Vinegar is acidic and acid is the enemy of calcium(that's why sodas are harmful to our bodys calcium levels). That's why the shell rubs off so easily

Is vinegar consumption bad for the human bone?

At the volumes you would be able to drink vinegar at, no. The acidity would never reach the bone - it would be absorbed and neutralized in the stomach and upper small intestines.


What would happen if you tried to swallow a lump of the element calcium without the compound calcium?

Your body would not be able to absorb the pure element calcium as-is. In its elemental form, calcium is not soluble in water and cannot be efficiently digested. It is essential to consume calcium in compounds like calcium carbonate, found in foods and supplements, for it to be effectively utilized by the body. Swallowing a lump of pure calcium could lead to digestive issues or blockages.


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.


What do you call the deposition of calcium salts into bone tissue?

The deposition of calcium salts into bone tissue is called mineralization or calcification. This process helps to strengthen and harden the bones, making them more rigid and able to support the body.

What is the purpose of the egg and vinegar experiment?

"The presence of the acid in vinegar, forced the egg shell to soften, because of the chemical reaction of the acid and calcium carbonate in the egg shell." I edited it a little for you.

Honey is water soluble so you should be able to remove it with plain water. And also use vinegar solution to remove stain.


How does calcium obey the octet rule when reating to form compounds?

Calcium is a group 2 element and typically loses 2 electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration with a full outer shell. By losing these 2 electrons, calcium is able to achieve an octet configuration in its outermost shell, similar to the noble gas configuration.


How does apple cider vinegar affect a chicken bone?

it makes the bone rubbery and can make it bendy


What happens when you put a chicken bone in vinegar?

When you put a chicken bone in vinegar, a chemical reaction occurs due to the acidic nature of vinegar. The acetic acid in the vinegar breaks down the calcium in the bone, which is a key component of bone structure. Over time, the bone will start to soften and eventually dissolve as the calcium is leached out into the vinegar solution. This process is known as demineralization and is often used in educational settings to demonstrate the effects of acids on calcium-based materials.


Why does boiled egg change in vinigar?

because of the chemical reaction between the vinegar and the egg shell. If you put a raw egg in vinegar it will dissolve and only the membrane will be left it is cool looking. It is like you have a ball that has liquid inside it XD


What chemicals remove silicone from wood?

Yes, vinegar can be able to clean your system for Xansx.


Does vinegar make a bone flexible?

Oh, dude, vinegar doesn't make bones flexible. It's actually the acid in vinegar that helps break down the calcium in bones, making them softer. So, if you ever need a bendy bone for a weird science experiment, vinegar might be your go-to. But like, don't go trying to bend your bones after a vinegar bath, that's just not how it works.
