Important is the percentage of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in the material. For an equivalent mass of pure chalk or pure marble the quantity of released carbon dioxide is the same - the chemical formula is the same.

Which carbonate mineral reacts readily with cool dilute hydrochloric acid to produce visible bubbles of carbon dioxide gas?

Limestone, chalk and marble. They are all mineral forms of calcium carbonate.


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).


What is the effect of hydrochloric acid and chalk?

Chalk (used for writing on black board) contains Calcium carbonate so HCl decomposes the carbonate with bubbles of carbon dioxide gas. CaCO3 + 2HCl ------> CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O


Which mineral bubbles when it comes in contact with hydrochloric acid?

Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) , which goes by the mineral names of marble, limestone, or chalk. The reaction scheme is Hydrochloric Acid + Calcium Carbonate forms Calcium chloride , water and carbon dioxide ( which effervesces (bubbles)). The reaction equation is 2HCl(aq) + CaCO3(s) = CaCl2(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)


What mass of carbon dioxide will be produced?

Full question: Ordinary chalkboard chalk is a solid mixture with limestone (calcium carbonate) and gypsum (calcium sulfate) as its principal ingredients. The limestone dissolves in dilute hydrochloric acid, producing calcium chloride, carbon dioxide, and water. 1.) Gypsum does not react with HCl. If a 5.05g piece of chalk that is 72.0% calcium carbonate is dissolved in excess HCl, what mass of carbon dioxide will be produced? 2.) Determine the mass percent of calcium carbonate in a 4.38g piece of chalk that yields 1.31g carbon dioxide when it reacts with excess HCl?

Why chalk does not react with HCl?

Chalk and HCl do react together. When reacting, they release carbon dioxide..


Which gas is given off when hydrochloric acid is poured on chalk?

I assume you mean calcium carbonate, calcite.CaCO3 + 2HCl --> CaCl2 + CO2 + H2OThat 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.


Is gas produced when you add acid to chalk?

Yes. Chalk is calcium carbonate. When an acid is added, carbon dioxide gas is produced.


What is the process of turning carbon dioxide into chalk and limestone called?

burial and rock formation


Which common minerals fizzes when dilute hydrochloric acid HCI is placed on it?

Calcite, Limestone, Chalk, Marble. They are all geological forms of calcium carbonate.


Will citric acid dissolve chalk?

Yes.
