Question:

Would you expect that dolomite does or does not react to hydrochloric acid?

Explain and make it simple please

Answer:

it does react to hydrochloric acid like all carbonte rocks, it rects with HCl
It will react, however the speed of reaction increases drastically if the HCl is heated and increases with the strength of the acid. 10% acid will not react (react quickly) however 15% acid will and heated 10% will react strongly.
