Ludwigshafen (ots)

A calcified kettle can become a real energy-eater. You first use 
energy to heat the chalk before the water can even get hot. That is 
why it is important to dissolve or remove the chalk or lime 
regularly. But why does a kettle actually calcify? In entertaining 
weekly episodes our Chemical Reporter answers questions on Chemistry 
in our everyday life.
