My book says that calcium is paramagnetic but I cannot understand why since it doesn't have any unpaired electrons as paramagnetic materials need to have. I have the same question for magnesium too.
No, gypsum is not magnetic and does not attract to a magnet. Gypsum is a non-metallic mineral composed of calcium sulfate dihydrate and does not possess magnetic properties.
No, calcium is not magnetic. It does not have magnetic properties in its natural state.
No, calcium sulfate and calcium sulphate are the same chemical compound, commonly known as gypsum. Calcium sulfate dihydrate specifically refers to the hydrated form of calcium sulfate, where each molecule contains two molecules of water (CaSO4 ∙ 2H2O).
Calcium sulfate has ionic bonds.
Calcium sulfate has a very low solubility in water.
The product of iron sulfate reacting with calcium carbonate is iron carbonate and calcium sulfate. The iron from the iron sulfate displaces the calcium in the calcium carbonate to form iron carbonate, while the sulfate from the iron sulfate combines with the calcium to form calcium sulfate.
No, gypsum is not magnetic and does not attract to a magnet. Gypsum is a non-metallic mineral composed of calcium sulfate dihydrate and does not possess magnetic properties.
No, calcium sulfate is not a base. It is a salt composed of calcium ions and sulfate ions.
No, because it has 2 substances in it - calcium and sulfate - Calcium is an element, but sulfate is a polyatomic ion. Sulfate consists of sulfur and oxygen. Therefore, calcium sulfate is a compound, that is, made of three elements.
Calcium sulfate is an inorganic compound.
No, calcium is not magnetic. It does not have magnetic properties in its natural state.
Calcium sulfate is composed of calcium, which is a metal element, and sulfate, which is a polyatomic anion composed of sulfur and oxygen atoms. The chemical formula for calcium sulfate is CaSO4.
Calcium Sulfate has one calcium, because calcium is positively charged (2+) and sulfate is negatively charged (2-) and combines together 1 to 1 to form neutral calcium sulfate, or: Ca2+ + SO42- → CaSO4
The chemical formula for Calcium Sulfate is CaSO4
No, calcium sulfate and calcium sulphate are the same chemical compound, commonly known as gypsum. Calcium sulfate dihydrate specifically refers to the hydrated form of calcium sulfate, where each molecule contains two molecules of water (CaSO4 ∙ 2H2O).
When barium sulfate is mixed with calcium chloride, a double displacement reaction occurs where barium chloride and calcium sulfate are formed. Barium chloride is soluble in water, while calcium sulfate is not, so a solid precipitate of calcium sulfate will form.
Calcium + Copper sulfate ----> Calcium sulfate + Copper It is a single displacement reactions. The products are Calcium Sulfate (white, insoluble) and fillings of copper(reddish-brown).
