One idea to mitigate the effects of burning fossil fuels on atmospheric CO2 concentrations is to pipe liquid CO2 into the ocean at depths of 2500 feet or greater. At the high pressures at such depths, CO2 is heavier than water

What potential effects might result from implementing such a scheme? A) increased carbonate concentrations in the deep waters
B) increased growth of corals from a change in the carbonate–bicarbonate equilibrium
C) no effect because carbon dioxide is not soluble in water
D) increased acidity and decreased carbonate concentrations in the deep waters
