What type of matter is chalk?

Chalk is a solid. But obviousley when it is like, well, rubbed i guess you could say it because a sort of gas type thing. the second sentence above is wrong.footnote. Chalk was the name given to the immense deposits of the calcium carbonate remains of tiny sea animals.The schoolroom chalk is usually made from a base of calcium sulphate (gypsum).


Why is calcium carbonate insoluable?

It is a very good question indeed! You see calcium chloride in which calcium is attached to two chlorine atoms is water soluble and vice versa sodium carbonate in which two sodium atoms are attached to one carbonate is soluble. In one to one proportion, calcium chloride molecule is insoluble. Now the answer for this question may go like this. In case of calcium chloride calcium gives one electron to each of chlorine atom. Now both chlorine atoms would have one negative charge. So both of them will repel each other and form the ions of calcium and two chlorine. Thus making them soluble. In case of sodium carbonate, two sodium atoms give electrons to carbonate. Now both sodium ions become positively charged and and would repel each other. So they would form ions along with carbonate. So sodium carbonate has become soluble. Now in case of calcium carbonate, calcium would like to give away 2 electrons but carbon becomes much electrically negative if it takes the electrons. So in this case no repelling force is there to help the metal, it surrenders and form sort of covalent bond and thus ions are not formed. So calcium carbonate is insoluble in water.

How exactly do calcium reactors work?

A calcium reactor maintains the level of calcium and alkalinity inside the reef aquarium. The reactor itself is nothing more than a chamber, it holds some sort of calcium-based substrate which is insoluble at 7.9-8.3 water pH. However, the substrate dissolves in lower pH, which frees the calcium and alkaline ions.
