To calculate the grams of CO2 needed to neutralize the water, we need to determine the amount of CO2 required to lower the pH from 11 to 7.

Step 1: Calculate the moles of H+ ions needed to neutralize the water:
From pH 11 to pH 7, we need to decrease the concentration of H+ ions by a factor of 10,000 (10^4).
Since water has a pH of 7, the concentration of H+ ions at pH 7 is 10^(-7) moles/L.
Therefore, the concentration of H+ ions at pH 11 is 10^(-7) * 10^4 = 10^(-3) moles/L.

Step 2: Convert the volume of water to moles:
Since we have 5 liters of water, the moles of H+ ions required is 10^(-3) moles/L * 5 L = 5 * 10^(-3) moles.

Step 3: Determine the moles of CO2 needed:
CO2 is a one of the oil reservoir fluid components with a mole percentage of 3.6%.
Therefore, the mole fraction of CO2 is 0.036 (3.6%).

The moles of CO2 needed can be calculated using the mole fraction and the moles of H+ ions:
Moles of CO2 = mole fraction of CO2 * moles of H+ ions
Moles of CO2 = 0.036 * 5 * 10^(-3) moles.

Step 4: Calculate the grams of CO2 needed:
To convert moles of CO2 to grams, we need to know its molar mass. The molar mass of CO2 is 44.01 g/mol.

The grams of CO2 needed can be calculated as follows:
Grams of CO2 = moles of CO2 * molar mass of CO2
Grams of CO2 = 0.036 * 5 * 10^(-3) moles * 44.01 g/mol.

By performing the above calculations, we can determine the grams of CO2 needed to neutralize the 5 liters of water with a pH of 11 to 7 under the specified conditions.

To determine the number of grams of CO2 needed to neutralize the water, we need to consider the stoichiometry of the acid-base reaction between CO2 and water.

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between CO2 and water is:
CO2 + H2O ⇌ H2CO3

From this equation, we can see that 1 mole of CO2 reacts with 1 mole of water to produce 1 mole of carbonic acid (H2CO3).

Given that CO2 is a component of oil reservoir fluid with a mole percent of 3.6%, we can calculate the number of moles of CO2 present in 5 liters of water as follows:
Moles of CO2 = (Mole percent of CO2/100) * Total moles of water

First, we need to calculate the total moles of water:
Total moles of water = volume of water (in liters) * molarity of water

Since the pH is given, we can calculate the molarity of the water using the formula:
Molarity = 10^(-pH)

Therefore,
Molarity of water = 10^(-11)

Total moles of water = 5 liters * (10^(-11))

Next, we can calculate the moles of CO2 using the mole percent given:
Moles of CO2 = (3.6/100) * Total moles of water

Now, to calculate the grams of CO2, we need to know the molar mass of CO2, which is approximately 44 g/mol.

Grams of CO2 = Moles of CO2 * Molar mass of CO2

Finally, substitute the values into the above equation to calculate the grams of CO2. However, to account for the pressure and temperature conditions provided, we need to consider the ideal gas law.

The ideal gas law equation is:
PV = nRT

Where:
P = Pressure (in atm)
V = Volume (in liters)
n = Number of moles
R = Ideal gas constant (0.0821 L·atm/(mol·K))
T = Temperature (in Kelvin)

To convert the given pressure (4000 psi) to atm, divide by 14.7:
Pressure = 4000 psi / 14.7

To convert the given temperature (230 °F) to Kelvin, use the formula:
Temperature in Kelvin = (Temperature in °F + 459.67) * (5/9)

Now, you can substitute the calculated values into the ideal gas law equation to determine the number of moles (n).

Once you have the value for n, you can use it to calculate the grams of CO2 using the equation mentioned earlier.

Please note that this is a simplified explanation, and additional factors (such as the partial pressure of CO2 in the oil reservoir fluid and solubility of CO2 in water) may need to be considered for a more accurate calculation. Consulting a chemistry or engineering expert in this field could provide a more precise answer.
