What else can I help you with?
What type of rection is taking place when limestone is heated?
it is the decomposition reaction, CaCO3 = CaO + CO2
How do you know that the decomposition of limestone is an endothermic reaction?
Endothermic means that a reaction needs heat to occur. Limestone needs to be heated to decompose into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide
What is formed when limestone 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.
Whats the limestone heating reaction?
When limestone (calcium carbonate) is heated, it undergoes thermal decomposition to produce calcium oxide (quicklime) and carbon dioxide gas. The chemical equation for this reaction is: CaCO3 (s) → CaO (s) + CO2 (g).
What happens when limestone (calcium carbonate) is heated?
When limestone is heated, it undergoes thermal decomposition to produce calcium oxide (quicklime) and carbon dioxide gas. This reaction is represented by the equation: CaCO3 (s) -> CaO (s) + CO2 (g).
What is the name and formula of the gas that is also produced when limestone is heated?
Carbon dioxide (CO2). The reaction is CaCO3--->CaO + CO2.
If you heated limestone how would you expect the mass of the limestone to compare with the mass of calcium oxide?
When limestone is heated, it undergoes a chemical reaction that releases carbon dioxide gas, leaving behind calcium oxide. As a result, the mass of the limestone would be greater than the mass of the calcium oxide produced, due to the loss of carbon dioxide during the reaction.
What substance is made when limestone and clay are heated together?
Limestone, CaCO3 decomposes into quicklime, CaO, and carbon dioxide, CO2, when heated. The reaction is: CaCO3 + heat --> CaO + CO2.
What substance is heated with limestone to prodce cement?
its heated with something
What can be heated with clay to make cement?
calcium carbonate (limestone)
What happenes when quick lime is heated?
Limestone is calcium carbonate (CaCO3) which when heated to above 840°C decomposes into calcium oxide (CaO) while releasing carbon dioxide (CO2) according to the equation: CaCO3(s) → CaO(s) + CO2(g). CaO is commonly known as lime, quicklime, or burnt lime. Click the Wikipedia article link below for information on its uses and history.
What sort of rock does marbles come from?
The rock type, marble, is limestone that has been heated and put under pressure.
