Reef Chemistry Question of the Day [HASHTAG]#184[/HASHTAG]
Which of the following common reef tank additives cannot be mixed due to the likelihood of a solid precipitate forming?
A. Calcium hydroxide dissolved in water (kalkwasser) plus magnesium chloride dissolved in water
B. Calcium chloride dissolved in water plus magnesium chloride dissolved in water
C. Sodium bicarbonate dissolved in water plus sodium carbonate dissolved in water
D. Calcium chloride dissolved in water plus vinegar
Assume that each of them is basically pure so that you are not assessing the precipitation of impurities.
Good luck!
