has great significance to environmental and chemical engineers. It can be
related processes ranging from such as pipe corrosion to acid rain. The pH
is related to the hydrogen ion concentration [H+]
by  The
following 5 equations govern the concentrations of a mixture of carbon
dioxide and water for a closed system
     where
Alk = the alkalinity, cT = total inorganic carbon, and
the K’s are equilibrium coefficients. The five unknowns are
[CO2] = carbon dioxide,
[HCO3-] = bicarbonate,
[CO32-] = carbonate,
[H+] = hydrogen ion, and
[OH-] = hydroxyl ion. Solve for
the five unknowns given that Alk = 2´10-3, cT =
3´10-3, K1 =
10-6.3, K2 =
10-10.3, and
Kw =
