  • Scientists test natural rock to see if it is limestone by pouring cold diluted hydrochloric or sulfuric acid (10% solution or vinegar) on it. 
  • It gives off bubbles of carbon dioxide. Limestone is used as Industrial Raw Materials with other industrial raw material products such as Silica Flour, Aggregate, Quicklime, Talc, Volcanic Rock, Abrasives, and Calcium Carbonate. 
  • The limestone and CaCO3 are the same material, but, we use them in different ways. 
  • The first is used as aggregate in the construction industry or as a ‘flux’ (used for removing chemical impurities) in the iron and steel industry, while the second is used in the chemical and manufacturing industries.
