Q. What is the chemical equation of the formation of bicarbonate from water and carbon dioxide? What is the enzyme that catalyzes this reaction?

The chemical equation of the chemical equilibrium of the formation of bicarbonate having as reagents water and carbon dioxide is as follows: alveoli occurs by simple diffusion in

CO + HO --> H CO --> H+ + HCO - favor of the partial pressure gradient.

When the oxygen partial pressure in the inhaled air is higher than the oxygen partial pressure of the capillaries of the alveoli the air diffuses to the circulatory system if the oxygen partial pressure in the air is lower a rare situation since the blood that reaches the alveoli is venous blood the oxygen exits the circulatory system, the same is true for carbon dioxide.
