Explanation:
Many caves occur when water chemically erodes the limestone. If a lake has a low or acidic ph, crushed limestone will react to neutralize it directly. For example, when reacting with sulfuric acid, it forms calcium sulfate (CaSO4) plus H2CO3. The calcium sulfate is soluble in water and the limestone dissolves.
