ACID – BASE BALANCE HOMEOSTASIS Relative [ ] of hydrogen ions pH – potential hydrogen Normal pH: 7.35 – 7.45 7.45 is alkalosis.
Acid-Base Physiology 2012. Objectives Understand normal mechanisms and regulation of acid-base balance Interpret blood gases Understand the effects.

Measured by pH pH is a mathematical value representing the negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion (H + ) concentration. More H + = more acidic = lower.
