Part c beta-Hydroxybutyric acid (BHBA) is an interesting molecule that is constantlyblood stream. BHBA becomes elevated when your metabolism is driven intocirculating inketosis, a state that occurs when carbohydrates and glycogen are no longer available for metabolismand your body turns to using fats instead. Some athletes believe that forcing themselves into ketosisbefore a competition increases performance and products such as the drink HVMN Ketone Esterhave been developed for this purpose. The structure of BHBA is shown below:yourOHHO,a. Draw the structures of the conjugate acid and conjugate base forms of BHBA.b. Calculate the pH of a solution that contains 0.0353 mole of BHBA in 500 mL of water giventhat the pKa of BHBA is 4.70. Which is the principal chemical form of BHBA in aqueoussolution, the conjugate acid or the conjugate base?When BHBA is consumed in the drink HVMN Ketone Ester it eventually passes into thebloodstream. Blood is buffered at a pH of 7.4. Calculate the ratio of conjugate base toconjugate acid for BHBA in the blood stream. Which is the principal chemical form in thebloodstream, the conjugate acid or the conjugate base?C.
