= (s) at pH=7.3 and C1 = 10–M. 411 Your backyard pond (a nice little water body with a stable groundwater source) had a pH of 8.2 in April. The pH measured now (November) is 7.5, and when you bubble a sample with air, the pH goes to 7.7. a. Why do these pH differences occur? b. What would have been the measured pH if you had bubbled a sample in April? c. Calculate the alkalinity and the total carbonate content of the pond in April and November.
