Stalactites-The Long, Icicle-Like Formations That Hang from the Ceilings of Caves-Are

Stalactites-the long, icicle-like formations that hang from the ceilings of caves-are formed from recrystallizing minerals like calcite (calcium carbonate) . The K_sp of calcium carbonate is 4.5 *10^-9.

B) 1.5 *10⁵ L
C) 4.5* 10⁹ L
D) 4.5 *10⁴ L
