What is the Difference of sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate for treating swimming pool PH?

No it cannot. Sodium bicarb has a ph of 8.4. To lower ph you would need to use a dry acid (sodium bisulphate) or muriatic acid. City water is normally treated and has a ph of 7.5 but it would take a large amount of fresh water to lower the ph of a pool.

If a blood test indicates someone is in severe acidosis are you trying to remove hydrogen ions or add them to her blood?
Acidosis is a condition in which the blood pH is too low, i.e. there is too high a concentration of protons. Thus the goal in treating acidosis is to lower the concentration of protons by treating with a mild base, usually sodium bicarbonate.
How do you separate calcium carbonate from sand?
Both the components in the mixture are insoluble in water. However, calcium carbonate reacts with hydrochloric acid to form calcium chloride (which is soluble in water) whereas the sand remains unchanged. Sand can now be separated by filtration. Calcium carbonate is recovered back by treating the filtrate (calcium chloride) with sodium carbonate. After filtration is again carried out, what you have on the filter paper is calcium carbonate.
