Carbon dioxide dissolves in water to form carbonic acid

Reference no: EM13702865

Problem- Carbon dioxide dissolves in water to form carbonic acid, which is primarily dissolved CO2. Dissolved CO2 satisfies the equilibrium equation

CO2(g) [double arrow] CO2(aq) K=0.032 M. atm ^-1

The acid dissociation listed in most standard reference texts for carbonic acid actually apply to dissolved CO2. For a CO2 partial pressure of 9.9*10^-4 atm in the atmosphere, what is the ph of water with the atmosphere? For carbonic acid Ka1 = 4.46 x 10-7 , Ka2 = 4.69 x 10-11

I am in urgent need of solution of above problem with complete explanation
