Best Answer

When a drop of dilute hydrochloric acid is placed on a piece of Chalk, the acid reacts with the calcite and forms bubbles of carbon dioxide. This "fizz" reaction is so characteristic of limestone than many geologists carry a small bottle of dilute hydrochloric acid into the field for a rapid and easy identification of limestone. During the reaction, the bubbles of carbon dioxide rise, then turn a brownish color, and then decrease in size. This is weird because the hydrochloric acid starts out as a white fizz.
