The reaction between calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid can be expressed through the chemical reaction,

    CaCO3 + 2HCl --> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2

The molecular weight of calcium carbonate is 100 g/mol while that of hydrochloric acid is 36.45. The equation above depicts that 100 g of calcium carbonate can be dissolved in 72.9 g of hydrochloric acid. 

    x = (4 g HCl)(100 g CaCO3 / 72.9 HCl)
      x = 5.49 g

Answer: 5.49 g

Answer:

4 grams of HCl need 5.486 grams of CaCO3

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction between hydrocloric acid and calcium carbonate can be expressed as

CaCO3+ 2HCl -> CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O

This means that 1 mole of CaCO3 reacts with 2 mole of HCl to produce 1 mole of CaCl2,CO2 and H2O.

2 mole of HCl needs 2 mole of CaCO3  

In term of mass we can write that

72.9 grams of HCl need 100 grams of CaCO3

1 grams of HCl need (100/72.9) grams of CaCO3

4 grams of HCl need ((100*4)/72.9) grams of CaCO3

4 grams of HCl need 5.486 grams of CaCO3

Answer : Option D) 2.50 X 10^{-3} Mol/(L s)

Explanation: While calculating the average reaction rate for the given reaction in terms of Cl;

H_{2} + Cl_{2}  ----\ \textgreater \  2HCl.

using the rate equation which is;

\frac{-1}{1}\frac{delta [Cl]}{delta t} = 

\frac{- 0.0875 - 0.0625}{10s - 0s} = 2.50 X 10^{-3} Mol/(L s)

An equilibrium mixture of O2, SO2 and SO3 contains equal concentrations of SO2 and SO3.
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

[O₂(g)] = 0.0037M

Explanation:

            2SO₂(g) + O₂(g) => 2SO₃(g)

Conc:   [SO₂(g)]   [O₂(g)]     [SO₃(g)]  and  [SO₂(g)] = [SO₃(g)]

Kc =  [SO₃(g)]²/[O₂(g)][SO₂(g)]² => Kc = 1/[O₂(g)] = 270 if [SO₂(g)] = [SO₃(g)]

∴ [O₂(g)] = (1/270)M = 0.0037M

Calcium carbonate decomposes into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide when heated. Calculate the mass of carbon dioxide released wh
erastovalidia [21]
<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>
