Did I really just swallow that?

On the ingredients list of the now-decipherable Centrum Multivitamin/Multimineral Supplement, I ran into some ionic compounds that were understandable.  All ten listed below were on said ingredients list; it really is a multi-ionic compound supplement!

1) calcium carbonate




2) magnesium oxide




3) potassium chloride




4) cupric [copper (II)] sulfate




5) manganese sulfate

a) manganese (II) sulfate




b) manganese (III) sulfate





6) nickelous [nickel (II)] sulfate




7) zinc oxide




8) stannous [tin (II)] chloride




9) potassium iodide




10) sodium selenate



You can find ten more examples on my partner's blog.  Click here
