Dissolving calcite. (A) Mass loss of pure, synthetic calcite crystals in pure DI water; (B) SEM of the single particle (mass ∼4.4 ng) glued to a cantilever; (C) glue residue after dissolution; (D) mass loss of one Iceland spar calcite cleavage fragment exposed to ASW in tests where Ca concentration was slightly above saturation and where the solution was Ca-free and finally pure DI water; (E) calcite mass approximately 420 pg; and (F) glue residue after dissolution was complete.
