How does the limestone cycle work?

Starts off as Calcium Carbonate , when heated the calcium carbonate becomes Calcium Oxide + Carbon Dioxide, the Calcium Oxide then reacts with water to produce Calcium Hydroxide and then when more water is added then filtered it becomes Calcium Hydroxide Solution, C02 is then added to form Calcium Carbonate again [:

Why ammonium oxalate is added in calcium carbonate solution?

Calcium carbonate is rather INsoluble, so there is no solution of it. I do not know why ammonium oxalate is added to a calcium carbonate solution. Calcium oxalate will then precipitate out of the solution. The ammonium and carbonate will create a weakly bond compound. Actually, more of the ammonium ion will be in solution as free ammonia and more of the carbonate ions will be in solution as free carbon dioxide. That is the nature of those two substances. So, you will have a solution that has a calcium oxalate precipitant on the bottom and is slowly giving off ammonia and carbon dioxide.
