<u>Step 1: Define</u>
[RxN - Balanced] Na₂CO₃ (aq) + CaCl₂ (aq) → CaCO₃ (s) + 2NaCl (aq)
[Given] 0.5 g Na₂CO₃ reacted with excess CaCl₂
<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>
[RxN] Na₂CO₃ → 2NaCl
Molar Mass of Na - 22.99 g/mol
Molar Mass of C - 12.01 g/mol
Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol
Molar Mass of Cl - 35.45 g/mol
Molar Mass of Na₂CO₃ - 2(22.99) + 12.01 + 3(16.00) = 105.99 g/mol
Molar Mass of NaCl - 22.99 + 35.45 = 58.44 g/mol
<u>Step 3: Stoichiometry</u>
- Set up:
