The fertilizer grade (15.5-0-0 + 19% Ca) is popular in the greenhouse and hydroponics trades; it contains ammonium nitrate and water, as the "double salt" 5Ca(NO 3) 2 ·NH 4 NO 3 ·10H 2 O. This is called calcium ammonium nitrate and often the name calcium nitrate prill is used as it always comes in a prilled (granular) form.
Calcium nitrite is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Ca(NO 2) 2. In this compound, as in all nitrites, nitrogen is in a +3 oxidation state. It has many applications such as antifreeze, rust inhibitor of steel and wash heavy oil. [1]
Carbon (from Latin carbo ' coal ') is a chemical element; it has symbol C and atomic number 6. It is nonmetallic and tetravalent—meaning that its atoms are able to form up to four covalent bonds due to its valence shell exhibiting 4 electrons. It belongs to group 14 of the periodic table. [13] Carbon makes up about 0.025 percent of Earth's ...
3 Ca + N 2 → Ca 3 N 2. It reacts with water or even the moisture in air to give ammonia and calcium hydroxide: [4] Ca 3 N 2 + 6 H 2 O → 3 Ca(OH) 2 + 2 NH 3. Like sodium oxide, calcium nitride absorbs hydrogen above 350 °C: Ca 3 N 2 + 2 H 2 → 2 CaNH + CaH 2
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.
In organic chemistry, the carbon number of a compound is the number of carbon atoms in each molecule. [1] The properties of hydrocarbons can be correlated with the carbon number, although the carbon number alone does not give an indication of the saturation of the organic compound. When describing a particular molecule, the "carbon number" is ...
This list is ordered by the number of carbon atoms in a carboxylic acid. C1. IUPAC name: Common name: Structural formula Notes formic acid: methanoic acid: HCO 2 H
Natural calcium is a mixture of five stable isotopes (40 Ca, 42 Ca, 43 Ca, 44 Ca, and 46 Ca) and one isotope with a half-life so long that it is for all practical purposes stable (48 Ca, with a half-life of about 4.3 × 10 19 years). Calcium is the first (lightest) element to have six naturally occurring isotopes.
