In our body, carbon dioxide (CO2) combines with water (H2O) to form carbonic acid.
H2O + CO2 \(\text { → }\) H2CO3
Carbonic acid undergoes dissociation as,
\(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3} \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{H}^{+}+\mathrm{HCO}_{3}^{-}\)
During the physical and mental stress, the rate of respiration increses, which results in the decrease in concentration of CO2 in the blood. What will be the effect on pH of human blood during the stress ?
