A water contains the following: C(tot, CO3) = 5 x 10-3M, C(tot, PO4) = 1 x 10-3 M, and C(tot, NH3) = 1 x 10-4 M. The water has a pH of 7.7, and the alkalinity endpoint is set at pH 4.5. What is the alkalinity, in meq/L, of this water. Express your answer in meq/L to the nearest hundredth (y.yy meq/L).

We dissolve 2.77 g of an unknown acid, HA, in enough water to produce 25.0 mL of solution. The pH of this solution of HA(aq) is 1.33. We titrate this solution with a 0.250 M solution of NaOH. It takes 41.8 mL of the NaOH solution to reach the equivalence point. (a) What is the molar mass of HA? (b) What is the pKa value of HA(aq)? (c) What is the pH at the equivalence point? (d) What is the pH one third along the titration when you still have twice as much HA(aq) as A-(aq)?

Rainwater is slightly acidic due to dissolved CO₂. Use the following data to calculate the pH of unpolluted rainwater at 22.6°C: vol % in air of CO₂ = 0.063 vol%; solubility of CO2 in pure water at 22.6°C and 1.09 atm is 79.29 mL CO2 per 100 mL, K₁1 of H₂CO3 = 5.27x10-7. Express the pH with 2 decimals. You might have to solve a quadratic.
1. You are taking samples at a contaminated mine site from a carbonate aquifer to determine the concentration of dissolved lead in the sample. To preserve the sample, you acidify it to pH 5. How much HCl, in equivalents/L, must be added to this sample to make it pH 5 if the total carbonate concentration is 102 M and the initial pH is 10? Note that the total carbonate is the sum of all of the carbonate species ([H2CO3]+[HCO3] + [CO2]) present in the sample. What are the acid-base pairs responsible for buffering in this sample?
To rule out metabolic acidosis in a patient's blood sample, the total carbon dioxide content should be measured (HCO3-+CO2), this was determined by acidifying the sample and measuring the volume of CO2 released. The concentration of H2CO3 was 28.5 mmol/L, the pH of the blood at 37 ℃ is 7.48 with a pka of 6.10, what is the concentration of HCO3- in mmol/L in the blood? a) 27.36b) 22.77c) 28.50d) 29.60
As part of the analysis of water samples, the hardness of water is commonly measured and calculated. It is commonly expressed in ppm by mass (parts per million) of CaCO3. Parts per million is also equivalent to milligrams of CACO3 per liter of water. In a sample taken by an environmentalist, he was able to observe a hardness count of 205 mg CacO3/L. Given this hardness count of the sample, what is the molar concentration of Ca2+ ions in the water sample?
A student prepares a solution for titration by adding a 10.00 mL aliquot of a solution saturated with Ca(OH)2 at 82.9°C to 25.0 mL of deionized water. This solution is titrated with a standardized 0.01252 M HCl solution. The equivalence point is observed after 17.94 mL of the HCl solution has been added. Calculate the moles and molarity of OH- and Ca2+ in the 10.00ml sample.
