What happens if you heat limestone?

Limestone is calcium carbonate (CaCO3) which when heated to above 840°C decomposes into calcium oxide (CaO) while releasing carbon dioxide (CO2) according to the equation: CaCO3 → CaO + CO2


What do you see when limestone is heated very strongly?

simply it breaks out due to forming of carbon dioxide in the gaps if it takes place in an close atmosphere with high pressure than turns into marble.
