First write and balance the equation, being:
CaCO3 - CaO + CO2
Then, using the periodic table, find the molecular masses of CaCO3 and of CaO, finding their ratio. That will be 100g:56g or 0.1kg:0.056kg. Since you have 4.7kg of CaCO3, it corresponds to Xkg of CaO. Making x the subject, it should be X= 4.7*0.056/100=0,002632
Answer:
elements
Matter that has only one kind of atom is called an element. Gold, copper, oxygen, and mercury are examples of elements. Most matter is made up of two or more different kinds of atoms that are chemically combined. This kind of matter is called a compound.
