The first is a round green object called a lime. The second often larger subunit is called stone.
quicklime is formed when lmesone is heated
When heated, limestone forms two different things. It forms both calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. This occurs because limestone is made up of calcium carbonate.
The main component of limestone is calcium carbonate (CaCO3). As you can see it is made of three elements not two. (Ca Calcium) (C Carbon) and (O Oxygen).
When two different elements react to form a compound, the reaction can always properly be called a synthesisreaction.
Water is a COMPOUND because it is formed from atoms of two elements.
Sandstone And Limestone
Limestone is a compound because it consists of two or more elements: CaCO3
A compound is formed when two or more elements bond together.
Limestone is basically a chemical compound formed of two three elements: Calcium (Ca) and Carbon (C) and Oxygen (O).The compound is called calcium carbonate and has the chemical forumla CaCO3. It is also found in substances such as egg shells.
Limestone and coal are two important organic rocks.
Compounds are formed by the reaction of two or more elements.
A molecule is formed
