Ca(HCO3)2 is a white powder at room temperature. It is soluble in water. If the concentration of Mg(HCO3)2 or Ca(HCO3)2 is too high, the water is called hard water.
Example Reactions:
• CaCO3 + CO2 + H2O = Ca(HCO3)2
• Ca(OH)2 + 2CO2 = Ca(HCO3)2
• CaCO3 + H2CO3 = Ca(HCO3)2
• CaO + H2O + 2CO2 = Ca(HCO3)2
• 2CO2 + CaSiO3 + H2O = SiO2 + Ca(HCO3)2
• Ca(HCO3)2 + 2HCl = CaCl2 + 2CO2 + 2H2O
• Ca(HCO3)2 + Ca(OH)2 = 2CaCO3↓ + 2H2O
• Ca(HCO3)2 + H2SO3 = CaSO3 + 2H2CO3
• Ca(OH)2 + Mg(HCO3)2 = Mg(OH)2↓ + Ca(HCO3)2
• Ca(HCO3)2 + 2HBr = CaBr2 + 2H2O + 2CO2
