An environmental chemist is investigating how the pH of simulated acid rain (dilute sulfuric acid) changes as it filters through a column of crushed limestone (calcium carbonate).

The chemist uses the following procedure:

Step 1: Measure 50 cm³ of simulated acid rain into a beaker.
Step 2: Use a clean glass rod to transfer a drop of the acid onto a strip of universal indicator paper and record the pH by comparing it to a colour chart.
Step 3: Pour the acid rain through a column containing 10 g of crushed limestone and collect the runoff in a clean beaker.
Step 4: Transfer a drop of the collected runoff onto a new strip of universal indicator paper and record the pH.
Step 5: Repeat steps 3 and 4 using the same liquid with fresh columns of limestone until no further change in pH is observed.
