The main ingredient in eggshells is calcium carbonate (the same brittle white stuff that chalk, limestone, cave stalactites, sea shells, coral, and pearls are made of). The shell itself is about 95% CaCO3 (which is also the main ingredient in sea shells). The remaining 5% includes calcium phosphate and magnesium carbonate and soluble and insoluble proteins.

What are the characteristics of calcium's family?
The element calcium (Ca) is found in Group 2 of the peroidic table, and that makes it an alkaline earth metal. It is fairly reactive, and is not found free in nature. In compounds, it forms the +2 ion as it readily loans out its two valence electrons. Calcium is a silver metal, but if exposed to air, it will rapidly corrode at it reacts with nitrogen and oxygen. In doing so, it will form a nitride and oxide coating. This metal is extremely common in nature (though in its ionic form in compounds), and it is an essential element for life. Aside from its reactivity as cited, it will burn brightly, though it is difficult to set ablaze. In burning, it will display a bright brick-red flame and cannot be extinguished with water.

Why is barium more reactive with water than calcium?
Barium metal reacts with water to produce barium hydroxide and hydrogen gas, according to the following equation: Ba(s) + 2 H2O(l) -> Ba2+(aq) + 2 OH-(aq) + H2(g) Some metals react with dilute acids, such as sulfuric acid, produsing a salt solution and hydrogen gas. However, if barium metal is added to water a layer of insolube barium sulfate forms at the surface, according to the equation: Ba2+(aq) + SO42-(aq) -> BaSO4(s) As an aside, calcium behaves in a similar manner. If you don;t have ready access to calcium metal, then this can be observed by placing an egg into quite dilute solutions of hydrochloric and sulfuric acids. In hydrochloric acid, the egg shell (mostly calcium carbonate) is removed. However, in sulfuric acid the reactions does not proceed due to the formation of insoluble calcium sulfate at the surface of the egg shell.
What is milk of lime?
the milk of lime is... wait for this... the lime of milk. ================================================================== Kidding aside from the first answer, milk of lime is another common name for limewater, a saturated solution of calcium hydroxide. It got its name from the process of its preparation, wherein excess calcium hydroxide is stirred in pure water and filtering off the excess insoluble Ca(OH)2. When excess calcium hydroxide is added to limewater, a suspension of calcium hydroxide particles remains, giving it a milky aspect, in which case it has the common name of milk of lime.
