Usually with the common construction material: marble, limestone, and concrete (CaCO3). The reaction is as follows:

CaCO3 + H2O --> H2CO3 + CaO

Which wears away the stone.

What is formed when groundwater mixes with carbon dioxide from air?

When groundwater mixes with carbon dioxide from the air, it forms carbonic acid. This weak acid can dissolve minerals in the ground and lead to the formation of underground caves, sinkholes, and other karst landscapes over long periods of time.


What mixes with water in the blood to form carbonic acid?

Carbon dioxide mixes with water in the blood to form carbonic acid through the action of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase. This reaction helps regulate the pH balance in the blood by maintaining the proper levels of carbonic acid.

What does groundwater naturally contain that allows it to dissolve limestone and form caverns?

Groundwater naturally contains carbonic acid, which forms when carbon dioxide dissolves in water. This carbonic acid reacts with the calcium carbonate in limestone, leading to dissolution and the formation of caverns over time.

When CO2 mixes with water, ____ is formed. This acid increases ___ ions in the water, which the bind to ____ (used by some marine life to make shells) to form?

When CO2 mixes with water, carbonic acid is formed, the axis then increases positive ions, which then bind with calcium to form calcium carbonate.


What acid is most commonly present in groundwater?

Probably carbonic acid, which is formed when carbon dioxide dissolves in water. There are other acids that can be found in nature, but the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is far higher than the concentration of (for example) nitrogen or sulfur oxides, which can also form acids when dissolved in water.
