An experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of acid on limestone (calcium carbonate), Aconical flask containing dilute nitric acid was placed on a balance. Lumps of caleium carbonatewere added to the dilute nitric acid and a loose cotton wool plug was quicklyplaced in the neck ofthe conical flask.
The chemical reaction between calcium carbonate and dilute nitric acid produced calcium nihate,water and carbon dioxide gas which escape into the air. The conical flask and its contents wereweighed at regular intervals and the results wers recorded in a table.
