Answer: See below
Explanation:
1. a) 0.15 moles calcium carbonate (15g/100g/mole)
b) 0.15 moles CaO (molar ratio of CaO to CaCO3 is 1:1)
c) 8.4 grams CaO (0.15 moles)*(56 grams/mole)
2. a) 0.274 moles Na2O (17g/62 grams/mole)
b) 46.6 grams NaNO3 (2 moles NaNO3/1 mole Na2O)*(0.274 moles Na2O)*(85 g/mole NaNO3)
Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium....etc have two valence electrons
use a mortar & pestle to grind the solute into smaller particles, thus increasing the surface area.
