Why do greenhouse gas emissions harm creatures with shells made of calcium carbonate?

Carbon dioxide reacts with water to form carbonic acid, making the oceans more acidic. This increases the solubility of calcium carbonate, making it more difficult to make shells.

How is Calcium carbonate used to neutralise acid emissions from power stations?
The calcium carbonate reacts with the acid as per any carbonate: Calcium Carbonate + Acid -> Calcium Salt + Water + Carbon Dioxide
What chemical limestone form?
Calcium carbonate or calcium magnesium carbonate.
How does calcium carbonate increase atmospheric pollution?
When it is heated, carbon dioxide is formed which is a greenhouse gas. This means that the Earth's atmosphere becomes polluted.
What is the compound name for Ca2C?
Calcium Carbonate - also called limestone, calcite, chalk, and marble.
Is Haematite made from calcium carbonate?
Hematite is not made from calcium carbonate.
Does calcium carbonate remove harmful emissions?
no.
How is Calcium carbonate used to neutralise acid emissions from power stations?

How does calcium carbonate reduce harmful emissions from coal-fired power stations?
Coal contains sulphur and when this is burnt(heated) sulphur dioxide is produced, this is a greenhouse gas. To remove this greenhouse gas, this gas is passed a mechanism like a shower that is able to dissolve it and make it an acid. Then this acid sulphur is neutralized with calcium carbonate to form calcium sulphate, water and carbon dioxided
What is the main ingredient of limestone?
Limestone is a sedimentary rock primarily composed of calcium carbonate. Usually the remains of sea creatures are the original source of the calcium carbonate.
Limestone made from calcium carbonate from skeletons and shells of the sea creatures are called?
fossilferous
Is the carbonate or the calcium the buffer in calcium carbonate?
The carbonate. Calcium is neutral.
What is the IUPAC name for the compound CaCO3?
Calcium Carbonate :)
What is limestone calcium carbonate or calcium sulfate?
Calcium carbonate.
What chemical limestone form?
Calcium carbonate or calcium magnesium carbonate.
What are marble chip made of?
CaCO3 (Calcium Carbonate)
