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.

Crystal structure of calcite. 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.
CaCO 3 + 2 HCl → CaCl 2 + CO 2 + H 2 O. Thus, scale can be removed with acid. In solution the equilibrium between carbonate, bicarbonate, carbon dioxide and carbonic acid is sensitive to pH, temperature, and pressure. Although di- and trivalent carbonates have low solubility, bicarbonate salts are far more soluble.
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 ...
In part because of its high polarity, HCl is very soluble in water (and in other polar solvents). Upon contact, H 2 O and HCl combine to form hydronium cations [H 3 O] + and chloride anions Cl − through a reversible chemical reaction: HCl + H 2 O → [H 3 O] + + Cl −. The resulting solution is called hydrochloric acid and is a strong acid.
A new study found that Americans 40 and older could live over five years longer if they exercised as much as the top 25% of the population. Here's what to know.
Calcite exhibits an unusual characteristic called retrograde solubility: it is less soluble in water as the temperature increases. Calcite is also more soluble at higher pressures. [19] Pure calcite has the composition CaCO 3. However, the calcite in limestone often contains a few percent of magnesium. Calcite in limestone is divided into low ...
