Convert 0.88 g CO2 to CaCO3.
That's 0.88 x (molar mass CaCO3/molar mass CO2) = ?g CaCO3
Then % CaCO3 in sample = (?g CaCO3/mass sample)*100 = ?
4g of a mixture of CaCO3 and sand is treated with an excess of HCl and 0.88g of CO2 is produced. What is the percentage of CaCO3 in the mixture

44gms of CO2
is produced by (40+12+48)100gms of CaCO3
0.88gm of CO2
must be produced by (100/44)×0.88= 2gm of CaCO3
So the amount of pure CaCO3
present in 4gm of impure sample is 2gms.
So percentage of purity = (2/4) ×100= 50
is produced by (40+12+48)100gms of CaCO3
0.88gm of CO2
must be produced by (100/44)×0.88= 2gm of CaCO3
So the amount of pure CaCO3
present in 4gm of impure sample is 2gms.
So percentage of purity = (2/4) ×100= 50
it is right
It's right
