  2. Calcium sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_sulfate

    The structure is related to that of zirconium orthosilicate (zircon): Ca 2+ is 8-coordinate, SO 2− 4 is tetrahedral, O is 3-coordinate. CaSO 4 ·2H 2 O (gypsum and selenite (mineral)): dihydrate. [7] CaSO 4 · ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ H 2 O : hemihydrate, also known as plaster of Paris. Specific hemihydrates are sometimes distinguished: α-hemihydrate ...

  3. IUPAC nomenclature of inorganic chemistry 2005 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IUPAC_nomenclature_of...

    The recommended method would be to name it sodium sulfate—water(1/10). Similarly other examples of lattice compounds are: CaCl 2 ·8NH 3, calcium chloride— ammonia (1/8) 2Na 2 CO 3 ·3H 2 O 2, sodium carbonate—hydrogen peroxide (2/3) AlCl 3 ·4EtOH, aluminium chloride—ethanol (1/4)

  4. Counterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counterion

    The resin has a higher affinity for highly charged countercations, for example by Ca 2+ (calcium) in the case of water softening. Correspondingly, anion-exchange resins are typically provided in the form of chloride Cl −, which is a highly mobile counteranion. Counterions are used in phase-transfer catalysis.

  5. Solubility chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility_chart

    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.

  6. Reducing agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reducing_agent

    Ferrous compounds that contain the Fe 2+ ion, such as iron(II) sulfate; Stannous compounds that contain the Sn 2+ ion, such as tin(II) chloride; Sulfur dioxide (sometimes also used as an oxidizing agent), Sulfite compounds; Dithionates, e.g. Na 2 S 2 O 6; Thiosulfates, e.g. Na 2 S 2 O 3 (mainly in analytical chemistry) [11]

  7. Gypsum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gypsum

    Gypsum is moderately water-soluble (~2.0–2.5 g/L at 25 °C) [13] and, in contrast to most other salts, it exhibits retrograde solubility, becoming less soluble at higher temperatures. When gypsum is heated in air it loses water and converts first to calcium sulfate hemihydrate ( bassanite , often simply called "plaster") and, if heated ...

  8. Hard water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_water

    1 mmol/L is equivalent to 100.09 mg/L CaCO 3 or 40.08 mg/L Ca 2+. A degree of General Hardness ( dGH or 'German degree' (°dH, deutsche Härte )) is defined as 10 mg/L CaO or 17.848 ppm. A Clark degree (°Clark) or English degree (°e or e) is defined as one grain (64.8 mg) of CaCO 3 per Imperial gallon (4.55 litres) of water, equivalent to 14. ...

  9. Anhydrite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anhydrite

    The name anhydrite was given by A. G. Werner in 1804, because of the absence of water of crystallization, as contrasted with the presence of water in gypsum. Some obsolete names for the species are muriacite and karstenite; the former, an earlier name, being given under the impression that the substance was a chloride (muriate).
