From googling and some observations. 1) If there is CO2 in the air, ocean must be saturated and any additional won't make any difference. If ocean is saturated, it's ph must be 5.5. It isn't, it's a little above7. 2) Only small portion of dissolved CO2 forms carbonic acid. 3) Forget the reef. Carbonic acid reacts with sand which covers ocean floor, ie, a vast CO2 sink. So it looks like there is a continuous process of CO2 (actually carbonic acid) reacting with the ocean floor and being absorbed from atmosphere. 4) What is reaction between sand (SiO2) and carbonic acid, ie, what are the products? Harmful? Why can't you find it googling? |

Does the ocean look carbonated to you? olyz wrote: If ocean is saturated, it's ph must be 5.5. It isn't, it's a little above7. Actually, sodas are much less than that. From "The pH of beverages in the United States" I believe a better estimate for the ocean's average pH to be around 8.2, but that's just me. olyz wrote: 3) Forget the reef. Carbonic acid reacts with sand which covers ocean floor, ie, a vast CO2 sink. The carbonic acide never gets to the bottom. The vast bulk of any carbonic acid arrives via rain. It's the water on top, and it evaporates releasing the CO2 back into the atmosphere. It never gets to the bottom floor. Any other carbonic acid that flows in from other sources mixes with the 8.2 pH and, due to the rather large quantity of ocean water, becomes 8.2 pH. olyz wrote:So it looks like there is a continuous process of CO2 (actually carbonic acid) reacting with the ocean floor and being absorbed from atmosphere.

olyz wrote: That CO2 must be at it's maximum concentration in the water because there is CO2 in the air doesn't sound right. When I think about "Saturation" I remember making cool aid as a kid. There is a literal maximum to how sweet you can get water with sugar, beyond which it will no longer dissolve and gather at the botton as a solid. The difference with CO2 is that it's not being generated on the ocean floor and bubbling up to the surface, so that any CO2 the water can absorb it will. So there would be CO2 in the air anyway, even if the water was going to absorb it at the first opportunity. So if club soda is the max acidity from CO2, just like cool aid with sugar settled in solid form on the bottom is the max sweetness, then a Ph of 3-4 is what the ocean would be if it was maxed out, and not 8.1.

How is the CO2 getting into the ocean from the atmosphere in the first place? Water is much more dense than CO2, a liquid, and heavier. CO2 is a gas, and isn't likely to just dive right in there, and go for a swim on it's own. When you drink only half a bottle of a carbonated beverage, and let it set a while, even with the cap on, it goes flat. CO2 doesn't stay in solution, was it ever really dissolved? It's a mixture, not a solution, or even water soluble. To get a Carbonic acid, it needs to be in a closed container. It's just another one of those shady things that work in a jar, in laboratories, but doesn't work the same way naturally. Just like 'Green House' gasses are only special, in laboratory jars and artificial lights, they don't have the same capacity/opportunity to be special in nature. I tend to believe that much of the 'Climate Change' crap is based on similar 'science', where things that only work in a lab, don't actually apply in a natural setting, or to any significant extent. |

SiO2 does not react to acids. Sand not relevant. My mistake. Ph of ocean is 8.1 Ph of CO2 saturated solution is 5.5. STP. CO2 gets into water same way O2 does: impingement of molecules at the surface. If you seal a jar with pure water and air, eventually all the CO2 dissolves or water becomes saturated (indicated by continued presence of CO2 in the air). In the case of the ocean, dissolved CO2 (actually carbonic acid in equilibrium with CO2) reacts with basic material in the ocean allowing more CO2 to dissolve. It's a continuous process. There is a lot of basic material in the ocean. That's why ph of ocean isn't 5.5. |

The oceans contain a whole lot of water, which is a long way from being saturated with anything. Atmospheric CO2, at 0.04% isn't significant at all. Even if you could 'force' every CO2 molecule into the oceans, it would change anything enough to raise any concern. Only a very small portion, of that already tiny, 0.04% of the CO2, comes in contact with the oceans, in reality, no way to actually measure it, or calculate the possible effect. Basically, what you are doing, is taking some estimated numbers, working it out on paper, then trying to say it applies on a global scale, which it doesn't actually work that way, just on paper. It involves ignoring a whole lot of more significant details, just to make it simple, and illustrate a fantasy. |

Just more hand waving that it applies to everything and more asserting that the greenhouse effect 'violates' it.- Ceist |
