used for its properties as a base. In agriculture‚ chalk is used for raising pH in soils with high acidity. The most common forms are CaCO3 (calcium carbonate) and CaO (calcium oxide). Small doses of chalk can also be used as an antacid. Additionally‚ the small particles of chalk make it a substance ideal for cleaning and polishing. For example‚ toothpaste commonly contains small amounts of chalk‚ which serves as a mild abrasive. Polishing chalk is chalk prepared with a carefully controlled grain

Investigating Factors That Affect Rates Of Reaction Aim: How does the mass of calcium carbonate affect its rate of reaction with hydrochloric acid? Hypothesis: I hypothesize that when the mass of the calcium carbonate increases‚ the rate of reaction of the calcium carbonate and hydrochloric will also increase. The collision theory states that the more successful collisions there are within the reaction‚ the faster the rate of reaction. When the mass increases‚ so does the number of particles

dissolved minerals. (2) Some of the minerals come from chalk‚ limestone or marble‚ which the water may have flowed over or through. (4) Hard water contains calcium or magnesium ions. Limestone‚ marble or chalks are insoluble in pure water however they will dissolve slowly in acidic rain. If your water has emerged through limestone or chalk (calcium carbonate) it will be hard. (1) Soft water is gratification water in which the only cation (positively charged ion) is sodium. The minerals in water give it an

Introduction: The back titration is a method used in determining the amount of excess of the reagent. The calcium carbonate is a substance which gives the eggshell stiffness. Research question: What is the amount of calcium carbonate in the eggshell measured by back titration? Table 1. Variables. Type of variable | Variable | Unit | Dependent | Amount of calcium carbonate in eggshell | % by mass | Independent | Volume of titrated excess of hydrochloric aced

Every time more heat is added to the element‚ CaCO3‚ thermal decomposition will take place faster because the heat is a catalyst which speeds up the reaction. Variables Dependent Variables → Mass of Calcium Carbonate Independent Variables → Temperature Controlled Variables → Calcium Carbonate What? How? Why? IV Temperature Use the same temperature for each trial. To make the experiment more accurate. DV Change in mass of CaCO3 upon heating Using a mass balance accurate to 2

DISSCUSION: Carbonates are decomposed by heat into the corresponding oxides and carbon dioxide. The temperature of decomposition depends upon the activity of the metal; that is to say‚ the more active the metal‚ the more stable is the carbonate. Thus‚ the carbonates of sodium and potassium are stable at the highest temperature of a Bunsen burner flame‚ whereas the carbonates of silver and copper are easily decomposed. In this experiment copper (ii) carbonate will be decomposed at a high temperature

Rates of Reaction: Hydrochloric Acid + Calcium Carbonate Background Information: Hydrochloric acid is a clear‚ colourless‚ highly-pungent solution of hydrogen chloride (HCl) in water. It is a highly corrosive‚ strong mineral acid with many industrial uses. Hydrochloric acid is found naturally in gastric acid. Calcium carbonate is a chemical compound with the formula CaCO3. It is a common substance found in rocks in all parts of the world‚ and is the main
