Answer : The mass of calcium oxide produced is, 2632 g

Solution : Given,

Mass of calcium carbonate = 4.7 Kg = 4700 g      (1 Kg = 1000 g)

Molar mass of calcium carbonate = 100 g/mole

Molar mass of calcium oxide = 56 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of calcium carbonate.

\text{Moles of }CaCO_3=\frac{\text{Mass of }CaCO_3}{\text{Molar mass of }CaCO_3}=\frac{4700g}{100g/mole}=47moles

Now we have to calculate the moles of calcium oxide.

The balanced decomposition reaction will be,

CaCO_3\rightarrow CaO+CO_2

From the balanced reaction we conclude that,

As, 1 mole of calcium carbonate decompose to give 1 mole of calcium oxide

So, 47 moles of calcium carbonate decompose to give 47 moles of calcium oxide

Now we have to calculate the mass of calcium oxide.

\text{Mass of }CaO=\text{Moles of }CaO\times \text{Molar mass of }CaO

\text{Mass of }CaO=(47moles)\times (56g/mole)=2632g

Therefore, the mass of calcium oxide produced is, 2632 g

This may help you

First write and balance the equation, being: CaCO3 - CaO + CO2 Then, using the periodic table, find the molecular masses of CaCO3 and of CaO, finding their ratio. That will be 100g:56g or 0.1kg:0.056kg. Since you have 4.7kg of CaCO3, it corresponds to Xkg of CaO. Making x the subject, it should be X= 4.7*0.056/100=0,002632

What process produces the sediments that ultimately lead to soil formation
Vikentia [17]
The process by which rocks are broken down to form soil is called weathering. It is divided into 3 types, physical, chemical and biological weathering.
Physical weathering is the process by which rocks are broken down as a result of physical agitations. It is also called mechanical weathering and during this process the chemical nature of the rock is not affected. Biological weathering has to do with the weakening of rocks and their eventual disintegration as a result of plants and animals activities. Chemical weathering refers to the disintegration of the rock particles as a result of chemical reactions.
