1) Calcium carbonate contains 40.0% calcium by weight.
M(CaCO₃)=100.1 g/mol
M(Ca)=40.1 g/mol
w(Ca)=40.1/100.1=0.400 (40.0%)!
2) Mass fraction of this is excessive data.
3) The solution is:
m(Ca)=1.2 g
m(CaCO₃)=M(CaCO₃)*m(Ca)/M(Ca)
m(CaCO₃)=100.1g/mol*1.2g/40.1g/mol=3.0 g
However many ounces you have, just multiply that by 28.34952. The answer to that is the conversion. so 5 ounces is 141.7476. Proof below.
Transform boundaries are places where plates slide sideways past each other. At transform boundaries lithosphere is neither created nor destroyed. Many transform boundaries are found on the sea floor, where they connect segments of diverging mid-ocean ridges. California's San Andreas fault is a transform boundary. So its true
