Increased atmospheric CO2 concentrations might have what effect on seawater?

#I Life Science/ Life Sciences Group – I-V
  1. Seawater will become more alkaline, and carbonate concentrations will decrease.

  2. There will be no change in the pH of seawater, because carbonate will turn to bicarbonate.

  3. Seawater will become more acidic, and carbonate concentrations will decrease.

  4. Seawater will become more acidic, and carbonate concentrations will increase.
