A bathtub faucet with built-up calcification from hard water in Southern Arizona. Hard water is water that has a high mineral content (in contrast with "soft water"). Hard water is formed when water percolates through deposits of limestone, chalk or gypsum, [1] which are largely made up of calcium and magnesium carbonates, bicarbonates and sulfates.
Ionized calcium (Ca) 1.03, [20] 1.10 [5] 1.23, [20] 1.30 [5] mmol/L: See hypocalcaemia or hypercalcaemia: 4.1, [21] 4.4 [21] 4.9, [21] 5.2 [21] mg/dL Total calcium ...
Total calcium of less than 8.0 mg/dL is hypocalcaemia, with levels below 1.59 mmol/L (6 mg/dL) generally fatal. Total calcium of more than 10.6 mg/dL is hypercalcaemia , with levels over 3.753 mmol/L (15.12 mg/dL) generally fatal.

Milli (symbol m) is a unit prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of one thousandth (10 −3). [1] Proposed in 1793, [2] and adopted in 1795, the prefix comes from the Latin mille, meaning one thousand (the Latin plural is milia).
Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), also called EDTA acid, is an aminopolycarboxylic acid with the formula [CH 2 N(CH 2 CO 2 H) 2] 2.This white, slightly water-soluble solid is widely used to bind to iron (Fe 2+ /Fe 3+) and calcium ions (Ca 2+), forming water-soluble complexes even at neutral pH.
118 chemical elements have been identified and named officially by IUPAC.A chemical element, often simply called an element, is a type of atom which has a specific number of protons in its atomic nucleus (i.e., a specific atomic number, or Z).
