The reaction between calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid can be expressed through the chemical reaction,
CaCO3 + 2HCl --> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2
The molecular weight of calcium carbonate is 100 g/mol while that of hydrochloric acid is 36.45. The equation above depicts that 100 g of calcium carbonate can be dissolved in 72.9 g of hydrochloric acid.
x = (4 g HCl)(100 g CaCO3 / 72.9 HCl)
x = 5.49 g
Answer: 5.49 g
Answer:
Atoms of each element contain a characteristic number of protons and electrons. The number of protons determines an element's atomic number and is used to distinguish one element from another.
Answer:
4Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Chemistry - Reactions</u>
Explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
RxN: Fe + O₂ → Fe₂O₃
<u>Step 2: Balance</u>
We need to balance both Fe and O.
LCM of 2 and 3 is 6:
Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃
We now need the same amount of Fe on both sides:
4Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃
