If 20 grams of CaCo3 is treated with a hundred ml of 20% HCL solution,

what is the amount of CO2 produced?

1mol CaCO3 reacts with реагира со 2 mol HCl за да произведе 1 mol CO2

Molar mass CaCO3 = 100g/mol

Mol CaCO3 in 20g = 20/100 = 0.20mol

This will react with ова ќе има реакција со 0.4 mol HCl

Molar mass HCl = 36.45g/mol

mol HCl in 20g HCl = 20/36.45 = 0.548 mol

You have excess Имаме вишок HCl - the CaCO3 is limiting ја лимитира

0.2 mol CaCO3 will produce ќе произведе 0.2 mol CO2

Molar mass CO2 = 44g/mol

Mass of 0.2 mol CO2 = 0.2*44 = 8.8g CO2 produced.
