If limestone was crushed what would it do to the rate of reaction between an acid and the limestone?
If the limestone was crushed the reaction would speed up because the limestone would have a larger surface area available to react with the acid.
What is the symbol equation for heating limestone?
The reaction is:CaCO3------------CaO + CO2
How is limestone affected by hail?
No reaction!
How is Limestone affected by wind?

How can calcium Hydroxide be made from Limestone?
Calcium hydroxide can be made from limestone by heating the limestone (calcium carbonate) while heating the carbon dioxide is given off . this turns the limestone into calcium oxide and now if you add a little water the calcium oxide will turn into calcium hydroxide Hope it helped you....:) The process can be shown in a flow diagram called the 'limestone reaction cycle'
