Chapter 34.7, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
What a doctor might be assuming about a patient’s blood chemistry when he or she gives bicarbonate to the patient who is breathing rapidly.
Introduction:
Gas exchange involves the inhalation of oxygen and removal of carbon dioxide through lungs. For gaseous exchange both heart and lungs are responsible. Hemoglobin is the iron containing pigment that carries oxygen into the blood and is called respiratory pigments. Respiratory pigment increases the concentration of oxygen in blood

The Agawam High School band is playing some lively marches while the coaches are giving pep talks to their respective football squads. Although it is September, it is unseasonably hot (88ºF/31ºC) and the band uniforms are wool. Suddenly, Harry the tuba player becomes light-headed and faints. Explain what happened.
