100g of CaCO, is treated with 1 liter of 1 NHCI. What would be the weight of CO2 liberated after the completion of the reaction

Correct answer: C. 22g

  • A. 5.5g
  • B. 11g
  • C. 22g
  • D. 33g

Explanation

Let's perform the calculations:Molar mass of CACO3=40.08+12.01+(3×16.00)Moles of CaCO3 =100/40.08+12.01+(3×16.00)Moles of CO2 =Moles of CaCO3 Weight of CO2 =Moles of CO2 ×(12.01+(2×16.00))After performing the calculations, the weight of CO2 is approximately 22g.Therefore, the correct answer is: c. 22g
