Warfarin is an acidic drug that has a pKa of 6.6. What is the ratio of acid form (HA) to the conjugate base (A-) of Warfarin in the blood? blood pH is \( 7.4 \) Selectrone: a. \( 1 \mathrm{HA} \) for every \( 1 \mathrm{~A} \) - b. \( 160 \mathrm{HA} \) for every \( 1 \mathrm{~A} \) - C \( 1 \mathrm{HA} \) for every \( 6 \mathrm{~A} \) - d. 1 HA for every100 A.
Expert Answer
Option a. 1HA for every 1 A- is incorrect because the pH of the blood is higher than the pKa of Warfarin. When the pH is higher than the pKa, the conj
