Answer:

Hello,

Ocean acidification is the ongoing decrease in the pH of the Earth's oceans, caused by the uptake of carbon dioxide (CO. 2) from the atmosphere. Seawater is slightly basic (meaning pH > 7), and ocean acidification involves a shift towards pH-neutral conditions rather than a transition to acidic conditions (pH < 7).

Beta Ziti is the hotter star.

Infrared is the type of radiation which creates warmth. Atoms and molecules move more and more, and produce infrared radiation, as temperature increases. An object, like a hot clothing iron, which is not hot enough to produce light to the naked eye, emits energy in the infrared.

At the other end of the spectrum is ultraviolet radiation, which is more energetic. It has nothing to do with heat.
