Answer: See below
Explanation:
1. a) 0.15 moles calcium carbonate (15g/100g/mole)
b) 0.15 moles CaO (molar ratio of CaO to CaCO3 is 1:1)
c) 8.4 grams CaO (0.15 moles)*(56 grams/mole)
2. a) 0.274 moles Na2O (17g/62 grams/mole)
b) 46.6 grams NaNO3 (2 moles NaNO3/1 mole Na2O)*(0.274 moles Na2O)*(85 g/mole NaNO3)

The NO3 part is a poly-atomic ion with total charge -1.
This is because Fe has a +2 charge and two NO3's with a -1 charge will balance out to 0.
Most often we just make the assumption that Oxygen has a -2 oxidation number because it is very electro-negative.
So to find N, we just need an oxidation number that balances out with 3(-2) to get -1 (the total charge of the ion)</span>
