Blood Buffers that allow the blood to
keep
its pH balance at the same level. We were able to come up with 2 of them,
-2
H PO /HPO
2 4 4
And
H CO /HCO
2 3 3
But we failed to come up with the 3rd buffer. My teacher could not htink of
it
either, so he said that if we could do some research and find the other
buffer,
it would be worth bonus points. (I could really use them) I've racked my
brain, searched encyclopedias, and the net and I couldnt find it. I was
wondering if you could help me out. It would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time,
Evan
