What is the Equation for when carbonate reacts with acid?
A reaction between an acid and a carbonate gives a salt, water and carbon dioxide. So the word equation is: acid + carbonate -----> salt + carbon dioxide + water eg: hydrochloric acid + calcium carbonate ----> calcium chloride + carbon dioxide + water See: http://www.sky-web.net/science/reaction-types.htm
How can you test a rock to see if it contains calcium carbonate?
The traditional test is to put a few drops of 5% hydrochloric acid on it; carbonate minerals produce bubbles of carbon dioxide. This doesn't specifically test for calcium carbonate. It could be magnesium carbonate or some other carbonate mineral instead. Making sure it's calcium requires more elaborate equipment such as a flame emission spectrometer.
Does hydrochloric acid make calcium carbonate bubble?
Let's see. CaCO3 + 2HCl -> CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O By reacting with this acid carbon dioxide is produced, thus the bubbles of gas in the product solution.
Why does calcite bubble in vinegar?
Calcite is an impure form of Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3). Vinegar is the every=day name for the carboxylic acid , Ethanoic (Acetic) Acid (CH3COOH). Remember for all acid/carbonate reactions. Acid + Carbonate = Salt + Water + Carbon Dioxide((g) - bubbles). Hence 2CH3COOH + CaCO3 = Ca(CH3COO)2(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g) The Effervescence (Bubbles)- you see is the carbon dioxide (CO2) being liberated.
What is the chemical equation for vinegar and an egg shell?
the make up of a chicken egg is predominately CaCO_3_ when added to vinger or dilute acetic acid CH_3_CHOOH you will see bubbles form. The formed bubbles are CO_2_ gas being formed while the eggshell dissolves. the Chemical break down then becomes CO2 + H+ (H30) + CaCH3CHOO.
Why does the vinegar eat the eggshell?
Because the acetic acid in the vinegar reacts with the solid calcium carbonate crystals that make up the eggshell, separating them into their calcium and carbonate parts, the calcium ions floats free and the carbonate makes the bubbles (carbon dioxide) that you can see on the egg. The protein that binds the calcium and carbonate is the froth that you can see on the top.
Does citric acid dissolve calcium carbonate?
Yes, i did a project on it. Try it and see for yourself.
What would you observe before dilute acetic acid is added to calcium carbonate?
Before you add it, you'll observe nothing, but after addition you might see evolution of carbon dioxide depending on concentration of the acid.
How do I make calcium carbonate crystals?
Calcium Carbonate is insoluble chemical compound so all you have to do is decant or filter.... think about this, how do you separate sea shells from water? sea shells are made from calcium carbonate, that's why you see then on the beach all the time because they are insoluble.

What will be formed when hydrochloric acid is added to calcium carbonate?
The reaction between limestone and hydrochloric acid is an acid-carbonate reaction producing a salt, carbon dioxide and water. Limestone is chemically known as calcium carbonate (insoluble salt) and has the formula CaCO3. Hydrochloric acid is an acid and is written as HCl. When calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid reacts the following is formed: - Calcium chloride CaCl2 (soluble salt) - Carbon dioxide (CO2 gas) - Water (H2O) Due to the carbon dioxide being released, the observer will be able to see bubbling, effervescence or fizzing. CaCO3(s) + 2H+(aq) + [2Cl-(aq)] --> Ca2+(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l) + [2Cl-(aq)]
What is calcium carbonate made up of?
It is made up of carbon, oxygen and calcium. A carbonate contains oxygen and carbon so you know that, and then you can see that as it is called calcium carbonate it also contains calcium. :)

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.

What you see when carbon dioxide is bubbled through calcium hydroxide solution?
You will see a preciptate of Calcium Carbonate [CaCO3] The Calcium Hydroxied is said to turn 'Milky' or 'Chalky' The chalkyness so described is the water insoluble Calcium Carbonate being deposited as it is formed.
