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.
So the equation of the reaction between calcium carbonate and HCl is:
CaCO3+2HCl =CaCl2+2H2O+CO2
This reaction is also known as double decomposition reaction.
