Hydrochloric acid reacts with calcium carbonate to form calcium chloride, carbon dioxide and water.
When hydrochloric acid reacts with any carbonates/hydrogen carbonates the products formed are metal chloride , water and carbon dioxide. Since HCl decomposes salts of weaker acids. This reaction is also known as double decomposition reaction.
