  2. Sodium carbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_carbonate

    Sodium carbonate decahydrate (Na 2 CO 3 ·10H 2 O), also known as washing soda, is the most common hydrate of sodium carbonate containing 10 molecules of water of crystallization. Soda ash is dissolved in water and crystallized to get washing soda.

  3. Soda lake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soda_lake

    Lake Shala, in the East African Rift Valley. A soda lake or alkaline lake is a lake on the strongly alkaline side of neutrality, typically with a pH value between 9 and 12. They are characterized by high concentrations of carbonate salts, typically sodium carbonate (and related salt complexes), giving rise to their alkalinity.

  4. Henderson–Hasselbalch equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henderson–Hasselbalch...

    The ocean contains a natural buffer system to maintain a pH between 8.1 and 8.3. [11] The oceans buffer system is known as the carbonate buffer system. [12] The carbonate buffer system is a series of reactions that uses carbonate as a buffer to convert into bicarbonate. [12]

  5. Carbonated water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonated_water

    A normal, healthy human body maintains pH equilibrium via acid–base homeostasis and will not be materially adversely affected by consumption of plain carbonated water. [20] Carbon dioxide in the blood is expelled through the lungs. Alkaline salts, such as sodium bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate, or potassium citrate, will increase pH.

  6. Alkalinity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkalinity

    When carbonate minerals, water, and the atmosphere are all in equilibrium, the reversible reaction CaCO 3 + 2 H + ⇌ Ca 2+ + CO 2 + H 2 O. shows that pH will be related to calcium ion concentration, with lower pH going with higher calcium ion concentration.

  7. pH - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PH

    The pH range is commonly given as zero to 14, but a pH value can be less than 0 for very concentrated strong acids or greater than 14 for very concentrated strong bases. [2] The pH scale is traceable to a set of standard solutions whose pH is established by international agreement. [3]

  8. Alkali soil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkali_soil

    The SAR should not be much higher than 20 and preferably less than 10; When the soil has been exposed to water with a certain SAR value for some time, the ESP value tends to become about equal to the SAR value. The residual sodium carbonate (RSC, meq/L): [5] The formula for calculating the residual sodium carbonate is:

  9. Metabolic acidosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metabolic_acidosis

    Metabolic acidosis is a serious electrolyte disorder characterized by an imbalance in the body's acid-base balance.Metabolic acidosis has three main root causes: increased acid production, loss of bicarbonate, and a reduced ability of the kidneys to excrete excess acids. [5]
