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

How much more mass does carbón -14 have compared to carbón -12
lorasvet [3.4K]
A neutral atom of Carbon-12 contains six protons, six neutrons, and six electrons; therefore, it has a mass number of 12 (six protons plus six neutrons). Neutral carbon-14 contains six protons, eight neutrons, and six electrons; its mass number is 14

Which parts of the amino acids X and Y are involved in the formation of a peptide bond? (N-terminus) XY (C-terminus)
elixir [45]

Answer:

<h2>The carboxyl group of one amino acid that is X and the amino group of other amino acid that is Y.</h2>

Explanation:

The amino acid is such type of the organic compound that contains one central carbon atoms and four other groups are directly connected with central carbon atoms such as one hydrogen atom, one R group, one carboxyl group, and one amino group.  

                       The carboxyl group and amino group plays an important role in the formation of the peptide bond. When the formation of a peptide bond, takes place then two amino acids are involved in which the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amino group of other amino acids are linked to form a peptide bond.

What is the value of packing fraction for a primitive bravias lattice ?​<br><br>thankyou ~
zaharov [31]

hi

In crystallography, atomic packing factor (APF), packing efficiency, or packing fraction is the fraction of volume in a crystal structure that is occupied by constituent particles. It is a dimensionless quantity and always less than unity. In atomic systems, by convention, the APF is determined by assuming that atoms are rigid spheres

APF=N particle V particle/V unit cell
