No. Shellfish are mostly devoid of calcium. The primary sources of calcium are dairy products.

When was Even the Sand Is Made of Seashells created?
Even the Sand Is Made of Seashells was created in 2006.
Why do seashell fizz in acids?
Because seashells are made of Calcium Carbonate, which when reacted with acid produces carbon dioxide and water.
Is calcium carbonate milk?
Calcium Carbonate - CaCO3 This is found in rocks such as limestone and is the main component of seashells Calcium Chloride - CaCl2 This is a salt which is found naturally in very small quantities Calcium Hydroxide - Ca(OH)2 My understanding is that this does not occur naturally, it is very useful in many industries Calcium Oxide - CaO Created during the decomposition of limestone To name a few.
Are seashells producers consumers or decomposers?
Producer
Are seashells magnetic?
no because they are not magnetic and their not made of magnet
How do you desolve calcium on seashells?
You put the seashells in a cup of vinegar
How do you spell calcium?
That is the correct spelling of the element "calcium" (notably in bones and seashells).
How do you dissolve Calcium deposits on seashells?
you dont hahahahahahahahahaha
Are seashells made out of carbon?
Seashells are not made out of only carbon. They are a mixture of compounds. Calcium carbonate is a main compound in them.
What minerals are seashells made of?
they are made mainly from calcium and from a few other minerals.
Are teeth and seashells similar in composite?
No they are not exactly the same Both contain calcium and taces of different element but are not totally having the same composition
What are most seashells made of?
Mostly calcium carbonate (limestone -chalk).
What is the melting point of seashells?
The seashell is fomed from calcium carbonate; CaCO3 is thermally decomposed by heating.
Why are sea shells hard?
Seashells are hard because they are mainly made of calcium, a hard mineral, which is what bones are made of.
Are sea shells ionic?
yes, seashells are ionic because all the components of seashells like calcium carbonate, calcite and conchiolin are ionic compounds. by kingsley Ifang (BSc Ed. chemistry) university of uyo, Nigeria.
Can you give me a sentence for accretion?
Accretion means gradually growing by layers. Seashells grow by accretion as the animals add new layers of calcium.
Is calcite a nonrenewable resource?
No, the calcium the earth has is all it will have. It is not renewable. Most of the calcium available is in fossil form (e.g. ancient coral reefs, deposits of seashells, organic ooze) that will take millions of years to be replaced (like coal, petroleum, and natural gas). However it is easy to use calcium from bones and seashells harvested today.
