Popular questions
Is calcium sulfite soluble in water?
It is only slightly soluble in water; its solubility increases in acidic conditions due to formation of bisulfite.
What is the formula for calcium sulfite?
CaSO3, commonly encountered as hydrates such as CaSO3·½H2O (hemihydrate) or CaSO3·4H2O (tetrahydrate).
1. how many grams of ca2+ are present in 4.28 grams of calcium sulfite?
About 1.43 g of Ca2+, assuming anhydrous CaSO3 (4.28 g × 40.08/120.16).
Balance calcium sulfite decomposes when heated to form calcium oxide and sulfur dioxide?
CaSO3 → CaO + SO2.
E226 girlsdoporn who?
E226 is the food additive code for calcium sulphite; the rest of the query appears unrelated to this additive.
Is citric acid bad for you?
At typical food levels, citric acid (E330) is considered safe by major regulators (GRAS; EFSA/JECFA). Concentrated or frequent acidic exposure can irritate the mouth/stomach or contribute to tooth enamel erosion.
Where does the citric acid cycle occur?
In eukaryotic cells it occurs in the mitochondrial matrix; in bacteria it occurs in the cytosol.
What does citric acid do to your body?
It is a normal intermediate in energy metabolism and is readily metabolized to carbon dioxide and water. Citrate can bind minerals, which may enhance absorption of some and help prevent certain kidney stones by increasing urinary citrate.
Where does citric acid come from?
It occurs naturally in citrus fruits, but most food-grade citric acid is produced by fermenting sugars (e.g., from corn, beet, or cane) with Aspergillus niger.
How is citric acid made?
Industrially, sugars are fermented with Aspergillus niger to produce citric acid, then it is recovered and purified—often by precipitating calcium citrate and converting it back with sulfuric acid or via ion-exchange/crystallization.
