Baking soda does raise your blood pressure.

Since Baking soda raises blood pressure and if your blood pressure is high then there will be a higher diffusion of Nutrients, O2, Proteins at the arterial end of the capillary into the Interstitial Fluid due to a higher pressure gradient and thus at the venous end of the capillary a low concentration of CO2 (produced by the cells) will diffuse from the interstitial fluid into the venous end of the capillary.

So overall the dissolved CO2 in the blood will be low. So how does CO2 relate to pH?

we know that CO2 combines with H2O to form Carbonic Acid; Carbonic Acid in turn disassociates to form H+ and HCO3-

CO2 + H20 --> H2CO3 --> H+ + HCO3-

Since the CO2 level in the blood is low there will be Less H+ in the blood and therefore the pH of the blood will be high, Causing Alkalosis.

Should you use baking soda or soda ash to raise the ph level of your pool?

Use Soda Ash to increase the PH level. Baking soda can be used to maintain the alkalinity of the pool water. Just the opposite!!!! Baking Soda will increase or raise the alk. Soda Ash raises the pH. Muriatic Acid lowers pH. k


What household chemical is used to raise pH in swimming pools?

By adding baking soda, you can raise the pool's pH. Baking soda, or sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) is a base, which neutralizes acidity.

Can you use baking soda to raise pH levels in hot tub?

You can use baking soda to raise the pH level in a hot tub, however soda ash will work better. Borax even better than that. The issue with baking soda is that it more readily raises Total Alkalinity so will have a larger effect on TA rather than pH.

Can bleach baking soda and borax all be added at the same time to a 30000 pool?

Yes, but it's not generally a good idea. Both will tend to raise your pH. If your pH is too low, add the borax first, to get it to at least 7.0. Then you can add baking soda, if you need to increase your alkalinity. BUT, you should check your alkalinity after you raise your pH -- it will be higher, and you may not need the baking soda.
