The limstone cycle:

1. Limstone (CaCO3) - Heat limestone to produce quicklime

2. Quicklime (CaO) - Add a few drops of water to produce slaked lime

3. Slake lime (Ca(OH)2(s)) - Add excess water to produce Limewater

4. Limewater (Ca(OH)3(aq) ) - Bubble CO2 gas into limewater to produce limestone

This is called a cycle because it happens again and again...
