Does marble absorb water?
Yes. Raw marble (untreated marble) will absorb water. However this doesn't mean it will absorb so much water it will have a significantly larger mass. Treated marble that has a thin silicon layer will not absorb water.
Is marble waterproof?
yes it is because it does not absorb water. <><><><> Above is not quite correct. Marble is water resistant. Different grades of marble have different rates of water absorption. One major US building was skinned with marble, and had to be redone- the marble selected was the wrong grade, absorbed more water than was covered in the design, and marble panels were bowing away from the framework. It does not absorb water like wood, but it DOES absorb some water.
How do you separate salt and marble chips?
First you mix both chalk and salt in water. From the solution that you get, you can filter the chalk out because it is non soluble in water. As for the salt, all there is to do is to just evaporate the water out.
What is the word equation for the reaction of marble chips and hydrochloric acid?
The word equation for the reaction of marble chips (calcium carbonate) with hydrochloric acid is: calcium carbonate + hydrochloric acid → calcium chloride + water + carbon dioxide.
What is the pH of marble chips?
pH is measured only in solutions or liquids. Marble chips has not a pH.
What does marble chips do for filtration?
Marble chips are often used in filtration systems to help remove impurities from water. They act as a physical filter, providing a substrate for beneficial bacteria to colonize, which aids in the biological breakdown of contaminants. Additionally, marble chips can help stabilize pH levels, as they slowly dissolve in water, releasing calcium carbonate, which can neutralize acidity. This dual action enhances the overall effectiveness of the filtration process.
What is the scientific name for marble chips?
The scientific name for marble chips is calcium carbonate, which is a chemical compound with the formula CaCO3.
What characterizes a strong acid or base?
Complete ionization in water. Very fast reaction with marble chips/powder.
What is the formula of the bubbles produce from the reaction of an acid with marble chip?
When an acid reacts with marble chips (calcium carbonate), bubbles of carbon dioxide gas are produced. The chemical reaction formula is: acid + calcium carbonate (marble chips) -> carbon dioxide gas + water + calcium salt
What is the pH of marble?
pH is measured only in solutions or liquids. Marble chips has not a pH.
Hydrocholoric acid marble chips?
Hydrochloric acid, HCl, and marble chips, CaCO3 is a chemical reaction that produces calcium chloride, CaCl2, carbon dioxide, CO2, and water, H2O.CaCO3(s) + 2 HCl(aq) --> CaCl2(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)
Does marble let water go through it?
Marble is a natural stone that is porous, meaning it can absorb water. However, it is not as porous as some other natural stones like limestone or travertine. If sealed properly, marble can be resistant to water absorption, but it is still important to wipe up spills promptly to prevent staining.
