Dissolved carbon dioxide and ph in the oceans are inversely related. a. true b. false

pH of the buffer solution is 1.76

Explanation:

To find the pH of a buffer we can use Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = pKa + log [A⁻] / [HA]

Where pKa is -log Ka= 1.77 And [A⁻] is molar concentration of conjugate base, NaHSO₃ and [HA] molar concentration of weak acid, H₂SO₃

Replacing values of the problem:

pH = 1.77 + log [0.304M] / [0.310M]

pH = 1.76
