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

frez [133]

The accepted concentration of chlorine is 1.00 ppm that is 1 gram of chlorine per million of water.

The volume of water is 2.29\times 10^{4} gal.

Since, 1 gal= 3785.41 mL

Thus, 2.29\times 10^{4} gal=2.29\times 10^{4}\times 3785.41 mL=8.66\times 10^{7}mL

Density of water is 1 g/mL thus, mass of water will be 8.66\times 10^{7}g.

Since, 1 grams of chlorine →10^{6} grams of water.

1 g of water →10^{-6} g of chlorine and,

8.66\times 10^{7}g of water →86.6 g of chlorine

Since, the solution is 9% chlorine by mass, the volume of solution will be:

V=\frac{100}{9}\times 86.6 mL=9.62\times 10^{2} mL

Thus, volume of chlorine solution is 9.62\times 10^{2} mL.

1. Which of the following is NOT a cation?
Bezzdna [24]
Hey Madoudou


The correct answer is option B (sulfate)


The reason is because "Sulfate" has a negative sign.

In order for it to be a cation, it must have positive sign such as "iron(lll)ion


I hope this helps~
