The test for limestone

You can check the rock samples to see if any are limestone by dropping lemon juice, vinegar or some other dilute acid on them. If any are limestone they will effervesce or bubble where the acid is placed on them. The bubbling is happen by carbon dioxide gas which is given off by limestone when in contact with acid. Marble, a metamorphic rock formed from limestone, will also respond to this test.
