Carbon dioxide enters the waters of the ocean by simple diffusion. Once dissolved
in seawater, the carbon dioxide can remain as is or can be converted into carbonate (CO3-2) or
bicarbonate (HCO3-). When CO2 enters the ocean, carbonic acid is formed: CO2 + H2O ?
H2CO3 This reaction has a forward and reverse rate. These two reqctions achieve a chemical
equilibrium in which they both occur at equal rates, thus mainting a relatively stable ratio of CO2
to H2CO3. Another reaction that is important in controlling the acidity (i.e. pH levels) of the
oceans is the release of hydrogen ions and bicarbonate: H2CO3 ? H+ + HCO3- This reaction
buffers seawater against large changes in pH. Certain forms of sea life biologically fix
bicarbonate with calcium (Ca+2) to produce calcium carbonate (CaCO3). This substance is used
to produce shells and other hard body parts by organisms such as coral, clams, oysters, some
protozoa, and some algae. When these organisms die, their shells and body parts sink to the
ocean floor where they accumulate as carbonate-rich deposits. After long periods of time, these
deposits are physically and chemically altered into sedimentary rocks. Ocean deposits are by far
the biggest sink of carbon on the plane

Carbon dioxide enters the waters of the ocean by .pdf

  • 1. Carbon dioxide enters the waters of the ocean by simple diffusion. Once dissolved in seawater, the carbon dioxide can remain as is or can be converted into carbonate (CO3-2) or bicarbonate (HCO3-). When CO2 enters the ocean, carbonic acid is formed: CO2 + H2O ? H2CO3 This reaction has a forward and reverse rate. These two reqctions achieve a chemical equilibrium in which they both occur at equal rates, thus mainting a relatively stable ratio of CO2 to H2CO3. Another reaction that is important in controlling the acidity (i.e. pH levels) of the oceans is the release of hydrogen ions and bicarbonate: H2CO3 ? H+ + HCO3- This reaction buffers seawater against large changes in pH. Certain forms of sea life biologically fix bicarbonate with calcium (Ca+2) to produce calcium carbonate (CaCO3). This substance is used to produce shells and other hard body parts by organisms such as coral, clams, oysters, some protozoa, and some algae. When these organisms die, their shells and body parts sink to the ocean floor where they accumulate as carbonate-rich deposits. After long periods of time, these deposits are physically and chemically altered into sedimentary rocks. Ocean deposits are by far the biggest sink of carbon on the plane Solution Carbon dioxide enters the waters of the ocean by simple diffusion.
