CO2 dissolves in water and forms H2CO3, a weak acid. Therefore, the presence of CO2 will lower the pH slightly from its previous level.
Approximate pH of 4, pH will vary based on the amount of CO2 as well as other minerals in the seltzer and the pH of the water.
A substance does not have a particular pH as pH depends on both how strong an acid/base is and how concentrated it is in a solution of water (how much is in a given volume) CO2 will react to a small degree with water to produce carbonic acid, so the pH will be less than 7. How much of the acid is produced, however depends on a number of variables such as pressure, temperature, and CO2 concentration.
CuO and CO2 (as a dry gas) has not a pH.
Absorbed carbon dioxide has an effect of lowering the pH of water.
As CO2 is added to water, the pH usually decreases.

Algae draws all available CO2 out of water, causing its pH to increase.

The concentration of carbon dioxide decrease.
No. Rather, the CO2 concentration controls the pH. Other factors control concentration, such as temperature, pressure, contamination, and availability of CO2.
Maybe the water has some CO2 dissolved in it.
The pH value of the water decreases. because carbon dioxide from the air is dissolved in and reacts with the water, releasing hydrogen ions according to the equation CO2 + H2O -> CO3-2 + 2 H+1.
we do add KCl to water for the measurement of pH to prevent CO2 from dissolution in water and forming of H2CO3
