Carbon dioxide dissolves in water to form carbonic acid, which is primarily dissolved CO2. Dissolved CO2 satisfies the equilibri

um equation.
CO2(g) <----> CO2(aq) The acid dissociation constants listed in most standard reference texts for carbonic acid actually apply to dissolved CO2. K=0.032 M/atm
For a CO2 partial pressure of 4.4×10-4 atm in the atmosphere, what is the pH of water in equilibrium with the atmosphere?
Note: Since carbonic acid is primarily dissolved CO2, the concentration of H2CO3 can be taken as equal to that of dissolved CO2.
My online homework is due tonight and I am hopelessly lost on how to solve this problem. :(

C = pK 
<span>C = 4.4E-4*0.032 = about 1.41E-5 </span>

<span>H2CO3 ==> H^+ + HCO3^- </span>

<span>k1 = (H^+)(HCO3^-)/(H2CO3) </span>
<span>(H^+)= (HCO3^-) = x </span>
<span>(H2CO3) = 1.41E-5 </span>
<span>Solve for x = (H^+) and convert to pH. </span>

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

6,97x10⁻³ gallons

Explanation:

pH is defined as:

pH = -log [H⁺]

Thus, you need to have, in the end:

10⁻⁷ = [H⁺]

And you have, in the first:

10^{-9,33} = [H⁺]

The volume of swimming pool is:

700'000 galllons ×\frac{3,78541 L}{1 gallon} = 2649787 L

Thus, the moles of H⁺ in the first and in the end are:

First:

10^{-9,33}mol/L × 2649787L = 1,24x10⁻³ moles

End:

10^{-7}mol/L × 2649787L = 0,265 moles

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

0,265 - 1,24x10⁻³ = <em>0,26376 moles</em>

These moles comes from 10M HCl, thus, the volume in gallons you need to add are:

0,26376moles*\frac{1L}{10moles}* \frac{1gallon}{3,78541L} =

<em>6,97x10⁻³ gallons</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

Which of these is a unique property of bases?
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

A. Feels slippery

Explanation:

Bases are the only types of compounds that have a slippery feel.

B is <em>wrong</em><em>.</em> Most bases do not contain carbon, but organic compounds always do.

C is <em>wrong</em>. Aqueous solutions of bases conduct electricity, but so do aqueous solutions of salts.

D is <em>wrong</em>. Most bases have a bitter taste. Acids have a sour taste.

Concentration and ion moles are equal only when volume is what ?
siniylev [52]

Concentration and ion moles are equal only when volume is  1. Of 1.0 x 10-6 and 1.0 x 10-4, the larger number is 1.
