your reasoning Choose A or B A H or B OH Example Ca 2 10 3 3 M CO32 10 5 M 64 Solution B Because CO32 will take up H OH will be higher i e pH 7 HCO3 H CO32 HCO3 H CO32 65 Now we know that pH 7 For the following pairs of species in solution determine at equilibrium which has the higher molar concentration mol L Choose A or B A HCO3 or B CO2 aq 2 CO2aq A Because OH is higher pH is above 6 3 pKa so
