Nope....

Explanation:

$Calcium carbonate$ $"Calcium carbonate"$ is soluble in water to the extent of $13 \cdot ppm$ $13*"ppm"$ in water, i.e. $0.013 \cdot g \cdot L^{- 1}$ $0.013*g*L^-1$ ...clearly in acidic solution, the carbonate will be decomposed to carbon dioxide and soluble calcium chloride...

$C a C O_{3} (s) + 2 H C l (a q) \to C a C l_{2} (s) + H_{2} O (l) + C O_{2} (g) ↑ ⏐$ $CaCO_3(s) + 2HCl(aq) rarr CaCl_2(s)+H_2O(l) + CO_2(g)uarr$
