  2. Calcium bromide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_bromide

    Calcium bromide is the name for compounds with the chemical formula Ca Br 2 (H 2 O) x. Individual compounds include the anhydrous material (x = 0), the hexahydrate (x = 6), and the rare dihydrate (x = 2). All are white powders that dissolve in water, and from these solutions crystallizes the hexahydrate.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_bromate

    Calcium bromate, Ca(BrO 3) 2, is a calcium salt of bromic acid. It is most commonly encountered as the monohydrate, Ca(BrO 3) 2 •H 2 O. [citation needed] It can be prepared by reacting calcium hydroxide with sodium bromate or calcium sulfate with barium bromate. Above 180 °C, calcium bromate decomposes to form calcium bromide and oxygen.

    Amphoteric is derived from the Greek word amphoteroi (ἀμφότεροι) meaning "both".Related words in acid-base chemistry are amphichromatic and amphichroic, both describing substances such as acid-base indicators which give one colour on reaction with an acid and another colour on reaction with a base.

  9. Base-richness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base-richness

    In ecology, base-richness is the level of chemical bases in water or soil, such as calcium or magnesium ions. Many organisms prefer base-rich environments. [1] Chemical bases are alkalis, hence base-rich environments are either neutral or alkaline. Because acid-rich environments have few bases, they are dominated by environmental acids (usually ...
