Heterogeneous equilibrium.CO2dissolves in water to give "carbonic acid" (which is mostly dissolvedCO2, as described in Box 6-4).

CO2(g)饾啅CO2(aq)K=10-1.5

(The equilibrium constant is called the Henry's law constant for carbon dioxide, because Henry's law states that the solubility of a gas in a liquid is proportional to the pressure of the gas.) The acid dissociation constants listed for "carbonic acid" in Appendix G apply toCO2(aq). Given thatPCO2in the atmosphere is 10-3.4atm, find the pHof water in equilibrium with the atmosphere.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The pH of a solution:pH=5.67

Step by step solution

01

Definition of Henrys law

  • When the temperature is held constant, Henry's law states that the amount of gas dissolved in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas above the liquid.
02

Determine the carbonic acid

Heterogeneous equilibriumCO2carbonic acid is produced when it dissolves in water :K=10-1.5CO2g饾啅CO2aq

Because of this,pCO2there is in the atmosphererole="math" localid="1654939333790" 10-3.4atm, the pH of water will be found to be in equilibrium with the atmosphere.

It'll start by looking for the:#c34632;>Carbonic acid is formalised by the following formula:

H2CO3=CO2aq-KpCO2H2CO3=10-1510-3.4=10-4.9M

03

Determine the x value

Consider the reaction

H2CO3饾啅H2CO3-+H+

Then you should write something like this:

H2CO3=10-4.9-xH2CO3=xH+=x

It has a value of for carbonic acid.Ka1=4.4010-7

Calculate the value of x using the values from the previous step:

Ka1=x210-4.9-x4.4610-7=x210-4.9-xx=2.1610-6M

04

Determine the pH value

X is thought to have a value of x=H+so that we can figure out what a solution's pH is:

pH=-logH+pH=-log2.1610-6=5.67
