Yes. Calcium carbonate is a salt and is formed from calcium reacting with carbonic acid. The salts of weak acids function as buffers. Carbonic acid is a weak acid.

What is the buffer for calcium hydroxide?

A buffer for calcium hydroxide typically consists of a weak acid and its conjugate base, or a weak base and its conjugate acid, that can help maintain a stable pH in the presence of added acids or bases. For calcium hydroxide, which is a strong base, a common buffering system might include calcium carbonate and calcium bicarbonate. This combination can moderate changes in pH by reacting with added acids. Overall, the buffer helps to stabilize the pH around neutral levels, despite the strong basicity of calcium hydroxide.
