Calcium carbonate reactions with acid
« on: July 07, 2015, 03:15:13 PM »
I am looking for the chemical reactions of
Calcium carbonate + mono sodium citrate
and
Calcium carbonate + malic acid



I am mostly interested in the reaction by-products as these materials may be used in food grade polymers.  Thank you

You might start at writing balanced equations.
Plus give us your thoughts about the reaction.
That will give us a start as to how to teach you.

Reactions of all carbonates with acids are quite similar.

I know sodium citrate and malic acid can be both used in food, but can they really react with calcium carbonate?
