Sentences with phrase «hydrogen ion levels»

Not exact matches

To maintain this level, your blood creates its own buffer system consisting of molecules that absorb excess hydrogen ions if things get too acidic, or release them if the blood is too basic.

acid A chemical that increases the level of hydrogen ions (H +) in a solution.

It is not an acid at a physiological pH (PKa ~ 3.5); at high intensities muscle acidity is due to intracellular hydrogen ion formation within the cell due to higher levels of ATP hydrolysis and NADH formation (a high ATP demand / O2 supply ratio).

(source) This happens because the amino acid buffers a hydrogen ion (H +), and this allows the human body to keep it's intensity level higher... for a longer period of time.

Apart from the salt, ocean air also contains negatively charged ions of hydrogen, which is great for improved oxygen absorption, as well as your energy levels.

If the surface ocean pCO2 concentrations continue to increase in proportion with the atmospheric CO2 increase, a doubling of atmospheric CO2 from preindustrial levels will result in a 30 % decrease in carbonate ion concentration and a 60 % increase in hydrogen ion concentration.

Acid rain, which is the type of rain that possesses high levels of hydrogen ions, still has noxious and vile effects on streams, lakes, forests, aquatic animals, infrastructure and plants.

If the surface ocean PCO2 concentrations continue to increase in proportion with the atmospheric CO2 increase, a doubling of atmospheric CO2 from preindustrial levels will result in a 30 % decrease in carbonate ion concentration and a 60 % increase in hydrogen ion concentration.

From preindustrial levels, contemporary surface ocean pH is estimated to have dropped on average from 8.2 to 8.1, or by about 0.1 pH units (a 26 % increase in hydrogen ion concentration), and further decreases of 0.22 to 0.35 pH units are projected over this century unless carbon dioxide emissions are significantly reduced (Orr et al., 2005; Bopp et al., 2013).
