No, CaCO3 is not a strong base. It is a weak base, known as calcium carbonate. When dissolved in water, it only partially ionizes to release hydroxide ions.
No, calcium carbonate is a base (an alkali.)
No, CH3O is not a strong base. It is a weak base.
Calcium carbonate is an alkali salt. Alkali salts are bases, and are formed from the neutralization reaction between a strong base and a weak acid. For example: Ca(OH)2 + H2CO3 --> CaCO3 + H2O strong base + weak acid ---> alkali salt + water
No, ETOH (ethanol) is not a strong base. It is a weak base.
Potassium hydroxide (KOH) is a strong base. It dissociates completely into ions in water, making it a strong electrolyte and a good conductor of electricity.

# The shells aren't made of calcium, they're made of calcium carbonate. # Calcium carbonate is the salt of a strong base and a weak acid, and is therefore weakly alkaline. I understand that you can make CaCO3 by the following process: HCO3 + CaOH => CaCO3 +H2O But once you have made CaCO3 ( a slightly alkaline salt) from the acid and base, what is happening to the CaCO3 in the H2O that is making the water more basic? In other words, how can CaCO3 have anything to do with the lone OH- ions present in the water?
CaCO3 (calcium carbonate) is a mild base, and as such reacts to neutralise acids. Vinegar is a dilute solution of acetic acid (AcH). CaCO3 + 2AcH --> H2O + CO2 + CaAc
It is a strong base.

No, ETOH (ethanol) is not a strong base. It is a weak base.
A salt is formed when a strong acid reacts with a strong base.
Its a strong base
Potassium hydroxide (KOH) is a strong base. It dissociates completely into ions in water, making it a strong electrolyte and a good conductor of electricity.
Ethanol is not considered a strong base. It is a weak base.
