The equilibrium between carbon dioxide gas and carbonic acid is very important in biology and environmental science.
CO2 (aq) + H2O (l) H2CO3 (aq)
Which one of the following is the correct equilibrium constant expression (Kc) for this reaction?
a) K =[H2CO3]/ [CO2]
b) K=[CO2]/ [H2CO3]
c) K=[H2CO3]/ [CO2][H2O]
d) K=[CO2][H2O]/ [H2CO3]
e) K=1/[H2CO3
