  2. Calcium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium

    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.

    Chemical symbols are the abbreviations used in chemistry, mainly for chemical elements; but also for functional groups, chemical compounds, and other entities. Element symbols for chemical elements, also known as atomic symbols, normally consist of one or two letters from the Latin alphabet and are written with the first letter capitalised.

  8. List of mineral symbols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mineral_symbols

    Mineral symbols (text abbreviations) are used to abbreviate mineral groups, subgroups, and species, just as lettered symbols are used for the chemical elements.. The first set of commonly used mineral symbols was published in 1983 and covered the common rock-forming minerals using 192 two- or three-lettered symbols. [1]

    In other term, the C-S-H or the serpentine are less rich in Ca and Mg respectively. This is why the reaction leads to the elimination of the excess of portlandite (Ca(OH) 2 ) and brucite (Mg(OH) 2 ), respectively, out of the silicate system, giving rise to the crystallization of both hydroxides as separate phases.
