A stone roof is supported by collumns made up of limestone why might this be unsafe after a fire in a building explain the chemical process involved in the weakening of the structure?
Limestone is CaCO3. Let us decompose it:CaCO3 ---> CaO + CO2Heating the limestone will cause the above reaction to take place and replace the relatively firm structure of the limestone rock with a more powdery structure of the CaO. Another example might be this:Mg + (1/2)O2 ---> MgOThe relatively hard structure of the magnesium metal is replaced by a powdery MgO and the MgO structure falls apart into a heap of MgO dust.Source(s):ChemTeam
Why do you find shells sticking out of the stone in buildings?
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.
