No, limestone is a carbonate rock formed through chemical precipitation. Sandstone is a classification used for sedimentary rocks ranging in various sizes and compositions. Limestone is CaCO3 where as sandstones are usually quartz (SiO2) and feldspars.
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 → CaO + CO2.
Heat will not change limestone to sandstone. Heat and pressure could change limestone to marble however.
Limestone is mainly calcium carbonate, when heated it breaks down to form calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. Calcium oxide reacts with water to become calcium hydroxide
no it turns into lime
Quartzite is metamorphosed sandstone.
Sandstone. Limestone is of deeper water formation.
Basalt. Shale, Sandstone, and Limestone are all sedimentary rocks
Limestone
like butthoe
here are four easy types of sedimentary rocks: limestone, sandstone, shale, and coal. =)
No. Limestone changes to Marble when it undergoes intense heat and pressure.
Once burnt limestone turns into calcium oxide which is known as quicklime.
Limestone and sand stone are both sedimentary rocks, and marble is made out of limestone when heated . :) Hope that helped.

Any heat source, whether man-made or natural.

It is made up of limestone not sandstone
limestone and sandstone are found under ground and oil is there to
Sandstone. Limestone is of deeper water formation.

Sandstone is not an organic sedimentary rock, but limestone is.
No. Limestone turns into marble, not sandstone.
