What is the formula of creating quicklime from limestone?
quick lime is CaO and limestone is CaCO3 and the method to prepare limestone out of quick lime is just heat the limestone. CaCO3--------CaO + CO2 HEAT
What are the agents of lithification?
Lithification refers to the process in which sediments compact under pressure. The two primary agents of lithification are compaction and cementation.
During lithification what two processes occur?
Lithification involves the compaction and cementation of sediment into rock.
What is compaction followed by in the lithification process?
In the lithification process, compaction is followed by cementation. It is the hardening and welding of clastic sediments by the precipitation of mineral matter.
What are the two main stages of lithification?
compaction and cementation

Is limestone renewable or non renewable?
I think it's not renewable because if we use all the limestone in the world we wont have any left to know how to make it on our own, but it may be renewable cause it is made from our planet Earth. +++ I'm not sure I can follow that first answer. It is not renewable. Although new limestone is being formed in various places around the world, the rate of deposition and lithification, let alone uplift, is far lower than that of our removal of existing rock.
