The reaction of acid, assuming HCl and calcium carbonate always produces a gas. The reaction is as follows:
2 HCl + CaCO3 --> CaCl2 + H2CO3
H2CO3, carbonic acid, is a weak acid that is unstable in water solutions at high concentrations. As such, it decomposes:
H2CO3 --> H2O + CO2
Then,
2 HCl + CaCO3 --> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2
The total ionic equation looks as follows:
2H+(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) + CaCO3(s) --> Ca+2(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)
Clearly, Cl- is a spectator ion as it is unchanged in the reaction. The net ionic reaction looks as follows:
2 H+(aq) + CaCO3(s) --> Ca+2(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)
I think that the answer is 1/8 Hope this helps!!!! :D
Answer: n=15.56moles
Explanation:
PV = nRT
where
P is pressure in atmospheres
V is volume in Liters
n is the number of moles of the gas
R is the ideal gas constant = given as (0.0821L -atm/k-mol
PV = nRT
n= PV/RT
n= (1.5 X 230)/ (0.0821 X 270)
n= 15.56 moles
