What is the name of the harden carbonate material that develops from the accumulation of calcium carbonate within the subsoil?
Answer may be Stalactite and Stalagmite, found in caves of South America. (Inhabited by millions of Vampire Bats. )
What is a pendant of calcium carbonate which hangs from the roof of a limestone cave called?
A calcite stalactite.
What element can be found in calcium carbonate?
Calcium carbonate is made of the elements calcium, carbon, and oxygen.
What is limestone calcium carbonate or calcium sulfate?
Limestone is primarily composed of calcium carbonate. However, calcium sulfate is not typically found in limestone; it is a separate mineral known as gypsum.
What are the minerals found in salt?
Calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate are found in bones .
What is a stalactite made from?
A stalactite is made of mineral deposits, typically calcium carbonate, that accumulate as water drips from the ceiling of a cave. Over time, these deposits form a cone-shaped structure that hangs down from the cave ceiling.
What compound is made from the elements oxygen calcium and carbon?
Calcium carbonate is the compound made from the elements oxygen, calcium, and carbon. It is commonly found in rocks, shells, and pearls.

Calcium, Carbon, Oxygen
What elements are found in an egg?
calcium carbonate
What is the main chemical found in egg shells?
The main chemical found in egg shells is calcium carbonate. It provides strength and structure to the shell, helping to protect the developing embryo inside the egg.
What kind of substance is calcium carbonate?
Calcium carbonate is a chemical compound. It is a common substance found in rocks, shells of marine organisms, and eggshells. Calcium carbonate is widely used in industries such as construction, food, pharmaceuticals, and agriculture.
How does the formation of stalactite related to the action of acids on calcium carbonate?
The acid is Carbonic Acid, formed by Carbon Dioxide from the atmosphere dissolving into rain-water, and though very weak capable of dissolving limestone whose main constituent is calcium Carbonate. The stalactites are of calcite, crystallised calcium carbonate precipitated from that solution.
