The binding of oxygen by hemoglobin (Hb), giving oxyhemoglobin (HbO2), is partially regulated by the concentration of H3O+ and dissolved CO2 in the blood. Although the equilibrium is complicated, it can be summarized as
HbO2(aq) + H3 O+(aq) + CO2(g) ⇌ CO2 −Hb−H+ + O2(g) + H2 O(l)
(a) Write the equilibrium constant expression for this reaction.
