Can you add sodium bicarbonate to your water system to raise the pH?

Yes, but I was informed not to add more than 2 pounds of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) at one time. I tried this and it does raise the pH of your swimming pool.

What does water plus sodium bicarbonate?
Sodium bicarbonate dissolves in water, that is all that will happen.
When sodium Bicarbonate decomposes it produce sodium carbonate and what else?
Sodium bicarbonate decomposes into sodium carbonate, carbon dioxide, and water.
Why did bicarbonate have an effect on pH when you mixed it with water?
Sodium bicarbonate increases the pH of water.
Is it okay to drink water with a spoonful of sodium bicarbonate everyday?
Yes . It is okay to drink water with a spoonful of sodium bicarbonate everyday.
If sodium bicarbonate reacts with water what is the result chemically?
It does not react with water, but simply dissolves in it - a physical, not chemical, reaction.
What does hydrochloric acid plus sodium bicarbonate equals?
Hydrochloric acid + Sodium Bicarbonate--------------->Sodium Chloride + Water + Carbon Dioxide
What does bicarbonate have to do with ions?
Sodium bicarbonate is dissociated in ions in a water solution:NaHCO3 = Na+ + (HCO3)-
How do you make sodium bicarbonate Test Solution not in USP?
By dissolving in water the necessary quantity to obtain the desired concentration of sodium bicarbonate.
When sodium bicarbonate is heated what will it release?
water vapour
What is the difference between sodium nitrate and sodium bicarbonate?
Sodium bicarbonate is NaHCO3, potassium carbonate is KHCO3. The difference is that sodium and potassium are two different elements, though they have very similar properties. Potassium bicarbonate is more soluble in water.
How do you raise the alkline level of your pool water?
You can raise the alkaline level if your pool water by adding sodium bicarbonate (aka baking soda). It is recommended that you raise the alkaline in small increments because it is easier to raise your total alkaline levels slightly if its a little too high or too low. This chart from swimming-pool-care.com gives out how much sodium bicarbonate to add.Desired increase in PPM1,000 gallons5,000 gallons10,000 gallons20,000 gallons50,000 gallons100,000 gallons10 ppm2.24oz11.2oz1.40lbs2.80lbs7.00lbs14.00lbs20 ppm4.48oz1.402.80lbs5.60lbs14.0lbs28lbs30 ppm6.72oz2.10lbs4.20lbs8.41lbs21lbs42lbs40 ppm8.97oz2.80lbs5.60lbs11.2lbs28lbs56lbs50 ppm11.2 oz3.50lbs7lbs14lbs35lbs70lbs60 ppm13.4 oz4.20lbs8.41lbs16.8lbs42lbs84.1lbs
How did the change in temperature affect the solubility of a sodium bicarbonate in water?
Temperature is proportional to solubility for sodium bicarbonate in water. Generally, adding heat increases solubility, as this input of energy helps break bonds.
