WATER –
Water is the principal and essential constituent of the body.
The total body water in a normal adult male comprises 50-70% (average 60%) of the body weight and about 10% less in a normal adult female (average 50%).
Thus, the body of a normal male weighing 65 kg contains approximately 40 litres of water.
The total body water (assuming average of 60%) is distributed into 2 main compartments of body fluids separated from each other by membranes freely permeable to water.
i) Intracellular fluid compartment This comprises about
33% of the body weight, the bulk of which is contained in the muscles.
ii) Extracellular fluid compartment This constitutes the

Mass spectrometry is an analytical technique that measures the mass-to-charge ratio of molecules to determine molecular weights and identify unknown chemical compounds. It works by first ionizing molecules, then separating the ions by mass in the mass analyzer, and detecting the ions to produce a mass spectrum. The spectrum shows the masses of molecules in a sample and can be used to quantify known compounds and study molecular structure and properties.
This document discusses different types of isomerism including structural isomerism and stereoisomerism. Structural isomerism occurs when compounds have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas. Types of structural isomerism include chain isomerism, positional isomerism, and functional group isomerism. Chain isomerism involves compounds having the same molecular formula but different carbon chain structures. Positional isomerism involves compounds having functional groups at different positions. Functional group isomerism involves compounds having different functional groups. Stereoisomerism occurs when compounds have the same connectivity of atoms but different arrangements in space.

Hybridisation and Method of preparation of alkenes.pptNIDHI GUPTA
Alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons that contain a carbon-carbon double bond functional group. Ethylene (C2H4) is an example alkene. The carbon atoms in alkenes adopt sp2 hybridization, resulting in a flat structure with 120 degree bond angles between atoms. An alkene's double bond consists of one sigma bond and one pi bond between the carbon atoms, restricting rotation about the double bond.
This document discusses the preparation and properties of amines. It describes four types of amines based on the number of carbons bonded to the nitrogen atom. Amines can be prepared through ammonolysis reactions, where an amine or ammonia displaces a halide on a primary or methyl halide. This produces primary, secondary, tertiary, or quaternary amines depending on the starting material. Amines have relatively high melting and boiling points due to hydrogen bonding between molecules. They are basic and can turn litmus blue, with solubility in water depending on the carbon chain length.
Primary amines react with alkyl halides to form secondary amines. Primary and secondary amines react with acyl halides and anhydrides to form amides through nucleophilic attack of the amine on the carbonyl group. Benzenesulphonyl chloride reacts with primary and secondary amines to form sulphonamides. Primary amines react with nitrous acid to form alcohols, while secondary amines form oily nitrosoamines through the Libermann reaction. Tertiary amines form salts with nitrous acid.

27. PHYSIOLOGICAL ACID BASE BALANCE
Body fluids have balanced quantities of acid and base. They should be well
balanced.
The maintenance of normal range within the body has been essential
because the biochemical reaction taking place in the living system are very
sensitive to even small changes in acidity or alkalinity.
The pH values of certain body fluids are given in table 3:
Table 3: pH of body fluids
Sr. no. Body fluids pH range
1 Urine 4.5-8.0
2 Blood 7.4-7.5
3 Gastric juice 1.5-3.5
4 Saliva 5.4-7.5
5 Bile 6.0-8.5
6 Semen 7.2-7.6
28. ACIDOSIS AND ALKALOSIS
pH of blood of a healthy person is constant around 7.35.
If pH becomes low, acidosis results.
If pH level is high, alkalosis results.
Even the strong acids and bases are continually taken into and
formed by the body, pH of the fluid inside and outside the cells
remains constant due to the presence of buffer system.
Buffer systems are only effective when there is a mechanism by which
excess acid or alkali can be excreted out of the body which is best
done by lungs and kidneys.
Electrolytes play a vital role in regulating the body’s acid-base
balance. It is maintained by controlling the H+ conc. of body fluids.
29. In healthy adults, extra-cellular fluid pH range is between 7.35-7.45
and the normal H+ conc. in body fluids is only 40mEq/litre.
Most of the metabolic reactions takes place within a very narrow pH
range, controlling the H+ conc. is essential for survival and is done by
below mentioned mechanisms:
1. Buffer system
2. Elimination of some ions through urine by kidney.
3. Through the respiratory centre.
30. 1. BUFFER SYSTEMS
Buffer system consist of weak acid and its salts.
Buffer helps to restrict the changes in the pH of body fluids by
converting strong acid and base into weak acids and base.
Buffers are able to remove the excess H+ from the body fluids but not
from the body.
Buffer system exists in the body fluids are follows;-
I. Carbonic acid-bicarbonate buffer system
II. Phosphate buffer system
III. Protein (hemoglobin) buffer system
31. 2. Elimination of some ions through urine by kidney-
Absorption of certain ions and elimination of others are able to control
the acid base balance of blood and thus the body fluids.
3. Through the respiratory centre –
Change in rate of breathing is able to control the removal of CO2
from
body fluid which gives rise to changes in pH of blood carbonic acid.
