Answer:
% Ca = 24.69%
% H = 1.2%
% C = 14.8%
% O = 59.25%
Explanation:
The percentage by mass of each element can be calculated by dividing the mass of each element in the compound by the molar mass of the compound.
Molar mass of Ca(HCO3)2
Where; (Ca= 40, H = 1, O = 16, C= 12)
= 40 + {1 + 12 + 16(3)}2
= 40 + {13 + 48}2
= 40 + {61}2
= 40 + 122
= 162g/mol
- % mass of Ca = 40/162 × 100
= 0.2469 × 100
= 24.69%
- % mass of H = 2/162 × 100
= 0.012 × 100
= 1.2%
- % mass of C = 24/162 × 100
= 0.148 × 100
= 14.8%
- % mass of O = 96/162 × 100
= 0.5925 × 100
= 59.25%

Combustion reaction
Key: O2
O2 is normally in a chemical formula when you are used to burn anything, so basically, anything with O2 involves burning.
In the combustion process using excess oxygen, each mole of methane results to 1 mole of co2 while ethane produces 2 moles of Co2. Under same conditions, these can be translated to volume. Hence the total volume absorbed is 10 cm3 + 20 cm3 = 30 cm3.
