Limestone is calcium carbonate (CaCO3) which when heated to above 840°C decomposes into calcium oxide (CaO) while releasing carbon dioxide (CO2) according to the equation: CaCO3 → CaO + CO2
pressure, heat, time
When limestone is exposed to intense heat and pressure, it metamorphoses into a rock called marble. Marble is a metamorphic rock that forms when the calcite crystals in limestone recrystallize and interlock.
the limestone gets crush into tiny particle and joins the othe marterials
You will get marble, a metamorphic rock, from limestone. Marble forms when limestone is subjected to heat and pressure, causing it to recrystallize and change in mineral composition.
Quicklime is created from limestone through a process called calcination. The chemical equation for this process is: CaCO3 (limestone) -> CaO (quicklime) + CO2 (carbon dioxide). It involves heating limestone to high temperatures, around 900-1000°C, to drive off the carbon dioxide and produce quicklime.
It could recrystallize and form marble, under specific conditions of heat and pressure.
Limestone was probably metamorphed into marble.
Limestone/chalk. Limestone has been subjected to heat and/or pressure, it metamorposes into marble. Both limestone and marble are calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Its just that the internal physical structure of limestone is altered.
Carbon Dioxide
No. Marble is metamorphosed limestone, recrystallized from heat, pressure, or both.
No. Limestone changes to Marble when it undergoes intense heat and pressure.
Limestone typically turns into marble when subjected to heat and pressure. Marble is a metamorphic rock with a finer texture and often exhibits a wider range of colors than limestone.

the heat from a fire actually morphs the limestone into a different kind of rock
When limestone is exposed to intense heat and pressure, it metamorphoses into a rock called marble. Marble is a metamorphic rock that forms when the calcite crystals in limestone recrystallize and interlock.
