What is Q?

  1. carbon
  2. chlorine
  3. hydrogen
  4. oxygen
Answer/Explanation

Ans:

A

Question

 Calcium carbonate, \(CaCO_{3}\), reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid to produce carbon dioxide. The equation for the reaction is shown. The relative formula mass of calcium carbonate is 100.

\(CaCO_{3}+2HC\imath \rightarrow CaC\imath _{2}+H_{2}O+CO_{2}\)

10 g of calcium carbonate is reacted with an excess of dilute hydrochloric acid. Which mass of carbon dioxide is produced?

A. 2.2 g                B. 2.8 g                    C. 4.4 g                 D. 44 g

Answer/Explanation
