2Ca + O2 = 2CaO
First, determine which is the excess reactant
72.5 g Ca (1 mol) =1.8089725036
(40.078 g)

65 g O2 (1 mol) =2.0313769611
(15.999g × 2)
Since the ratio of to O2 is 2:1 in the balanced reaction, divide Ca's molar mass by 2 to get 0.9044862518. this isn't necessary because Ca is already obviously the limiting reactant. therefore, O2 is the excess reactant.

Now do the stoichiometry
72.5 g Ca (1 mol Ca) (1 mol O2)
(40.078 g Ca)(2 mol Ca)(31.998g O2)

=0.0282669621 g of O2 left over

A compound is broken down by chemical means during
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer : Option 3) Electrolysis.


Explanation : In the process of electrolysis, decomposition of the chemical is done by passing the electric current from the liquid or the solution containing ions in it. This is the process where compound is broken into ions namely, cations and anions.


Rest all options does not involves chemical decomposition of the compound.


Chromatography is a technique where rates of solute and solvent are compared in a medium where the solute components move at different rates and the separation is obtained.


Distillation simply purifies the liquid or solution by heating or cooling process.


Filtration just involves removal of impurities by using a more porous material device to get purified compound.
