The alkalinity of natural waters is usually controlled by OH- (MW = 17.01 g/mole), CO3-2 (MW = 60.01 g/mole), and HCO3- (MW = 61.01 g/mole), which may be present singularly or in combination. Titrating a 100.0-mL sample to a phenolphthalein endpoint requires 18.67 mL of a 0.02812 M solution of HCl. A second 100.0 mL aliquot requires 48.12 mL of the same titrant to reach the methyl orange endpoint. The composition of the sample is ___________ ppm CO3-2 and _________ ppm HCO3- Note: Express final answers using least number of significant figures.
