Limestone erodes with water. Limestone can also erode through water getting in to the cracks and then freezing. This causes the crack to expand and will begin to erode the limestone.
Yes. That is why caves and other types of caverns are most often made of (or found in) limestone.
This is because in the wet climates the limestone will break apart due to the rain. And in dry climates it does nothing to the limestone. Therefore, this is why limestone can form cliffs in dry climates than wet climates.
The noun for erode is "erosion".
it pulls down items that erode it...
because waves roll against it. forcing it to erode
erode?

The trace chemicals in rainwater erode the limestone - thus the cracks get wider.
Because the building is made of limestone, and the shells became integral to the limestone as it was being formed, but they don't erode as quickly as the limestone in the rain.
Lichens and mosses erode rocks by producing acids. These acids lead to the deterioration of rocks, such as limestone and marble.
yes, tourists will walk on limestone all year round, for example: if it's wet tourists will erode the rock as limestone is porous so it will crumble easily.
Limestone is a rock that is about 10 percent of the total amount of all the rock formations. Limestone can be very soluble and tends to erode easily. When erosion starts the limestone can be crumbly.
Some rocks are harder than others like sandstone which is very soft. Other times rock can have different conditions under which they will erode faster such as limestone.
Yes. That is why caves and other types of caverns are most often made of (or found in) limestone.
Teeth are mostly modified limestone (calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, calcium fluoride, etc.) reinforced with various proteins. Just like acids erode ordinary limestone (calcium carbonate) they erode teeth, bacteria then can make the exposed proteins rot (producing even more acid).
it starts to weather (erode). Details of the chemical reaction can be found by following the link below.
Yes, the acid in rain water commonly corrodes it.
