When calcium carbonate is heated, it produces calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. The equation for the reaction is CaCO3(s) CaO(s) CO2(g). How many grams of calcium carbonate (molar mass = 100 g/mol) need to decompose to produce 44.5 g of Calcium oxide.

Answer: 79.5 grams

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP, contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles and weighs equal to the molecular mass of the substance.

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

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of CaO is produced by 1 mole of CaCO_3

That means 56 g of CaO is produced by 100 g of CaCO_3

Thus 44.5  g of CaO is produced by =\frac{100}{56}\times 44.5=79.5g of CaCO_3

Thus 79.5 g of CaCO_3 need to decompose to produce 44.5 g of Calcium oxide.

The number of positive changes in the nucleus of an atom is equal to
raketka [301]

Answer:

The number of positive charges in nucleus of an atoms are equal to the atomic number and also positive charges are equal to the negative charges which are electrons in neutral atom.

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

Electron:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e⁻

Mass= 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

Neutron and proton:

Neutron and proton are present inside the nucleus. Proton has positive charge while neutron is electrically neutral. Proton is discovered by Rutherford while neutron is discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

Symbol of proton= P⁺

Symbol of neutron= n⁰

Mass of proton=1.672623×10⁻²⁷ Kg

Mass of neutron=1.674929×10⁻²⁷ Kg

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

For example

The carbon have six protons and six neutrons so its atomic mass is 12 amu and atomic number is six.

What was the weight percent of water in the hydrate before heating?
DedPeter [7]
Data:

weight of water before heating = 0.349

weight of hydrate before heateing = 2.107

Formula:

Weight percent of water = [ (weight of water) / (weight of the hydrate) ] * 100

Solution:

Weight percent of water = [ 0.349 / 2.107] * 100 ≈ 16.6 %

Answer: 16.6%

In each of the following blanks, only enter a numerical value.
tatiyna

Answer:

1) 1,... 2

2) 18

3) n= 3 and I=1

Explanation:

1) when l= 0, its an s-sub-level, and only 1 orbital is possible which can carry only 2-electrons

2) the maximum number of electron is given by 2n^2= 2×3^2= 18

3) in 3p, the coefficient of p is the value of n= 3 and l-value of P is 1
