It is extracted by electrolysis, which is an expensive method.</p><p>Discussion (page 71) Advantages • A new road is built for delivering the limestone. This also improves the transportation of the town. • The company provides jobs for local people. • There would be tax income for the town. • There is a new village hall built by big donations from the company. • The availability of limestone may lead to the development of other industries and hence the prosperity of the town. Disadvantages • The rock dug from the ground becomes waste. This causes pollution problems. • The blasting and the heavy traffic cause sound pollution. • Consumption of energy may lead to greenhouse effect.</p><p>Checkpoint (page 72) 1 a) Calcium hydroxide b) i) Heating calcium carbonate ii) Adding dilute hydrochloric acid to calcium carbonate iii) Adding water to calcium oxide</p><p>2 a) Use flame test. Both compounds give a brick-red flame. b) Add dilute hydrochloric acid to both compounds. Effervescence occurs for calcium carbonate. </p><p>Suggested answers to in-text activities and unit-end exercises 1 © Jing Kung. All rights reserved.

Higher pressure and heat cause the chalk to turn into much harder limestone. The limestone deposit may stay below the Earth for a long time. Higher temperature and pressure may turn the limestone into marble.</p><p>12 a) i) Carbon dioxide ii) The gas turns limewater milky. b) i) Add water to calcium oxide. ii) calcium oxide + water  calcium hydroxide c) i) Add dilute hydrochloric acid to calcium carbonate. ii) Effervescence occurs. / Calcium carbonate dissolves in the dilute acid. iii) calcium carbonate + dilute hydrochloric acid  calcium chloride + water + carbon dioxide</p><p>13 a) Process 1 – filtration Process 2 – distillation b) Process 1 </p><p>Suggested answers to in-text activities and unit-end exercises 4 © Jing Kung.

A sample containing calcium will give a brick-red flame. Add dilute hydrochloric acid to the sample. A carbonate reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid to give carbon dioxide gas. The gas will turn limewater milky. The carbon dioxide gas can also be tested with a hydrogen carbonate indicator (which will change from red to yellow).</p><p>Suggested answers to in-text activities and unit-end exercises 5 © Jing Kung.
