the chemical name for limestone is Calcium Carbonate
Chemical formula is CaCo3
Calcium carbonate, CaCO3.
calcium carbonate
Chalk.
No. It is a physical or mechanical change.
No. Dolomite is formed by the replacement of Calcium in the mineral calcite by Magnesium, giving the chemical formula (Ca,Mg)CaCO3. Rocks formed largely of calcite are called limestones, and those which show extensive Magnesium substitution in calcite are called Dolomitic limestones.
Certain limestones, and gypsum.
organic sedimentary rocks such as coal and some limestones which form from the accumulation of plant or animal debris.
Limestone is a sedimentary rock composed mainly of calcium carbonate, formed from the remains of marine organisms. It is commonly used in construction for buildings, as a raw material for cement, and in agriculture to neutralize acidic soils. Examples of limestone include chalk, travertine, and coquina.
This would usually be caused by the dissolution of soluble rocks such as limestones. Dissolution is a chemical weathering process.

You can find limestones by defeating monsters in the /join quarry area in AdventureQuest Worlds. Keep battling monsters until they drop the limestones as loot. Good luck!
The limestone consists mainly of calcium carbonate: CaCO3 ,Calcite. Like most other sedimentary rocks, limestones are composed of grains, however, around 80-90% of limestone grains are skeletal fragments of marine organisms such as coral or foraminifera. Other carbonate grains comprising limestones are ooids, peloids, intraclasts, and extraclasts. Some limestones do not consist of grains at all and are formed completely by the chemical precipitation of calcite or aragonite. (i.e. travertine.)
