Carbon dioxide dissolves in water to form carbonic acid

Reference no: EM13713746

Question- Carbon dioxide dissolves in water to form carbonic acid, which is primarily dissolved CO2. Dissolved CO2 satisfies the equilibrium equation. The acid dissociation constants listed in most standard reference texts for carbonic acid actually apply to dissolved CO2. For a CO2 partial pressure of 7.7×10-4 bar in the atmosphere, what is the pH of water in equilibrium with the atmosphere? (For carbonic acid Ka1 = 4.46× 10-7 and Ka2 = 4.69× 10-11).

I want you to explicate the chemistry in this problem
