Answer:
CaCO3 exoskeleton dissolves in acidic water
Explanation:
The increasing CO2 level makes the ocean water acidic and hence reduces the pH. In such acidic environment, marine organism that produce calcium carbonate shells or skeletons are negatively affected. Coral reefs and coralline algae abilities to produce skeleton also reduces.
Calcium carbonate dissolves in acid. Thus, the more acidic the ocean water is the faster and easier it is to dissolve the exoskeleton and shell of marine organisms made up of calcium carbonate
6.022 x 10^23, this is avogados number, a mole has 6.022 x 10^23 of anything, but in this instance, it is 6.022 x10^23 atoms of carbon.
I would say 44 bc divide and add in the slot will give u the answer
