Are you sure about the structure for Ca Cl ?? Why do all the ions connect to one in the middle ?

It's not converging at the centre...the bold lines are just showing the 3-D structure
the connecting lines are not in bold...

Yes, indeed, of all the 3 sciences, bio has a vast portion....
You may have a good revision guide for igcse....http://www.amazon.co.uk/IGCSE-Study-Guide-Biology-Guides/dp/071957904X
It's excellent

But remember to read your textbook...never leave that out....
And if u don't understand a concept on reading, look online for help....some good diagrams and videos might help.....if u still have problems, post them here  ;)

well, wen carboantes react with acids, they give out CO2.

Thus, you will be able to test for the CO2 using limewater.

So simply collect tha gas given off in the reaction between a carbonate and an acid.

And then test the gas given off using limewater. Limewater will become cloudy.

The solubility of carbonates decrease down the group.

Thats all you need to know for now, as for particular carbonates, simply search the web to see whether they are soluble or not.
