Seltzer water is just water that has been infused with carbon dioxide.
Carbon dioxide can change the pH of water. This is how it works:
Carbon dioxide dissolves slightly in water to form a weak acid called carbonic acid, H2CO3, according to the following reaction:
CO2 + H2O --> H2CO3
After that, carbonic acid reacts slightly and reversibly in water to form a hydronium cation, H3O+, and the bicarbonate ion, HCO3-, according to the following reaction:
H2CO3 + H2O --> HCO3- + H3O+
This chemical behaviour explains why water, which normally has a neutral pH of 7 has an acidic pH of approximately 5.5 when it has been exposed to air.

∙ 12y agoin theory pure water is neutral with a pH of 7 but because it is so miscible and everything readily dissolves in it . it becomes slightly acidic because of carbon dioxide in our air dissolving in it and making carbolic acid
Wiki User
