Carbonic acid is a weak diprotic acid whose dissociationreactions are:
H2CO3 (aq) + H2O (l) --> (forward/reverse arrow) H3O+ (aq) +HCO3- (aq) Ka1= 4.3 x 10^-7
HCO3^- (aq) + H2O (l) --> (forward/reverse arrow) H3O+ (aq) +CO3^2- (aq) Ka2= 4.8 x 10^-11
a. What is the equilibrium pH of a carbonic acid solution, whoseoriginal concentration is 0.034 M?
b. What are the concentrations of the other two species?
Calculate the concentration of each species in the equations at a wavelength of: 624.0383911 and Absorption: 0.242581636 Also at wavelegnth of: 418.9806824 and Absorpotion: 0.096807577. With 17ml of DI water at 60psi.
CO2 (g)---> CO2(aq)
CO2 (aq) + H2O --> H2CO3 (aq)
H2CO3 (aq) + H2O (liq) --> H3O+ + HCO3-
HCO3- + H2O (liq) --> H3O+ + CO32-
