What mass of carbon dioxide could be made from 100 tonnes of calcium carbonate?

1 answer:

3 0

Total mass of CaCO3 = 40 amu of Ca + 12amu of C + 16×3 amu of oxygen = 100amu of CaCO3

i.e 100 tonnes of CaCO3 .

mass of CO2 = 12amu of C + 2× 16amu of O = 44 amu of CO2

mass % of CO2 in CaCO3 = (44/100)×100 =44%

i.e
44% of 100 tonnes is CO2.
=44 tonnes of CO2.

therefore, 44% of CO2 is present in CaCO3.

If 500.0 mL of 0.10 M Ca2+ is mixed with 500.0 mL of 0.10 M SO42−, what mass of calcium sulfate will precipitate? Ksp for CaSO4

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

The mass of calcium sulfate that will precipitate is 6.14 grams

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

500.0 mL of 0.10 M Ca^2+ is mixed with 500.0 mL of 0.10 M SO4^2−

Ksp for CaSO4 is 2.40*10^−5

Step 2: Calculate moles of Ca^2+

Moles of Ca^2+ = Molarity Ca^2+ * volume

Moles of Ca^2+ = 0.10 * 0.500 L

Moles Ca^2+ = 0.05 moles

Step 3: Calculate moles of SO4^2-

Moles of SO4^2- = 0.10 * 0.500 L

Moles SO4^2- = 0.05 moles

Step 4: Calculate total volume

500.0 mL + 500.0 mL = 1000 mL = 1L

Step 5: Calculate Q

Q = [Ca2+] [SO42-]

[Ca2+]= 0.050 M [O42-]

Qsp = (0.050)(0.050 )=0.0025 >> Ksp

This means precipitation will occur

Step 6: Calculate molar solubility

Ksp = 2.40 * 10^-5 = [Ca2+][SO42-] =(x)(x)

2.40 * 10^-5 = x²

x = √(2.40 * 10^-5)

x = 0.0049 M = Molar solubility

Step 7: Calculate total CaSO4 dissolved

total CaSO4 dissolved = 0.0049 M * 1 L * 136.14 mol/L = 0.667 g

Step 8: Calculate initial mass of CaSO4

Since initial moles CaSo4 = 0.050

Initial mass of CaSO4 = 0.050 * 136.14 g/mol

Initial mass of CaSO4 = 6.807 grams

Step 9: Calculate mass precipitate

6.807 - 0.667 = 6.14 grams

The mass of calcium sulfate that will precipitate is 6.14 grams

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

C24H2CL213

Explanation:

(10.05/100)x119.5

=12x2=24

(0.083/100)x119.5

=1x2=2

(89.12/100)x119.5

=106.5x2=213

What is the molality of a solution in which 3.0 moles of NaCl is dissolved in 1.5 Kg of water?

Nesterboy [21]

Density H2O = 1g/cm³
1,5 kg H2O = 1500g = 1500cm³ (1dm³ = 1000cm³)

3moles of NaCl-----in---------1500cm³ H2O
x moles of NaCl ----in--------1000cm³ H2O
x = 2moles of NaCl

answer: 2 mol/dm³
