CO ₂ goes to air, causes green house effect and gets dissolved in water. What will be the effect on soil fertility and pH of the water?

Options

  1. AIncreases
  2. BDecreases
  3. CRemain same
  4. DNone of these

Correct answer

B. Decreases

Step-by-step solution

CO ₂+ H ₂ O H ₂ CO ₃ H ⁺+ HCO ₃⁻ Here [ H ⁺ ] increases hence, pH decreases due to which soil fertility will also decreases.
