Why does chalk dissolve in lemon juice?

Lemon juice contains citric acid. Citric acid is a weak acid that has the chemical formula of C6H8O7. It reacts with chalk, which consists of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Whenever an acid reacts with a base, a salt and water are formed. Salts can dissolve in water (they are aqueous). Therefore, when chalk reacts with lemon juice, water and aqueous sodium citrate are formed. The sodium citrate dissolves into the water.


Does Chalk Dissolve in Lemon Juice Vinegar or Water first?

Chalk dissolves first in vinegar, followed by lemon juice, and lastly in water. This is because vinegar is acidic and reacts with the calcium carbonate in chalk to form a soluble calcium salt. Lemon juice, also acidic but less so than vinegar, dissolves chalk at a slower rate. Water alone does not chemically interact with chalk to dissolve it.
