32. A chemical reaction in which calcium carbonate CaCO3 is decomposed, results in the production of two simpler compounds.
CaCO3
>CaO
+
CO2
? 9
28.00 g
21.97 g
What mass of calcium carbonate, to the nearest hundredth of a gram, is
decomposed in this reaction?

Mass of calcium carbonate decompose 49g.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CaO = 28.00 g

Mass of CO₂ = 21.97 g

Mass of calcium carbonate decompose = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

CaCO₃     →    CO₂ + CaO

Number of moles of  CO₂:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 21.97 g / 44 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.49 mol

Number of moles of  CaO:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 28.00 g / 56.1 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.49 mol

Now we will compare the moles of CaCO₃ with CaO and CO₂ .

                                CO₂                 :           CaCO₃

                                   1                    :             1

                                 0.49                :            0.49

                                 CaO                :           CaCO₃  

                                    1                    :             1

                                  0.49                :            0.49

Mass of CaCO₃ decompose:

Mass = number of moles × molaer mass

Mass = 0.49 mol × 100.1 g/mol

Mass = 49 g
