i am not much of a chemist
a couple of days ago i bought acetic acid 99.5%, calcium carbonate 98.5% USP grade and kalkwasser and my oolitic sand from my reef tank. in 3 different cups i added a 1tsp of each of the calcium product above and 1tsp of the acidic acid into each cop few hrs later calcium carbonate no changes kalkwasser all desolved with enough acid to dessolve more reef sand desolved with enough acid to dessolve more why did the calcium carbonate not dessolve |
