Answer: 2800 g

Explanation:

CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g)

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Given mass = 5 kg = 5000 g

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{5000g}{100g/mol}=50moles

1 mole of CaCO_3 produces = 1 mole of CaO

50 moles of CaCO_3 produces =\frac{1}{1}\times 50=50moles of CaO

Mass of CaO=moles\times {\text{Molar mass}}=50moles\times 56g/mole=2800g

2800 g of CaO is produced from 5.0 kg of limestone.

What's an element in period 5 with larger radius than Yttrium?
eimsori [14]
Rubidium or strontium have larger a larger atomic radius since the further left on the periodic table you go, the larger the sizes of the atoms are.  This trend can be explained through effective nuclear charge which explains how the further left and down you go, the less the atoms nucleus is able to pull in the electrons around it.<span />

Write the complete balanced equation for the reaction between CaCO3 and KCI
EleoNora [17]

CaCO3 + 2KCL ⇒ CaCl2 + K2CO3

It is balanced as so based on the charges given on the periodic table and polyatomic ions.

Calcium has the charge of 2 but CO3 also shares the same charge, thus cancelling that out.

Potassium has a charge of 1 while Chlorine also shares a charge of 1, also cancelling it out.

Thus, if it performs a double replacement reaction, they would take these charges to the new elements that do not cancel out their charges.

Therefore, we need the coefficient of 2 in front of Potassium Chloride in order to balance the equation as on the products side of the equation, Potassium and Chlorine both have a subscript of 2.

Hope this helps!

n an experiment, 39.26 mL of 0.1062 M NaOH solution was required to titrate 37.54 mL of \ v unknown acetic acid solution to a ph
olasank [31]

Answer:

Molarity: 0.111M

% (w/w): 0.666

Explanation:

The reaction of NaOH with acetic acid (CH₃COOH) is:

NaOH + CH₃COOH → CH₃COO⁻Na⁺ + H₂O

<em>where 1 mole of NaOH reacts per mole of acetic acid producing 1 mole of water and 1 mole of sodium acetate.</em>

As 39.26mL ≡ 0.03926L of 0.1062M are required to titrate the solution of acetic acid. Moles are:

0.03926L × (0.1062mol / L) = 4.169x10⁻³ moles of NaOH. As 1 mole of NaOH reacts per mole of acetic acid:

4.169x10⁻³ moles of CH₃COOH.

Molarity is defined as ratio between moles of substance and volume of solution in liters. Thus, molarity of acetic acid solution is:

4.169x10⁻³ moles of CH₃COOH / 0.03754L = <em>0.111M</em>

<em></em>

As molar mass of acetic acid is 60g/mol, 4.169x10⁻³ moles weights:

4.169x10⁻³ moles × (60g / mol) = <em>0.2501 g of acetic acid</em>

Now, assuming density of solution as 1.00g/mL, 37.54mL weights <em>37.54g</em>.

Thus, percent by weight is:

0.2501g CH₃COOH / 37.54g × 100 = <em>0.666% (w/w)</em>
