Calcium carbonate forms limestone, one of the most common rocks on Earth. It also forms stalactites, stalagmites, and many other

types of formations found in caves. When calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is heated, it decomposes to form solid calcium oxide and carbon dioxide gas. Write the balanced equation and calculate how many liters of carbon dioxide will be produced at STP if 2.38 g of calcium carbonate reacts completely?

Answer:  CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g) , 0.533 L

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g)

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L of volume at STP.

Number of moles =\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}

moles of calcium carbonate = \frac{2.38g}{100g/mol}=0.0238mol

As 1 mole of calcium carbonate produces = 22.4 L of carbon dioxide at STP

Thus 0.0238 moles of calcium carbonate produces =\frac{22.4 L}{1}\times 0.0238=0.533L of carbon dioxide at STP

how many moles of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) are required to completely neutralize 2 mol of nitric acid (HNO3)
Brut [27]

2 moles of sodium hydroxide will be needed.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Sodium hydroxide is a compound which is a base and nitric acid is the acid. The formula of the nitric acid is HNO3 and that of sodium hydroxide is NaOH.

The reaction between them are

NaOH +HNO3 =NaNO3 +H2O.

So here we can see that 1 mole of sodium hydroxide reacts with 1 mole of nitric acid to produce 1 mole of sodium nitrate and 1 mole of water.

So for 2 moles of nitric acid, 2 moles of sodium hydroxide will be required.

3. A student carries out the clay-catalyzed dehydration of cyclohexanol starting with 10 moles of cyclohexanol and obtains 500 m
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

49.45~%

Explanation:

In this case, we have to start with the <u>chemical reaction</u>:

C_6H_1_2O~->~C_6H_1_0~+~H_2O

So, if we start with <u>10 mol of cyclohexanol</u> (C_6H_1_2O) we will obtain 10 mol of cyclohexanol (C_6H_1_0). So, we can calculate the grams of cyclohexanol if we<u> calculate the molar mass:</u>

(6*12)+(10*1)=82~g/mol

With this value we can calculate the grams:

10~mol~C_6H_1_0\frac{82~g~C_6H_1_0}{1~mol~C_6H_1_0}=820~g~C_6H_1_0

Now, we have as a product 500 mL of C_6H_1_0. If we use the <u>density value</u> (0.811 g/mL). We can calculate the grams of product:

500~mL\frac{0.811~g}{1~mL}=405.5~g

Finally, with these values we can calculate the <u>yield</u>:

%~=~\frac{405.5}{820}x100~=~49.45%%= (405.5/820)*100 = 49.45 %

See figure 1

I hope it helps!
