What is calcium or compounds of calcium used for?
Calcium is an element, located in group two of the Periodic Table.
How do you get the element calcium?
In 1808, Humphry Davy invented a system for melting compounds of elements that were difficult to separate by usual methods. He passed an electric current through the compound, causing the compounds to break into parts. The element that he used this method on was calcium. By melting calcium carbonate (CaCO3)-which is a common compound of calcium-and passing an electric current, he was able to create a pure form of calcium.
Is calcium a noble gas?
Argon (atomic number 18) is the noble gas that is nearest to calcium (atomic number 20)
Is CaS a covalent compound?
Ca (calcium) is an element, not a compound. and it can only form ionic compounds.
When was calcium discover?
It was discovered by Sir Humphrey Davy in 1808. Calcium was known and used in various compounds from as early as Roman times, but the element itself was not actually isolated until 1808.
What compounds are found in calcium?
There are no compounds found in calcium. Calcium is an element.
What are the elements in calcium?
Calcium is an element. There are things such as elements and compounds. Calcium is a single element. Calcium containing compounds exist also but compounds contain more than one element.
Which element provides strength to bones?
Bones contain the element Calcium (Ca). It is not this element but compounds made out of this element that gives bones their strength. These compounds are calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate.
Which compounds are formed by calcium?
Calcium is a very active element which forms innumerable compounds. The most familiar one is calcium carbonate, also known as limestone.
What is calcium or compounds of calcium used for?

Do organic molecules have to contain the element calcium?
No, they don't. Organic compounds have to contain the element carbon.
Why is the element at the bottom in a electric kettle?
It is not an element... for hard water usually a build up calcium compounds.
What is the isotopes number element of calcium chloride?
Isotopes of elements exist. There are no isotopes for compounds and calcium chloride is a compound.
What element is an alkaline earth metal that combines more readily with inorganic compounds than with organic compounds?
Calcium
Is calcium the same as limescale?
Calcium (Ca) is a chemical element. Limescale is a mixture of compounds, the most important being the calcium carbonate (CaCO3).
What is the oxidation number for calcium and nitrate?
Calcium is a element. Nitrate is a ion. Calcium shows +2.
What chemicals is calcium made of?
Calcium is an element. Therefore it makes chemicals up, not the other way aound. Common Ca compounds are CaCO3, calcium carbonate, and CaO Calcium oxide
