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

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The student is Incorrect

Explanation:

Even if you break a magnet the poles still remains same. There is no

difference in the magnet Both north  and south pole will be there even if you

cut it in to small pieces when you cut it into pieces, if suppose you  break 2

magnets and put north and north together it will repel whereas if there  are  

different  poles like north and south it will attract, so even if you break one

single magnet the different poles will attract, Hence the student is incorrect.

1. A gas expands and does p-v work on the surroundings equal to
azamat

The change in energy of the system : -63 J

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

279 J work

216 J heat

Required

The change in energy

Solution

Laws of thermodynamics 1

ΔU=Q+W

Rules :

  • receives heat, Q +  
  • releases heat, Q -  
  • work is done by a system, W -  
  • work is done on a system, W +  

a gas work on the surrounding : W =-279 J

a gas absorb heat from surrounding : Q = +216 J

Internal energy :

= -279+216

= -63 J
