What's the word equation for the thermal decomposition of calcium carbonate? :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

My premature newborn son passed away 18 years ago and was buried in a wooden coffin. I am about to relocate and want to exhume his remains to be cremated. I need to know how long does it take for a premature newborn body to decompose and will I find any remains left to cremate?

I am writing a story, and I needed a little forensic help. What would a corpse look like after ten years of burial in a coffin, average winters/summers/rain and etc (average being average for places that get around three to eight inches of snow every year. How much slower does a body pumped full...

Please explain your answer ;) thankz for your help Like I said: How do we know it is a decompositon reaction? :confused:

This gruesome question is research for a novel... can you tell me the chronology of decomposition of a newborn body shallowly buried in freezing/near freezing outdoor temperature? How long would the body remain intact for identification of a cause of death?
