  2. Bicarbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicarbonate

    In inorganic chemistry, bicarbonate (IUPAC-recommended nomenclature: hydrogencarbonate [2]) is an intermediate form in the deprotonation of carbonic acid. It is a polyatomic anion with the chemical formula H C O − 3. Bicarbonate serves a crucial biochemical role in the physiological pH buffering system. [3]

  3. Dissolved inorganic carbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissolved_inorganic_carbon

    Aqueous carbon dioxide reacts with water to form carbonic acid which is very unstable and will dissociate rapidly into hydronium and bicarbonate. Therefore, in seawater, dissolved inorganic carbon is commonly referred to as the collection of bicarbonate, carbonate ions, and dissolved carbon dioxide (CO 2 , H 2 CO 3 , HCO −

  4. Bicarbonate buffer system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicarbonate_buffer_system

    By Le Chatelier's principle, the release of CO 2 from the lungs pushes the reaction above to the left, causing carbonic anhydrase to form CO 2 until all excess protons are removed. Bicarbonate concentration is also further regulated by renal compensation , the process by which the kidneys regulate the concentration of bicarbonate ions by ...

  5. Carbonate hardness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonate_hardness

    In a solution where only CO 2 affects the pH, carbonate hardness can be used to calculate the concentration of dissolved CO 2 in the solution with the formula CO 2 = 3 × KH × 10 (7-pH), where KH is degrees of carbonate hardness and CO 2 is given in ppm by weight. [citation needed]

  6. Bjerrum plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bjerrum_plot

    Example Bjerrum plot: Change in carbonate system of seawater from ocean acidification.. A Bjerrum plot (named after Niels Bjerrum), sometimes also known as a Sillén diagram (after Lars Gunnar Sillén), or a Hägg diagram (after Gunnar Hägg) [1] is a graph of the concentrations of the different species of a polyprotic acid in a solution, as a function of pH, [2] when the solution is at ...

  7. Ammonium bicarbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium_bicarbonate

    Ammonium bicarbonate is an inorganic compound with formula (NH 4)HCO 3. The compound has many names, reflecting its long history. Chemically speaking, it is the bicarbonate salt of the ammonium ion. It is a colourless solid that degrades readily to carbon dioxide, water and ammonia.

  8. Total inorganic carbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_inorganic_carbon

    The aquatic inorganic carbon system is composed of the various ionic, dissolved, solid, and/or gaseous forms of carbon dioxide in water. These species include dissolved carbon dioxide, carbonic acid, bicarbonate anion, carbonate anion, calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, and others.

  9. Bicarbonate indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicarbonate_indicator

    Two solutions are prepared separately: [2] [3] Solution A: 0.02 g of thymol blue, 0.01 g cresol red and 2 mL of ethanol; Solution B: 0.8 g of sodium bicarbonate, 7.48 g of potassium chloride and 90 mL of water
