What is the chemical equation for limestone?

Answer 1

haven't got a clue, i looked this up for my science coursework, but there was nothing! which was really unhelpful :( HELPP! x

same here matey :( idont now poop either ;/ not good isi what we gunna do arghhhhhh im a piarate :L:L:L:L howa you then? wanna be friends? x

Limestone is broken down by a thermal decomposition into Quicklime :)

Limestone is the same as Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3). When Calcium Carbonate is heated, it breaks down into Calcium Oxide (CaO) and Carbon Dioxide (C02). This is thermal decomposition.

Hope this helped. :)

Answer 2

The chemical formula for limestone is CaCO3. When limestone is heated, it decomposes to form calcium oxide (CaO) and carbon dioxide (CO2). This reaction can be represented as: CaCO3(s) → CaO(s) + CO2(g)

Answer 3

calcium carbonate --> calcium oxide --> calcium hydroxide --> calcium hydroxide solution

Answer 4

CaCO3 + heat ----> CaO + CO2

Calcium Carbonate (limestone) + heat ----> Calcium Oxide + Carbon dioxide

Answer 5

CaCO3(s) -> CaO(s) + CO2(g)

Answer 6

. CaCo3 + HEAT ---> CaO + Co2

Answer 7

CaCO3 --heat--> CaO + CO2

Answer 8

CaCO2
