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

ioda
<span>The function of a hypothesis is to create a testable statement. In that, a hypothesis can be followed up by a experiment. Hypotheses can be used in order to determine if there is a result of an affect, this is the independent variable, what you get out is the dependent variable, or the result. There is a control that is used generally as a means to test your hypothesis to a standard.</span>

What’s the distance from the nucleus of an atom to its theoretical outer edge of electron orbits
ollegr [7]

Answer:

The range of atoms = (30-300 pm) depending upon the element

Explanation:

The Atomic radii of the atom is the distance from the center of the circle to the outermost orbital.

The center of the circle is the nucleus and the radii is the outermost boundary.

The actual size of the atom is decided on the basis of the Zeff . Also known as <em>effective nuclear charge.</em>

<em>Zeff: It is the net positive charge felt by the outermost electron by the nucleus.</em>

<em>The value of Zeff depends upon the shielding constant. More the shielding less will be the Zeff . Hence the size of the atom increases.</em>

Due to shielding the outermost electrons feel less pull of nucleus.

<em>The greater the Zeff , the smaller the radius of the atom.</em>

The formula used to calculate the atomic mass is :

r_{n}=\frac{52.9n^{2}}{Z}pm

Here "pm"= picometers

1 pm = 10^{-12}m

<u>The size of the smallest atom H-atom = 120 pm</u>

<u>The range of atoms = (30-300 pm)</u>
