Begin by writing out the reaction.

HCl + CaCO3  →  CaCl2  +  CO2  + H2O

balance the atoms

2HCl + CaCO3  →  CaCl2  +  CO2  + H2O

since CaCO3 is the limiting reagent we must calculate the number of moles of it present.

We do this by dividing the mass of CaCO3 by its molecular mass.

15 / 100 = 0.15 moles.

since the ratio of CaCO3 to CO2 in the reaction above is 1:1.

Then 0.15 moles of CaCO3 can produce a maximum of 0.15 moles of CO2.

To find the mass of 0.15 moles of CO2 we multiply 0.15 by the molecular mass of CO2. 

0.15 x <span>44 = 6.6g </span>

How is the hardness range for a mineral determined?
Setler79 [48]
As common sense dictates, Mohs Scale is based on the fact that a harder material will scratch a softer one. By using a simple scratch test, you can determine the relative hardness of an unknown mineral.

Why Mg ion +2 is smaller than Mg ion ​+1 ?
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Rise in charge reduced the size due to rise in attraction between electron and nucleus.

Explanation:

Ion of magnesium is smaller than the atom of magnesium. As the nuclear charge increases, the attraction of electron to the nucleus increases in charged ions form of any element. Due to this increase in charge of magnesium ion,  the size of ion reduces

No. of electrons in Mg = 12

No. of proton in Mg = 12

Where as

No. of electrons in Mg2+ = 12

No. of proton in Mg2+ = 10

Pam observed many small earthworms in the backyard of her house after a heavy rain. What most likely formed the earthworms?
AlekseyPX

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When it rains, then mud in the backyards become wet. It is known that earthworms live inside earth and diffusion of oxygen gets slower through water than through air.

As a result, supply of oxygen to the worms decreases in wet mud hence, they come to the surface in order to breathe.

Thus, we can conclude that wet mud in the backyard most likely formed the earthworms.
