Calcium oxide and oxygen gas are produced by the thermal decomposition of limestone in the reaction CaCO (s) CaO(s) + CO (g). Wh
at mass of lime can be produced from 4.5 10 kg of limestone? Please show all the work
2 answers:
The mass of lime that can be produced from 4.510 Kg of limestone is calculated as below
calculate the moles of CaCO3 used
that is moles =mass/molar mass
convert Kg to g = 4.510 x1000 =4510g
= 4510 / 100 =45.10 moles
CaCO3 = CaO +O2
by use of mole ratio between CaCO3 to CaO (1:1) the moles of CaO is also= 45.10 moles
mass of CaO = moles x molar mass
45.10 x56 = 2525.6 g of CaO
As the power on mass of CaCO₃ is not given so we are assuming it 4.5 × 10³ Kg.
Answer:
2520 Kg of CaO
Solution:
The balance chemical equation is as follow,
CaCO₃ → CaO + CO₂
According to equation,
0.1 Kg (1 mole) CaCO₃ produces = 0.056 Kg (1 mole) of CaO
So,
4.5 × 10³ Kg CaCO₃ will produce = X Kg of CaO
Solving for X,
X = (4.5 × 10³ Kg × 0.056 Kg) ÷ 0.1 Kg
X = 2520 Kg of CaO
