As lime dissolves in the soil, calcium (Ca) moves to the surface of soil particles, replacing the acidity. The acidity reacts with the carbonate (CO 3) to form carbon dioxide (CO 2) and water (H 2 O). The result is a soil that is less acidic (has a higher pH).
The Japanese began to colonize the Philippines because they were  running out of space and resources. Their country is four big  islands that were recently formed by volcano â¦ es, meaning that they  have limited mineral and metal resources.
Spanish colonization began with the arrival of Miguel LÃ³pez de Legazpi's expedition on February 13, 1565 from Mexico. He established the first permanent settlement in Cebu. Much of the archipelago came under Spanish rule, creating the first unified political structure known as the Philippines.
