Calculate the pH of a 1 L solution containing 0.100 M formic acid and 0.100 M sodium formate before and after the addition of 1.00 mL of 5.00 M NaOH. How much would the pH change if the NaOH were added to 1.00 L of pure water? (pKa for formic acid is 3.75)

One of the buffers that contribute to pH stability in human blood is carbonic acid (H2CO3). Carbonic acid is a weak acid that, when placed in an aqueous solution, dissociates into a bicarbonate ion (HCO3-) and a hydrogen ion (H+). (See figure.)
If the pH of blood drops, one would expect ________.
