You notice that the water in a friend's swimming pool is cloudy and that the pool walls are discolored at the waterline. A quick test shows that the pH of the water is 8.0 when it should be 7.2 The pool is 5 m wide, 12 m long, and has a depth of 2 meters. What volume in mL of 5.00 wt% sulfuric acid (SG = 1.03) should be added to return the pool to the desired pH?

In a titration, 10.543 mL of a 1.112 M weak acid solution are placed in a 125 mL Erlenmeyer flask. A 1.249 M solution of NaOH (aq) is placed in the buret and filled to the 0.00 mL mark. NaOH solution is added to the flask and the buret reading is now 18.119. What is the pH of the solution? Enter your answer with at least 4 sig figs. The pKa of the weak acid is 4.954. (please type answer not write by hend)
Lakes have a natural buffering capacity, especially in regions where limestone gives rise to dissolved calcium carbonate. Write an equation for the effect of a small amount of acid rain containing sulfuric acid if it falls into alake containing carbonate (CO3-2 ) ions. Discuss how the lake will resist further pH changes. What happens if a large excess of acid rain is deposited?
