How Many Litters of Carbon Dioxide gas is formed with 50 g of Calcium Carbonate decomposes?
CaCO3 "\\to" CaO + CO2
molar mass (M) of CaCO3 = 100.086 g/mol
no. of moles of CaCO3 = 50/100.086 = 0.499moles
CaCO3 and CaO and CO2 have equal moles
At STP of 273.15 K (0°C) and 1 atm, the molar volume of a gas is 22.414 L/mol.
Volume of CO2 = 0.499×22.414 = 11.18L
