Was out down south and thought i sould take some chemistry to their, i went to bunnings to look for calcium carbonate and saw 2kg for $13, but it said only 37% CaCO3 so i thought that was shit, so i thought, how could i make it easy...... sea shells, so i collected heaps to do this reaction to get almost pure CaCO3
CaCO3 +2 HCl = CO2 + CaCl2 + H2O
CaCl2 + NaHCO3 = CO2 + CaCO3 + H2O + NaCl
Enjoy
