Why do you have to heat marble chips directly?
you don't you can heat them indirectly also, it will just take longer.
What is the scientific name for marble chips?
Calcium Carbonate
Why you are adding marble chips during heating?
Marble chips are added during heating so that the solution or substance can boil evenly. Evenly boiling the solution will cause it not to have heating spots, which can cause an eruption of bubbles. Heating spots are caused when the heat being applied is only getting to the liquid at the bottom of the flask, causing the liquid down there to evaporate more quickly than the upper liquid. The liquid evaporating causes bubbles to shoot through the solution vigorously, disrupting the system. To avoid these heating spots, we add marble chips or boiling chips to induce a nice, even boil.
What happens to the particles when limestone forms marble?
The intense heat makes the calcium and carbonate particles arrange themselves in a new pattern of bigger crystals which interlock tightly. A new rock- Marble is formed.
What are facts about the marble rock?
Marble rock starts out as limestone. It undergoes heat and pressure. That turns it to marble.
Why do you have to heat marble chips directly?

What happens when you place marble chips in vinegar?
Marble is primarily made of calcium carbonate. Vinegar has acid in it. When the weak acid contacts the calcium carbonate, it gives off bubbles of carbon dioxide gas, and eventually will erode the surface of the marble chips.
What is the pH of marble chips?
pH is measured only in solutions or liquids. Marble chips has not a pH.
What happens when limestone is put under heat and pressure?
It could recrystallize and form marble, under specific conditions of heat and pressure.
What is the pH of marble?
pH is measured only in solutions or liquids. Marble chips has not a pH.
Can you use white marble chips instead of lava rock in your gas fireplace but not in direct heat?
you could but it has not been tested or approved for that type of use.
What happens to lost energy of a marble?
Energy can neither be created or destroyed. It is converted to heat & sound when it lands.
The rate of reaction between hcl and marble chips?
it depends on amounts of marble and concentration of acid
What is the scientific name for marble chips?
Calcium Carbonate
Do marble chips absorb water?
No the water would drain around the chips. They would not absorb water.
What is the scientific name for small marble chips?
calcium carbonate :)
What will happen if acid reacts with marble?
Marble chips are calcium carbonate. If the hydrochloric acid is strong(concentrated), it acts upon the marble and corrodes it liberating
