  2. Calcium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium

    Bulk calcium is less reactive: it quickly forms a hydration coating in moist air, but below 30% relative humidity it may be stored indefinitely at room temperature. [ 15 ] Besides the simple oxide CaO, calcium peroxide , CaO 2 , can be made by direct oxidation of calcium metal under a high pressure of oxygen, and there is some evidence for a ...

  3. Calcium hydroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_hydroxide

    Calcium hydroxide is sparsely soluble at room temperature in water (1.5 g/L at 25 °C [23]). "Pure" (i.e. less than or fully saturated) limewater is clear and colorless, with a slight earthy smell and an astringent/bitter taste. It is basic in nature with a pH of 12.4. Limewater is named after limestone, not the lime fruit.

  4. Calcium chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_chloride

    It is a white crystalline solid at room temperature, and it is highly soluble in water. It can be created by neutralising hydrochloric acid with calcium hydroxide. Calcium chloride is commonly encountered as a hydrated solid with generic formula CaCl 2 ·nH 2 O, where n = 0, 1, 2, 4, and 6. These compounds are mainly used for de-icing and dust ...

  5. Calcium oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_oxide

    Calcium oxide. E529 (acidity regulators, ...) Except where otherwise noted, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C [77 °F], 100 kPa). Calcium oxide (formula: Ca O), commonly known as quicklime or burnt lime, is a widely used chemical compound. It is a white, caustic, alkaline, crystalline solid at room temperature.

  6. Solubility chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility_chart

    The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.

  7. Standard enthalpy of formation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_enthalpy_of_formation

    In chemistry and thermodynamics, the standard enthalpy of formation or standard heat of formation of a compound is the change of enthalpy during the formation of 1 mole of the substance from its constituent elements in their reference state, with all substances in their standard states. The standard pressure value p⦵ = 105 Pa (= 100 kPa = 1 ...

  8. Calcium carbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_carbonate

    At each temperature there is a partial pressure of carbon dioxide that is in equilibrium with calcium carbonate. At room temperature the equilibrium overwhelmingly favors calcium carbonate, because the equilibrium CO 2 pressure is only a tiny fraction of the partial CO 2 pressure in air, which is about 0.035 kPa.

  9. Calcium nitrite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_nitrite

    Calcium nitrite is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Ca(NO 2) 2. ... nitrogen is in a +3 oxidation state. ... At room temperature and pressure, the ...
