Determining pecent contribution to alkalinity from a solution.
For a solution having .0025 equivalents/liter total alkalinity (contributions from HCO3-, CO3-- and OH- (hydroxide)) at [H+] = 4.69E-11, what is the percentage contribution to alkalinity from CO3--?
Hint: Calculate the bicarbonate concentration and the contribution of the bicarbonate to the total alkalinity.
