Selected results from the output for example 3 are presented in table 16 The ground water produced by part A is in equilibrium with calcite and has a log of -2 0 as specified by the input The moles of CO 2 in the phase assemblage decreased by about 2 0 mmol which means that about 2 0 mmol dissolved into solution Likewise about 1 6 mmol of calcite dissolved
