What mineral formation would be most effective at neutralizing acid rain?

I suppose Chalk is one of the most effective.
It reacts easily with acid, neutralizing it.
It is readily available, and it is cheap, in other words very costeffective.
It is not a dangerous compound and don't make poison in the process of neutralizing acid rain.
Other minerals might be more effective (out of my knowledge) but will not be as readily available and cheap as chalk is.

Is gold igneous metamorphic or sedimentary?
Sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic are terms used to describe the processes in formation and types of rocks. Gold is a mineral, therefore these terms do not apply. Gold is an elemental metallic mineral.
What mineral property is the least useful property?
The least effective property used to identify most minerals would be the color. The color of a mineral can be altered by impurities.
A natural inorganic solid with a specific composition and structure is a?
Is called a mineral
What are the differences of crystal and mineral formation?
Mineral crystal formation is a naturally occurring process of inorganic material. Crystal formation can occur in organic material as well, but would not be considered mineralogical crystal formation.
What mineral formations would be most effective at neutralizing acid rain nitrogen oxygen calcium carbonate magnesium acetate or baking soda?
acid rain is acidic. so a base like baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) can be used to neutralize it.
What would be most effective in neutralizing acid rain - nitrogen oxygen calcium carbonate magnesium acitate or baking soda?
calcium carbonate

Why has there been an increase in world mineral reserves?
Any increase would be due to discoveries and cost-effective discoveries in mineral resource retrievability.
Which new chemicals would be effective against Giardia?
a chemical that inhibits the formation of cell walls
Why is mineral texture an important aspect of petrography?
Mineral texture provides clues as to the origin of the rock particles and the processes which lead to the rock's formation. Texture would include the size and arrangement of the mineral crystals or particles found in the body of a rock.
Mineral formation caused by high pressures and high temperatures would most likely occur in which environments?
deep within earth
In which environment would mineral formation caused by high pressures and high temperatures most likely occur?

What two conditions produce crystals with well-defined faces?
Beneficial to euhedral crystal shapes would be the proper temperature and length of time spent in ideal conditions for crystal formation for the particular mineral. Ideal conditions would include: space available for mineral crystal growth and availability or supply of mineral rich solutions bearing mineral components.
