What else can I help you with?
How could you raise the pH of an acid like vinegar to a neutral or higher pH?
lower PH
Does muredic acid raise or lower pH in a pool?
Acid lowers the PH number. You want the pH to be between 7.0 and 7.4. To raise the ph you can use baking soda.
What will result if sodium bicarbonate is used to lower ph in a swimming pool?
Using sodium bicarbonate to lower pH in a swimming pool is not effective. Sodium bicarbonate, or baking soda, is typically used to raise pH levels in pools. To lower pH in a pool, an acid such as muriatic acid or sodium bisulfate should be used.
How do you lower or higher pH level in your water?
To lower pH in water, you can add acidic substances like vinegar or citric acid. To raise pH, you can add alkaline substances like baking soda or calcium hydroxide. It's important to add these substances slowly and test the pH frequently to avoid drastic changes.
What does adding caustic soda to water raise or lower the pH?
Adding caustic soda (sodium hydroxide) to water raises the pH because it is a strong base that increases the concentration of hydroxide ions in the solution, making it more alkaline.
How much acid to add to water to pH9?
To raise the pH of water from neutral (pH 7) to pH 9, you would need to add an acid in small amounts while monitoring the pH. It is recommended to use a pH meter or test strips to accurately measure the pH and slowly add the acid until reaching pH 9. The exact amount of acid needed would depend on the volume of water and the strength of the acid being used.
Which acid has a pH of 6 or lower?
The pH depends not only on the acid but also on its concentration. That said, any acid that doesn't have a pH of 6 or lower is hardly deserving of the name.
Can you use muriatic acid to raise the cyanuric acid level?
No, muriatic acid is used to lower pH and total alkalinity levels in pool water, not to raise cyanuric acid levels. To raise cyanuric acid levels, you would typically use cyanuric acid stabilizer or conditioner.
It is determined that a patient is in acidosis What does this mean and would you treat the condition with a chemical that would raise or lower the pH?
The patient has excessive acid in the body fluids. You would treat the patient with a chemical that would raise the pH (lower pH=more acidic, so you need to raise the pH because higher pH=more basic)
How does pH enter freshwater?
Water will always have a pH. pH is a measure of how acidic or basic a solution is. Intruduction of basic substances such as carbonates will raise pH. Introduction of acidic substances such as carbonic or sulfuric acid will lower pH.
On the pH scale what is the pH of an acid?
0 - 6.9 The lower the pH number the higher the concentration of hydronium ions and higher the strength of acid
How do you raise the chlorine and lower the pH alkalinity in your pool?
To raise chlorine levels, you can add chlorine shock or chlorine tablets to the pool. To lower pH and alkalinity, you can use muriatic acid or pH decreaser. It's important to test the water regularly and make gradual adjustments to avoid overcorrecting levels.
