Homework Statement
Quicklime (CaO) is produced by the thermal decomposition of calcium carbonate
(CaCO3).
Homework Equations
Calculate the volume of CO2 produced at STP from the decomposition
of 152 g of CaCO3 according to the reaction
CaCO3 (s) -----> CaO(s) + CO2(g)
The Attempt at a Solution
isn't 22.4L ?
all i could find is the mass of co2
CaCO3 (s) -----> CaO(s) + CO2(g)
100.08g/mol 44g/mol
152g x
x = 66.82g of CO2
mco2 = 66.82
but then how to find the volume? :grumpy:
