A)      Carbonic acd, H2CO3, can befound in a wide variety of body fluids (from dissolved CO2).Calculate the hydronium ion concentration of 6.38 x 10 ^-4 M, H2CO3solution. What is the concentration of CO3^2-?     Ka (H2CO3)= 4.3 x 10^-7      Ka (HCO3)= 4.8 x 10 ^-4

B)     Calculate the base-ionizatoinconstant for SO4 ^2- and PO4 ^3-.   Ka (HSO4)= 1.1 x 10^-2   Ka (PO4^2-)= 4.8 x 10 -13
