Lime (slaked lime or quick lime) is a strong alkali, and it neutralises the pH of the soil if it is acidic. It also contains valuable metallic elements needed for growing such as calcium, magnesium, iron, aluminum etc.
Yes, limestone is sometimes used in medicine as a source of calcium carbonate, which can be found in supplements for conditions like osteoporosis or heartburn. However, the use of limestone in medicine is limited due to potential impurities present in the rock that can be harmful if consumed.
To calculate the amount of limestone needed, first determine the moles of H2SO4 and HNO3 in the lake. Then, use the stoichiometry of the neutralization reaction between limestone (CaCO3) and the acids to calculate the moles of limestone required to neutralize the acids. Finally, convert the moles of limestone to kilograms using the molar mass of CaCO3.
To clean limestone tiles in a shower, you can use a mixture of mild dish soap and warm water. Avoid harsh chemicals that can damage the limestone surface. Rinse thoroughly with clean water after cleaning to prevent residue buildup.
Nature doesn't use anything to make cement. Cement is a human invention.
Farmers need to be careful about the pesticides they use to prevent harm to the environment, wildlife, and human health. Incorrect use or overuse of pesticides can result in pollution of water sources, harm to non-targeted species, and health risks for farmers, consumers, and nearby communities. Selective and judicious use of pesticides following proper guidelines is important to minimize these risks.
It adds calcium to the soil and helps raise the pH for more acidic soils.
Limestone is a nonrenewable resource everyone so use your limestone wisely ! (:
cement mostly and jamaica used limestone to help their food
I will need one more bag of limestone, please.
aqa gcse chemistry eh? Im looking for the same answer
Farmers didn't use them
Brazilian farmers use many of the same machines that farmers in the United States and Europe use. These farmers use machines like tractors, threshers, hay balers, and plows.
It was originally carved from a single block of limestone.
We can reduce the use of limestine by
Limestone is too soft for use as tools. The Egyptians built monument out of limestone using tools made of harder stone - Flint, granite, etc. (and some copper tools)
the limestone is very soft and will be dissolved in the acid rain
It depends on the type of outdoor architecture... But, yes, you can use limestone.
