00:00 - Intro

02:01 - Recap of Henry's Law of differential pressures. Any gas dissolved in a liquid will equalize with that same gas above the liquid.

04:36 - If you exceed the pH ceiling, the atmosphere will literally push CO2 back into the water.

04:57 - Where does CO2 come from when adding acid? It converts bicarbonate into carbonic acid (dissolved CO2).

07:50 - We don't want bicarbonate ions to convert into carbonate ions (at 8.3 pH or higher) because carbonates are attracted to calcium ions, creating calcium carbonate.

12:12 - How can we stop the rise of pH? How can we suppress pH?
