Reef Chemistry Question of the Day #226
If I wanted to dissolve additional solid calcium carbonate into a water sample, which of the following solutions would dissolve the most, assuming I waited long enough for the solution to reach equilibrium with normal air?
A. Pure fresh water at 20 deg C
B. Pure fresh water at 80 deg C
C. 35 ppt normal seawater at 20 deg C
D. 35 ppt normal seawater at 80 deg C?
Good luck!
