Now that I have a new batch of Red Cabbage indicator. I would like to investigate some of the chemistry of a recently collected sample of seawater, specifically the following:-
- The pH of seawater.
- If adding eggshells changes the pH.
Background to this
Eggshell, contains Calcium Carbonate $\ce{CaCO3}$ when added to vinegar $\ce{CH3COOH}$ the pH value increases.
Related information
Adding eggshell to vinegar increases the pH of the vinegar. I will write up my experiment / results and share this. What I want to know is can eggshell do the same to seawater.
This may be a possible solution to ocean acidification.

Write-up
You can find my write up for this experiment in PDF here. You may want to right click and download, otherwise it will probably just open in a browser. Provided as-is, but it should cover what I did, my results and conclusion.
