Question

Ph of blood does not appreciate lee change by small addition of acid or base because

Answer 1

You might know that blood is a buffer, so on addition of any acid or base (in slight amounts) leads no (or) non - considerable change in ph.

Actually the mechanism going on is:

When you add an acid (or) base in this aqueous solution, salt hydrolysis happens, so further buffer action is reduced.But this happen until a range where buffer doesn't break its capacity.
