∙ 13y agoOK the simplest form of calcium carbonate would be lime stone, it is made up of many calcium compounds but mainly calcium carbonate, sea shells are also 100% CaCO3, hope it helps
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoAnyhydrous calcium carbonate is the correct term or u can say crystalized calcium carbonate
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoThe minerals calcite and aragonite are the two best known forms,both have the chemicl formula of CaCO3 the difference is in the ionic lattice. Calcite is the most stable.
Wiki User
∙ 15y agoThe mineral calcite is calcium carbonate. The bulk of limestone is also mostly calcium carbonate.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoIt's calcite.

What type of reaction occurs when calcium carbonate is heated?
Thermal decomposition.
What type of change occurred in the acetic acid solution when you placed the calcium carbonate chip in it?
it bubbles up. and at that point the calcium carbonate under goes a change in color
What type of rock is most easily dissolved by slightly acidic groundwater?
Calcium Carbonate
What item is made out of calcium chloride and sodium carbonate and sodium chloride?
glass is the most important use of sodium carbonate. when it is combined with sand and calcium carbonate and heated at very high temperatures, and cooled rapidly, glass is prodused. this type of glass is known soda lime glass
What happens when you add calcium chloride to potassium carbonate?
When you add calcium chloride to potassium carbonate the products will be solid calcium carbonate and aqueous potassium chloride. The chemical equation for this reaction is CaCl2(aq) + K2CO3(aq) --> 2KCl(aq) + CaCO3(s). This type of reaction is called a double replacement/displacement reaction.
Which type of acid has calcium carbonate?
No acid contains calcium carbonate. Calcium carbonate is its own compound that is a base, not an acid. However, the erosion and deposition of calcium carbonate in nature is heavily influenced by carbonic acid.
Calcium carbonate can be used as an antacid to treat excess stomach acidity What type of substance is calcium carbonate?
base.
What type of tablet is calcium carbonate?
Comes in Antacids
Which type of rock is made of calcium carbonate?
limestone
Calcium carbonate is a type of hydrogenous sediment that can be buried and hardened into .?
Calcium oxide.
What type of grains is marble made from?
It is made from calcium carbonate.
What type of rock is marl?
A marl is a calcium carbonate rich mudstone.
What type of reaction occurs when calcium carbonate is heated?
Thermal decomposition.
What is the chemical formula of chalk?
Chalk is CaCO3. The chemical name for chalk is calcium carbonate. It is a porous sedimentary rock, and is also a type of limestone. The White Cliffs of Dover are actually made from chalk.
What type of change occurred in the acetic acid solution when you placed the calcium carbonate chip in it?
it bubbles up. and at that point the calcium carbonate under goes a change in color
What is the typical soil type for a coral reef biome?
Calcium carbonate based sand.
What type of rock is most easily dissolved by slightly acidic groundwater?
Calcium Carbonate
