You notice that the water in your friend's swimming pool is cloudy and that the pool walls are discolored at the water line. A q

uick analysis reveals that the pH of the water is 8.40 when it should be 7.20. The pool is 7.00 m wide, 18.0 m long, and has an average depth of 1.50m What is the minimum (in the absence of any buffering capacity) volume (mL) of 12.0 wt% H2SO4 (SG 1.080) that should be added to return the pool to the desired pH? mL

Answer:

3,78 mL of 12,0wt% H₂SO₄

Explanation:

The equilibrium in water is:

H₂O (l) ⇄ H⁺ (aq) + OH⁻ (aq)

The initial concentration of [H⁺] is 10⁻⁸ M and final desired concentration is [H⁺] = 10^{-7,2}

Thus, you need to add:

[H⁺] = 10^{-7,2} - 10^{-8} = <em>5,31x10⁻⁸ M</em>

The total volume of the pool is:

7,00 m × 18,0 m ×1,50 m = 189 m³ ≡ 189000 L

Thus, moles of H⁺ you need to add are:

5,31x10⁻⁸ M × 189000 L = 1,00<em>x10⁻² moles of H⁺</em>

These moles comes from

H₂SO₄ → 2H⁺ +SO₄²⁻

Thus:

1,00x10⁻² moles of H⁺ × \frac{1 H_{2}SO_{4} moles}{2H^+ mole} = <em>5,00x10⁻³ moles of H₂SO₄</em>

These moles comes from:

5,00x10⁻³ moles of H₂SO₄ × \frac{98,1g}{1mol} × \frac{100 gsolution}{12 g H_{2}SO_{4} } × \frac{1mL}{1,080 g} = <em>3,78 mL of 12,0wt% H₂SO₄</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!
