Argon does not react with limestones
Solid Argon is more dense than the liquid phase
It contracts.
It is a solid at room temperature.
Matter has more density when solid than when in a liquid state. The atoms are closer together.
a solid is formed
Gas in atmosphere: argon Liquid in atmosphere: water (as rain) Solid in atmosphere: dust

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.
i think argon is solid
Solid Argon is more dense than the liquid phase
calcium is solid. argon and hydrogen are gases
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.
Argon is a gas at STP. It becomes a liquid below -186oC and solid below -190oC at StP
a liquid then if cooled further it would turn into a solid a liquid then if cooled further it would turn into a solid
No, it is not.
no it expands with heat, it shrinks when 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.
