Limestone is mainly made up of calcium carbonate, CaCO3. When it is heated, it breaks down to form calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. Calcium oxide reacts with water to produce calcium hydroxide. But if u wanna know how it is formed? It's formed by erosion and weathering which is a type of 'Sedimentary Rock'. Erosion and weathering, carried rocks and end up at the sea or ocean. Which is the end way to go! At there, rocks combined by adding more and more just under the sea. The combination of rocks made it harden. First, it was just small little eroded particles end up at the sea. But at last, it became a very hard rock which isn't easy to break!

Murrr4er [49]

Answer: The actual reaction to make water is a bit more complicated: 2H2 + O2 = 2H2O + Energy. In English, the equation says: To produce two molecules of water (H2O), two molecules of diatomic hydrogen (H2) must be combined with one molecule of diatomic oxygen (O2). Energy will be released in the process.

When substances react chemically to create a new substance, will that new substance have the same physical and chemical properti
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

When a chemical reaction occur, new substances are formed. The physical and chemical properties of new substances are different from initial substance.

Explanation:

Chemical change:

The changes, that occur due to change in the composition of a substance and result in a different compound is known as chemical change.

These changes are irreversible.

These changes occur due to chemical reactions.

These may not be observed with naked eye.

Examples:

Combustion of fuel or wood: that oil or wood convert into energy, CO2 and ash in case of wood .

Boiling of egg: that change the chemical composition of protein in the egg.

Physical change:

The changes that occur only due to change in shape or form but their chemical or internal composition remain unchanged.

These changes were reversible.

They have same chemical property.

These changes can be observed with naked eye.

Examples:

Water converting to Ice.

Water converting to gas.

In this water molecule remain the same only they rearrange themselves that change its state of mater not composition.
