A constant pH within living cells is maintained by the H₂PO4 (aq)/ HPO42 (aq) buffer system.
How would the system above react to aqueous hydrogen chloride being added to it?
Select one:
O H₂O + H₂PO4 (0) HPO(g) + H₂00
O H₂O(g) HPO( (aq) → PO4³¹ (g) + H₂O
O H₂O(g) +
H₂PO4 (0)
PO4³0g)
+H₂O@
O H₂0 (+
HPO4 (aq) + H₂PO4 g) + H₂O
Clear my choice.
