10.0 g of calcium carbonate was heated. The mass of calcium oxide left was 5.6 g. Calculate the mass of
carbon dioxide produced in the reaction.
CaCO3(s) + Cao(s) + CO2(g)

4.4g

Explanation:

Mass of CaCO3 = 10g

Mass of CaO = 5.6g

Mass of CO2 =?

Mass of CaCO3 = Mass of CaO + Mass of CO2

Mass of CO2 = Mass of CaCO3 — Mass of CaO

Mass of CO2 = 10 — 5.6

Mass of CO2 = 4.4g

4.4g

Explanation:

Calculate the molar mass of CaCO3

40+12+(16×3)

40+12+48

100 g/mol

Calculate the molar mass of CO2

12+(16×2)

12+32

44g/mol

100g of CaCO3=44g of CO2

10g of CaCO3=10×44/100

g of CO2=440/100

=4.4g of CO2

the earth would become to overheated and everything alive on it will eventually die from overheating. plants will eventually die as well, water will evaporate, and it will be nothing but a hot planet without anything living on it.
