we can not live without limestone
otherwise we wouldn't have concrete
or nothing to stick the bricks together
also toothpaste has limestone in it!
We could live but we would have to revert to stone age times.
And Many would die.
Pure white limestone often forms in areas where the limestone has experienced very little exposure to impurities or contaminants during its formation process. This can happen in environments such as deep ocean basins, where the limestone can accumulate without being mixed with other sediments or minerals.
The acidic rain dissolves the calcium carbonate in limestone, causing it to slowly decompose over time. The process of limestone decomposition can take years due to the gradual nature of chemical weathering. The rate of decomposition can also vary depending on the strength and frequency of acid rain exposure.
The rate of loss of limestone increased as the experiment progressed. Initially, the reaction between the acid and limestone was slower, resulting in a lower rate of loss. However, as more limestone was consumed and the surface area for the reaction increased, the rate of loss of limestone accelerated.
The mass of limestone will depend on its density. The average density of limestone is around 2.71 grams per cubic centimeter. You can calculate the mass by multiplying the volume (0.0249 L) by the density. Therefore, the mass of 0.0249 L of limestone would be approximately 0.0675 kg.
Calcium oxide.
No. It is simply impossible. Limestone is used in everything we use in everyday life. Otherwise we would have to use wood which isnt officient. Limestone is used in toothpaste, brick, concrete, cement, glass and more!
Well we couldn't really survive without Limestone. Things such as buildings, roads and toothpaste are made from Limestone. Limestone contributes to even the tourist trade. The four main things Limestone contributes to buildings, making glass, improving soil fertility and the tourist trade. I am scared of apples they frighten me. I need help solving this phobia out. Please help. Limestone is Calcium Carbonate. Calcium Carbonate comes in Marble, chalk and Limestone. We could not brush our teeth mainly. This is because we can use other things to make buildings and make roads.

It is carved of natural limestone of Giza.
Construction of highways, brick and block structures, and roadbeds would be much more difficult as limestone is the main raw ingredient in cement.
You could conduct an acid test by applying a few drops of weak acid (such as vinegar) to the rock. If the rock is limestone, it will fizz or effervesce due to the reaction with the acid. Additionally, you could check the rock's physical properties, such as its color, hardness, and texture, which are characteristic of limestone.
Florida mostly lies on a limestone base, as the state is known for its extensive limestone formations. This geology contributes to Florida's unique landscape, including sinkholes, caves, and underground aquifers.
Limestone is a rock that can be formed through the accumulation of animal shells and skeletons, called biogenic limestone, or through the precipitation of calcium carbonate from evaporating seawater, known as chemical limestone.
If limestone undergoes contact metamorphism, it will typically turn into marble. Marble forms from the recrystallization of limestone under high temperature and pressure conditions.
The limestone containing a fossil would be heaated to a sufficiently high temperature (about 1,800 centigrade).then the limestone would become powder and the fossil which is not as sensitive to heat as limestone would remain un damaged
we wouldn't have these- -Limestone is used in buildings and roads. - Limestone can be used in glass making. - Limestone is used in toothpaste. - Limestone is used in cement and mortar. - Limestone is used in bread and cereals as a source of calcium. - Limestone is used to make paper white. -Limestone is used to purify sugar. -Pulverized limestone is used to neutralize acidic soils. -Limestone can be used to make brake pads. -Limestone is used in the preparation of wools and dyes. -Limestone is used to make antacids. -Limestone is used in climbing walls. -Limestone is used a suppression of methane explosions in underground coalmines. -Limestone is added to plastics, paint, tiles and other materials as both white pigment and cheap filler. -Limestone is used in the manufacture of quicklime (calcium oxide) and slaked lime (calcium hydroxide). -Limestone can be used to create steel by using it in a blast furnace.
from what i know is that marble is a type of limestone and acid dissolves limestone.
