Is CaCO3 an acid?
No, it's an alkali.
What is the effect of CaCO3 on acids' pH level?
CaCO3 is a base. It will neutralize acid and hence the pH of acid increases (tends to reach neutral pH)
What is the potentiality of chicken eggshells as neutralizer to acidic acid?
I think you mean acetic acid. Eggshells contain calcium carbonate, CaCO3, which is a base.
What is the word formula for calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid?
CaCO3 AND HCl
Symbol equation for limestone and hydrochloric acid?
Limestone is predominantly calcium carbonate, CaCO3, and reacts with hydrochloric acid as follows: CaCO3(s) + 2HCl(aq) --> CaCl2(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O

What is the Balanced equation for calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid reacting?
CaCO3 + HCl --> CaHCO3 or with excess of HCl CaCO3 + 2HCl --> CaCl2 +CO2 + H2O
What salt is made using citric acid?
any carbonate salt as CaCO3....
Write a chemical equation for the solution of dolomite by carbonic acid?
Limestone = CaCo3. Therefore :- CaCO3 --(HEAT)--> CaO + CO2 This is known as thermal decompostition.
Why is CaCO3 a salt?
CACO3 is a salt because it contains a metal(calcium) as well as a non-metal/s(carbon & oxygen).It can be made by mixing acid and a base.
Why does CaCo3 otherwise called marble chips react with vinegar?
CaCO3 (calcium carbonate) is a mild base, and as such reacts to neutralise acids. Vinegar is a dilute solution of acetic acid (AcH). CaCO3 + 2AcH --> H2O + CO2 + CaAc
What does Acid plus CaCO3 produce?
Carbon dioxide (gas), water and Ca2+ ions.
How can carbon dioxide be produced using an acid and a metal carbonate?
you add hcl and caco3
