Generally dolomitic lime contains 25-30% CaCO3. The amount of any calcium in any lime is standardized to Calcium carbonate, using CCE, Calcium carbonate equivalent.
I know calcium carbonate is consumed by pregnant woment in the south-eastern parts of Nigeria. it is also called 'calabar chalk'. I have not seen any medical for the consumtion of calcium carbonate.
Chalk is essentially calcium carbonate, CaCO3, and in not soluble in water to any significant extent.
When chalk (calcium carbonate) reacts with sodium carbonate, a double displacement reaction occurs. The products of this reaction are calcium carbonate and sodium carbonate. The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is: CaCO3 + Na2CO3 → CaCO3 + Na2CO3
Calcium carbonate is used in power stations to neutralize acid emissions by reacting with sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides in the flue gas. The reaction forms calcium sulfate, calcium nitrate, and water, which are less harmful and can be safely disposed of. This process helps reduce the environmental impact of acid rain caused by these acidic emissions.
Carbon dioxide does not react with calcium carbonate unless water is present. Carbon dioxide plus calcium carbonate plus water produces calcium bicarbonate. The balanced chemical equation is:CO2(g) + CaCO3(s) + H2O(l) --> Ca(HCO3)2(aq)
A calcium carbonate supplement is 40% calcium, which is higher than any other calcium supplement.

Calcium oxide, also known as quicklime, can be prepared by heating calcium carbonate (found in limestone or marble) in a furnace at around 900-1000°C. The chemical reaction that occurs is: CaCO3(s) → CaO(s) + CO2(g). The calcium oxide is then separated from any remaining calcium carbonate or impurities.
The eggshells of quail, or any other bird, are mainly calcium carbonate (usually about 95%). The remainder is mostly calcium phosphate, magnesium carbonate, and various proteins.
The chemical reaction between calcium carbonate and milk involves the formation of calcium ions (Ca2+) along with other products. The calcium ions may bind with proteins in milk, such as casein, forming complexes that can precipitate out of solution. This can result in the formation of a residue or sediment in the milk.
