Step 1. - Scientists first take a look at their empirical evidence and try to explain it.
Step 2. - Scientists test if their explanation or conclusion is logical.
Step 3. - If their explanation is logical, they search for new test that may help them to support their first idea.

The mass of magnesium should be less than 0.09g to enable a faster reaction rate. Magnesium reacts to form a white coating around it which stops the reaction. The lesser the gram the faster the reaction before the coating is formed. It is also advisable to use magnesium fillings to increase the rate of reaction.
Answer is: <span>mass of calcium carbonate needed is 120 grams.
</span>Chemical reaction:
CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g)<span>.
</span>V(CO₂) = 27.0 L.
Vm = 22.4 L/mol.
n(CO₂) = V(CO₂) ÷ Vm.
n(CO₂) = 27 L ÷ 22.4 L/mol.
n(CO₂) = 1.2 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(CO₂) : n(CaCO₃) = 1 : 1.
m(CaCO₃) = 1.2 mol.
m(CaCO₃) = n(CaCO₃) · M(CaCO₃).
m(CaCO₃) = 1.2 mol · 100 g/mol.
m(CaCO₃) = 120 g.
