  2. Lindlar catalyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lindlar_catalyst

    Lindlar catalyst is commercially available but can also be created by reducing palladium chloride in a slurry of calcium carbonate (CaCO 3) and adding lead acetate. [1] [2] A variety of other "catalyst poisons" have been used, including lead oxide and quinoline. [3] The palladium content of the supported catalyst is usually 5% by weight.

  3. Ethanol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethanol

    Ethanol (also called ethyl alcohol, grain alcohol, drinking alcohol, or simply alcohol) is an organic compound with the chemical formula CH 3 CH 2 OH.It is an alcohol, with its formula also written as C 2 H 5 OH, C 2 H 6 O or EtOH, where Et stands for ethyl.

  4. Calcium bicarbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_bicarbonate

    As the groundwater enters the cave, the excess carbon dioxide is released from the solution of the bicarbonate, causing the much less soluble calcium carbonate to be deposited. In the reverse process, dissolved carbon dioxide (CO 2) in rainwater (H 2 O) reacts with limestone calcium carbonate (CaCO 3) to form soluble calcium bicarbonate (Ca(HCO ...

  5. Calcium carbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_carbonate

    Calcium carbonate is a chemical compound with the chemical formula Ca CO 3. It is a common substance found in rocks as the minerals calcite and aragonite , most notably in chalk and limestone , eggshells , gastropod shells , shellfish skeletons and pearls .

  6. Azeotrope tables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azeotrope_tables

    This page contains tables of azeotrope data for various binary and ternary mixtures of solvents. The data include the composition of a mixture by weight (in binary azeotropes, when only one fraction is given, it is the fraction of the second component), the boiling point (b.p.) of a component, the boiling point of a mixture, and the specific gravity of the mixture.

  7. Alkali–carbonate reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkali–carbonate_reaction

    The alkali–carbonate reaction is an alteration process first suspected in the 1950s in Canada for the degradation of concrete containing dolomite aggregates. [1] [2]Alkali from the cement might react with the dolomite crystals present in the aggregate inducing the production of brucite, (MgOH) 2, and calcite (CaCO 3).

  8. Whitewash - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitewash

    Whitewash cures through a reaction with carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to form calcium carbonate in the form of calcite, a type of reaction generally known as carbonation or by the more specific term, carbonatation. It is usually applied to exteriors, or interiors of rural dairies because of its mildly antibacterial properties. Whitewash can ...

  9. Calcium acetate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_acetate

    Calcium acetate can be prepared by soaking calcium carbonate (found in eggshells, or in common carbonate rocks such as limestone or marble) or hydrated lime in vinegar: . CaCO 3 (s) + 2CH 3 COOH(aq) → Ca(CH 3 COO) 2 (aq) + H 2 O(l) + CO 2 (g)
