Summary: | Questions, comments or suggestions about this model may be sent to Dr. Leigh Little, llittle@brockport.edu, The College at Brockport. The intent of this lesson plan is to demonstrate a physiological model of the blood buffer system using an Excel Worksheet to calculate Henderson-Hasselbalch Equations for Bicarbonate/Carbonic Acid Buffer pair in Blood and an Agentsheets game to see a visual representation of the chemical process within the body. This will incorporate LeChatelier’s principle in regards to the equilibrium of acids and bases in a buffer system and show how to calculate the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation to understand the ratio of acid to base equilibrium. The primary file is a lesson plan, accompanied by supplemental files. In the supplemental zipped files, you will find: Student worksheets Lesson plan Powerpoint presentations SUNY Brockport Lesson Plans
