One of the main functions of saliva is to buffer against acid from food and plaque, which contributes significantly to the formation of cavities. While there are several buffers in saliva, carbonic acid (H2CO3) has the highest concentration and has the greatest effect on pH.
(a) While the salivary concentration of carbonic acid stays at a fairly constant 1.3 mM, the level of bicarbonate (HCO3-) can vary with the rate that saliva flows from salivary glands. For low flow rates, the bicarbonate concentration is around 2 mM; for medium flow rates, it is 30 mM; and for high flow rates, around 60 mM. The pKa of carbonic acid at body temperature is 6.1. Assuming that the pH of Saliva is determined primarily by carbonic acid and bicarbonate, determine the pH of saliva for each of the three flow rates. The normal pH of saliva is about 6.3.
(b) The most prevalent bacterium in the mouth, streptococcus mutans, breaks down sugar and releases lactic acid (pKa = 3.86). If S. mutans has produced 10^-8 moles of lactic acid since your last swallow, what is the pH of your saliva? What would the pH be without the bicarbonate buffer? Assume that your mouth contains about 1 mL of saliva and that your saliva is flowing at a low rate.
(c) You take a drink of orange juice, and after you swallow, 0.5 mL remains in your mouth. What is the pH of your saliva if your mouth contains 1 mL of pure saliva, and if you model orange juice as 1.0 mM citric acid (pKa = 3.13; assume only one dissociation).
(d) Why do some toothpastes contain baking soda (sodium bicarbonate)?

A eco-conscious dad notices that we left the computer and light on from the last homework. After scolding us about the electrical bill, he turns them both off, and they eventually cool to the ambient temperature of 25 oC.
a) What is the total change in entropy for the computer chip (or bulb) for this cooling process? Find the total entropy change for the universe. (Recall that the chip is 50. g silicon, 20. g copper, and 65 g. polyvinyl chloride, initially running at a temperature of 75 oC.)
b) Find the specific entropy change for the light bulb in this cooling process. Calculate the specific entropy generated for the bulb. (The light bulb is initially filled with argon, an ideal gas, at a temperature of 65.0 oC a volume of 40. cm3 and a pressure of 103.8 kPa. Neglect the glass and metal comprising the rest of the light bulb.)
