<h2>
Answer: 131.9 g</h2>
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
<u>Write a Balanced Equation for the decomposition</u>
CaCO₃ → CaO + CO₂
<u></u>
<u>Find Moles of CO₂ Produced</u>
Since the mole ratio of CaCO₃ to CO₂ is 1 to 1,
the moles of CaCO₃ = moles of CO₂
moles of CaCO₃ = mass ÷ molar mass
= 300 g ÷ 100.087 g/mol
= 2.997 moles
∴ moles of CO₂ = 2.997 moles
<u>Determine Mass of CO₂</u>
Mass = moles × molar mass
= 2.997 mol × 44.01 g/mol
= 131.9 g
<u></u>
<h3>∴ when 300 g of calcium carbonate is decomposed, it produces 131.9 g of carbon dioxide.</h3>
When electrons in atom interaction with light or photons one of the two process takes place:
1) they can absorb photons of a characteristic wavelength (which depends on the energy difference between two interacting atomic levels) and get excited to a higher energy level
2) or they can jump to a lower energy level and emit photons of the corresponding wavelength.
The type of spectrum produced when electrons in an atom undergo transitions to various levels by absorbing or emitting photons is termed as atomic spectrum.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
More electrons than protons, thus giving the atom an overall charge of -2
