Question 65: If 1.4 g of calcium oxide is formed by the complete decomposition of calcium carbonate, then the amount of calcium carbonate taken and the amount of carbon dioxide formed will be respectively :
(a) 2.2 g and 1.1 g
(b) 1.1 g and 2.5 g
(c) 2.5 g and 1.1 g
(d) 5.0 g and 1.1 g

Text SolutionText solutionverified iconVerified

Answer: (c) 2.5 gm and 1.1 gm

Molecular mass of CaCO3: 40 + 12 + (16 × 3) = 100g
Molecular mass of CaO: 40 + 16 = 56g
Molecular mass of CO2: 12 + (16 × 2) = 44g
Reaction for the decomposition of calcium carbonate:



56 g of CaO is obtained when 100g of CaCO3 is burnt.
Therefore, to get 1.4g of CaO, the amount of CaCO3 to be burnt will be

For CO2,
100g of CaCO3 yields 44g of CO2
Therefore, 2.5g of CaCO3 will yield;
