What is the rock that forms when sand particles bits of soil and the remains of living things harden?
Limestone
What causes limestone to harden with age?
Limestone hardens with age through a process called diagenesis, where pressure, temperature, and fluids cause the original minerals to recrystallize, compact, and bind together more tightly. Additionally, the deposition of new minerals like calcite can further cement the limestone over time, increasing its strength and durability.

False. Limestone is formed from the accumulation of marine organisms such as seashells, coral, and algae, which compress and harden over time to create a sedimentary rock.
How is limestone used in cement?
Limestone is a key ingredient in cement production as it provides the calcium component needed to form the mineral phases during the kiln process. When limestone is heated in a kiln with other materials, such as clay, it reacts to form compounds that harden into the final cement product.
What is the present tense of harden?
