Why does limestone after it is heated the solid was cooled in a dry argon atmosphere?

Limestone, when heated produces calcium oxide (CaO) and carbon dioxide (CO2). CaO is highly reactive and will combine with CO2 from the atmosphere to reverse the above process. It will also react with any water vapour in the atmosphere to form calcium hydroxide (CaOH). These reactions can be prevented by allowing the CaO to cool in an inert environment such as that provided by argon.

Argon is it a solid liquid gas?

This depends on temperature and pressure, consider h2o. Is "water" a solid liquid or gas? Clouds are water vapor as is steam, rivers oceans and lakes are liquid, and icebergs are solids. However, Argon is a gas in earths atmosphere so at those conditions it is a gas. Argon is solid at temperatures below -189.3°C, at which temperature it liquefies. It is a gas at temperatures of -185.86°C and higher.

What is it called when a solid gas and liquid is cooled?

A solid gas, like dry ice (frozen carbon dioxide), is already frozen and will continue to be frozen if it is cooled. If a liquid is cooled to its freezing point, then it will freeze and become a solid.
