How does rainwater make limestone wear away more quickly?

Rainwater is slightly acidic due to the presence of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. When rainwater comes in contact with limestone, it reacts with the calcium carbonate in the rock, causing it to dissolve and wear away more rapidly through a process called chemical weathering. Over time, this can lead to the formation of sinkholes and caves in limestone landscapes.
