The purpose of this experiment was to identify the results of chemical weathering on limestone. Limestone is the most abundant of the non-clastic sedimentary rocks. Limestone is produced from the mineral calcite, (calcium carbonate) which came from the beds of evaporated seas and lakes and from sea animal shells. (Sediment is also included!) Limestone can easily be dissolved by acids. If you drop vinegar on limestone it will fizz, as proven in this experiment. We need some more info, so any would be very helpful.
