Question
A sample of river water at 20°C is analyzed and the
following parameters are found for it:
Phenolphthalein alkalinity = 5.8 ×10-6 M,
Total alkalinity = 2.8 × 10-5 M;
pH = 8.5
Hardness = 10.0 mg CaCO3/L;
[Mg2+] = 3.8 x 10-5 M
Calculate the concentrations of [Ca2+], [CO3 2-] and
[HCO3 - ] in this water sample.
