What is the full cycle of limestone?
The limstone cycle: 1. Limstone (CaCO3) - Heat limestone to produce quicklime 2. Quicklime (CaO) - Add a few drops of water to produce slaked lime 3. Slake lime (Ca(OH)2(s)) - Add excess water to produce Limewater 4. Limewater (Ca(OH)3(aq) ) - Bubble CO2 gas into limewater to produce limestone This is called a cycle because it happens again and again...
How does water in the spaces of a limestone cause physical weathering of the limestone?
Water in the spaces of limestone can cause physical weathering through a process called freeze-thaw. When water seeps into the cracks and pores of the limestone, it freezes and expands upon freezing, exerting pressure on the surrounding rock. This expansion and contraction cycle weakens the limestone, causing it to crack and break apart over time.
