What happens when you touch calcium metal?

Answer 1

Sensory nerves in your finger trigger minute electrical impulses which travel to your brain. Your brain then interprets those impulses as one thing or another and you say, "Hmm, that's what calcium metal feels like."

Answer 2

When you touch calcium metal, a white coating of calcium oxide forms on the surface due to its reaction with oxygen in the air. This oxide layer can cause irritation to the skin and may result in burns if prolonged contact occurs. It is advised to handle calcium metal with gloves to prevent skin contact.

Answer 3

Calcium Carbonate is neither hard nor relatively conductive to heat or electricity.
