Lakes have a natural buffering capacity, especially in regions
where limestone gives rise to dissolved calcium carbonate. Write an
equation to show what happens when a small amount of acid rain
containing sulphuric acid falls into a lake containing carbonate
(CO3 2-)ions. Write a sentence or two describing how a lake might
resist further pH changes.
