The gas carbon dioxide is released.
The gas released in the reaction of calcium carbonate with hydrochloric acid is carbon dioxide. CaCO3 + 2 HCl = CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O
carbon dioxide and water
Carbon Dioxide
Calcium carbonate is a base and hydrochloric acid is an acid but their combined pH depends on ther initial concentrations.
My guess is that it would not "fizz" at all.The Fizz that one often sees when mixing calcium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, etc with an acid is the releasing carbon dioxide CO2 from the Carbonate ion CO32-.Calcium Chloride is a salt. It will likely dissociate in the solution, but I doubt it will "fizz".If you mix Hydrochloric Acid with Calcium Carbonate you get:2HCl + CaCO3 --> CaCl2 + H2CO3 --> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2Where the Calcium Chloride is more likely kept in solution as Ca2+ + 2Cl-
this produces carbon dioxide

Limescale is mostly calcium carbonate with some magnesium carbonate mixed in there as well. So the answer would be calcium.

Any reaction occur.

Any chemical reaction, only some solubility.
