Chemical Reactivity
When water is added to bonds it can compounds apart. This type of reaction is called a reaction.
Cushioning
What function does water serve when acting as a cushion in the body?

3. Tab 2: Salts
Salts are compounds that contain other than H+ and other then OH-.
Easily in water into their ions.
Also known as because they can conduct an current in solution due to the charge of the ions.

Also known as solutions.
When mixed with an acid it forms a and ? This type of reaction is known as a reaction.
Draw the bicarbonate buffer system and label the strong and weak acids, salts, water, and whether the reaction decreases or increases the pH. See page 536 for the reactions.
