What Is The Limestone Cycle?

The video tutorial explains the limestone cycle, starting with the reaction of lime water turning milky due to calcium carbonate formation. It covers the formation of limestone from marine organisms, its uses, and the thermal decomposition process in a rotary kiln to produce quick lime and carbon dioxide. The cycle continues with the reaction of quick lime with water to form slaked lime, which dissolves to create lime water. The cycle completes when lime water reacts with carbon dioxide to form calcium carbonate again. The tutorial emphasizes the chemical processes and real-life applications of limestone.
