One source of alkalinity is calcium carbonate (CaCO 3), which is dissolved in water flowing through geology that has limestone and/or marble. Limestone is a sedimentary rock formed by the compaction of fossilized coral, shells and bones.he ability to resist changes in pH by neutralizing acids or bases is called buffering. Alkalinity is important to aquatic organisms because it protects them against rapid changes in pH. Alkalinity is especially important in areas where acid rain is a problem.
Chalk /ËtÊÉËk/ is a soft, white, porous sedimentary carbonate rock, a form of limestone composed of the mineral calcite. Calcite is calcium carbonate or CaCO 3.It forms under reasonably deep marine conditions from the gradual accumulation of minute calcite shells (coccoliths) shed from micro-organisms called coccolithophores.alcite is calcium carbonate or CaCO 3.
