Why does calcium carbonate react to acid rain?
sulfuric acid in the rain water reacts with calcium carbonate.
What happens when calcium carbonate reacts with rainwater?
Calcium carbonate is practically insoluble in pure water; if the rain water is acid calcium carbonate may be dissolved.
Which common salt is good for neutralizing acid rain?
Calcium Carbonate
How can acid rain be fixed?
A method is the treating of soils with powdered calcium carbonate.
How Does Acid Rain Wear Away Limestone?
Acid rain is probably sulphurous acid (H2SO3) Limestone is calcium carbonate. (CaCO3) Remember the general reaction equ'n Acid + Carbonate = salt + water +Carbonate dioxide. Hence H2SO3 + CaCO3 = CaSO3 + H2O + CO2 So the limestone has dissolved in to ,at best, calcium sulphite.
Why does calcium carbonate react to acid rain?
sulfuric acid in the rain water reacts with calcium carbonate.
What effects how quickly acid rain reacts with calcium carbonate?
It is cus of the lower
How does calcium carbonate help to reduce the amount of acid rain?
Calcium carbonate is an alkali. It reacts with the acids and neutralises the acid rain.
What affects how quickly acids react with calcium carbonate?
It's the concentration of the acid.Limestone and marble are forms of calcium carbonate.Acid rain reacts with calcium carbonate. The stronger the acid the more quickly it effects calcium carbonate and dissolves.
How long it takes for acid rain to react with calcium carbonate?
it takes about 36 years for the acid rain to react with calcium carbonate which include limestone and marble. HOPE this help!
What happens when calcium carbonate reacts with rainwater?

Can calcium oxide be used to neutralise water polluted with acid rain?
No, you need Calcium Carbonate not Calcium Oxide to neutralize the acid.
Which common salt is good for neutralizing acid rain?
Calcium Carbonate
Why lakes with limestone beds experience less adverse affects from acid rain than lakes with granite beds?
Limestone and marble (calcium carbonate) dissolve when in cntact with acid rain. Other building matrails like granite are not impacted by acid
What affects how quickly acid rain reacts with calcium carbonate?
