Best Answer

I assume you mean calcium carbonate, calcite.

CaCO3 + 2HCl --> CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O

That particular reaction product would be carbon dioxide.

What happens when water and chalk mix?

When a drop of dilute hydrochloric acid is placed on a piece of Chalk, the acid reacts with the calcite and forms bubbles of carbon dioxide. This "fizz" reaction is so characteristic of limestone than many geologists carry a small bottle of dilute hydrochloric acid into the field for a rapid and easy identification of limestone. During the reaction, the bubbles of carbon dioxide rise, then turn a brownish color, and then decrease in size. This is weird because the hydrochloric acid starts out as a white fizz.


What happen when dilute nitric acid is added to a sample of chalk?

Chalk is calcium carbonate (CaCO3) thus addition of dilute acid will produce carbon dioxide and a calcium salt. E.g. addition of dilute hydrochloric acid will produce CO2 and calcium chloride (CaCl2).
