Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An acid solution is characterized by having a pH less than 7 and a higher concentration of H⁺ ions than OH^- ions. Answer: F Metabolic alkalosis refers to a condition where the pH of the blood is higher than normal and is caused by excessive loss of acid from the body or excessive intake of base. Answer: G An alkaline solution has a pH greater than 7 and a higher concentration of OH^- ions than H⁺ ions. Answer: H The kidney system plays an important role in maintaining the body's pH balance by regulating the excretion of acids and bases in the urine. Answer: I Respiratory acidosis occurs when there is an excessive accumulation of carbon dioxide in the body due to impaired lung function, leading to a decrease in blood pH.
