The poisonous effect of sulphuric acid is primarily due to its acidity. While a pH of 4.0 has caused gill irritation, pH 3.5 has caused death in sunfish, bass and carp. As a consequence of this pH effect, a quantity of acid that would be lethal in soft water could be rendered harmless in hard or highly buffered water. 2, record 3, English, - buffered%20water

Le pH représente la concentration d’ions hydrogène(H+) et détermine si l'eau est basique ou acide. En ce qui a trait aux eaux douces du Saint-Laurent, la masse d’eau des Grands Lacs a une alcalinité moyenne de 89, 6 mg/L de CaCO3 et un pH moyen de 8, 2, ce qui indique une eau tamponnée, légèrement basique [...] 2, record 3, French, - eau%20tamponn%C3%A9e
