People can stain their teeth in more ways than one. A big silent killer is drinking anything that is highly acidic. According to Professor Laurence Walsh, some highly acidic drinks, like orange juice, can do more damage to teeth than soft drinks. Soft drinks and citric juices are the top contenders in dental erosion. The reason being there are acids contained in these drinks that dissolve any hard surfaces of the teeth that are exposed, such as the enamel. If the protective enamel is gone, the…
then Japanese noodles. Their dough was kneaded with kansui, a sodium carbonate infused mineral water.…
hydrogen peroxide in your medicine cabinet, forget it. Buy new bottles at the drug store or supermarket. Use BAKING SODA - NOT baking powder and especially NOT washing soda (Sodium Carbonate). Baking soda is also called: Sodium Bicarbonate, Sodium Bicarbonate, U.S.P., Bicarbonate of Soda, and Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate. Soap – Ivory liquid is the best soap for the job… or Soft-soap… You’re looking for a gentle cleaning soap. Do not use grease cutting dish soaps or…
Research Paper: Is there a better solution to keeping your teeth cleaner than just constantly brushing your teeth? That doesn’t mean you will need to stop brushing your teeth, but you can start by watching out for what type of beverages you are drinking. The most common cause for stained teeth is what you drink. Tea, coffee, and some soft drinks are the most common beverages we drink in our everyday lives that stain our teeth. In my experiment, I used a common household item, an…
vital ecosystems could be lost due to the continuous burning of coal. Most of our crabs, corals and other animals with exoskeletons are composed with calcium carbonate which helps give them that boney exterior structure that some even call home. It has even got so bad in some areas that snails and other animals that use calcium carbonate for their shell aren’t getting enough causing a decline in their populations. We would also be…
Stoichiometry equations of calculating the mass of calcium carbonate and magnesium chloride needed to produce one gram of calcium chloride. The required masses were carefully measured on a scale, and then added to a beaker containing 30 mL of distilled water. When an aqueous solution was made, the solution…
organic matter deposition. Source rocks have been associated with high organic productivity combined with upwelling and anoxic environments. Anoxic waters are waters depleted of all dissolved oxygen. Utica shale is black shale, because of its high carbonate content. A look at shales exposed in the Appalachian Mountains reveals elongated belts of folded and thrusted faults in marine sedimentary rocks. Convection cells in the Earth’s mantle drove the movement of tectonic plates to form the basin.…
Number two seller is what? Calcium citrate… and calcium citrate is just calcium carbonate that's reacted with citric acid, so it’s also stone, and what’s the number three seller? Calcium citrate malate and that also is just chemically reacted rock. So you have the top three selling calcium ingredients are rock, rock, and rock. OK, that represents more than ninety percent of calcium supplements. I'm being conservative in saying ninety. Would you eat a lemon and limestone pie? Probably not right?…
Goals The overall goal of this project was to identify an unknown ionic compound; each group was assigned a small container filled with 5 grams of an unknown ionic compound. In order to be able to identify the unknown compound, we had to do several preliminary tests, cation tests, anion tests, and a reactivity test. Throughout these three weeks, we will identify a compound and its qualities just by looking at it. We also made quantitative and qualitative solutions and tested the compounds' pH,…
ability to absorb and muffle low frequency sound by 40%, which makes certain parts of the ocean noisier than other parts. Ocean acidification alters the reproduction in some species. Species that have or grow shells or have an exoskeleton of calcium carbonate like prawns, molluscs, gastropods and corals. With animals without protection are most vulnerable to get eaten or attacked by predator, this means that there will be rapid changes throughout the food chain. Furthermore, it affects the…
