Question 1120059: Consider a situation in which acid rain has heavily polluted a lake to a level of pH 3. An unscrupulous chemical company dumps some acid into the lake illegally. Assume that the lake contains 120 million gallons of water and that the company dumps 120,000 gallons of acid with pH 1.
Suppose that the unpolluted lake, without acid rain, would have a pH of 6. If the lake were then polluted by company acid alone (no acid rain), what hydrogen ion concentration left bracket Upper H Superscript plus Baseline right bracket comma would it have? Round to the nearest power of ten, as necessary.
