Chemical energy sources are often portable and provide large amounts of energy. Fossil fuels are one kind of chemical energy sou

rce. Most of the energy we use in the United States is generated by the combustion of fossil fuels. However, fossil fuel combustion adds greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, mostly CO2. One measure of the total amount of greenhouse gases that are emitted into the atmosphere each year is called a carbon footprint. Study these images to compare the carbon footprint of an average person in the United States to an average person around the world.
Knowing that greenhouse gases are contributing to climate change, how can we reduce our carbon footprint, particularly in the United States? Could hydrogen fuel replace fossil fuels in the future? Why or why not? Should the size of a person’s carbon footprint be limited by law? Why or why not?

First, let's count mole of 10 g Calcium Carbonate

mole = Mass / Molecular Mass

Calcium Carbonate = CaCO₃

Molecular Mass = Ar Ca + Ar C + (3 x Ar O)

Molecular Mass = 40 + 12 + (3 x 16)

Molecular Mass = 100

next

Mole of CaCO₃ = 10 gram / 100

Mole of CaCO₃ = 0,1 mol

then equal the reaction equation first

 CaCO₃ + 2 HCl  ==>  CaCl₂ +  CO₂  +  H₂O     (Equal)

To count the mass of carbon dioxide that produced we must know the mole of CO₂ first

we can count by coefficient comparison

mole CO₂ = \frac{coefficient \ of \ CO_2}{coefficient \ of \ CaCO_3}  x mole CaCO₃

mole  CO₂ =  (1/1)  x 0,1 mole

mole  CO₂ = 0,1 mole

so

Mass of  CO₂ = mole  CO₂ x  Molecular Mass of  CO₂

Mass of  CO₂ = 0,1 mole x (12 + (2 x 16))

Mass of  CO₂ = 0,1 mole x 44

Mass of  CO₂ = 4,4 g

so, mass of carbon dioxide that's produced by 10 g of calcium carbonate on reaction with chloride acid is 4,4 g.

Which diagram represents this molecule?
zepelin [54]

Answer:

  C

Explanation:

The molecule has 8 carbon atoms joined by 7 C-C bonds.

The first two diagrams show 6 carbon atoms, not 8.

The last two diagrams show line segments representing C-C bonds. Only choice C shows 7 such segments.

The appropriate choice is C.

Classify each as the following:element, compound, or mixture:
Studentka2010 [4]
1. element 
2. compound
3. element
4. compound
5. compound
6. compound

basically, if its on the periodic table, its an element. for example, rock can be made of many things in the periodic table, therefore its a compound. salt, is NaCl, which are two elements put together, therefore its a compound.
