Question

ELI5, How is the deep sea protected from becoming too acidic?

In: Earth Science

Answer 1

I don’t understand the question; why would the deep see be too acidic?

Answer 2

It will never be acidic. That’s why it’s salty.

Remember your chemistry, a strong base + strong acid gives you salt and water ONLY.
