To find the total mass of the products, we need to determine the molar mass of each product and then calculate the mass based on the stoichiometry of the reaction.
The molar mass of CO2 is 44 grams/mol and the molar mass of CaO is 56 grams/mol.
Since the stoichiometric coefficient for CO2 is 1, the mass of CO2 produced is 1 * (44 grams/mol) = 44 grams.
Similarly, since the stoichiometric coefficient for CaO is also 1, the mass of CaO produced is 1 * (56 grams/mol) = 56 grams.
Adding the masses of CO2 and CaO gives us the total mass of the products: 44 grams + 56 grams = 100 grams.
Therefore, the correct answer is 100 grams.

To find the total mass of the products, we need to determine the molar masses of CO2 and CaO and then use stoichiometry to calculate the mass of each product.
The molar mass of CO2 is 44 g/mol and the molar mass of CaO is 56 g/mol.
From the balanced equation, we can see that for every 1 mole of CaCO3, 1 mole of CO2 and 1 mole of CaO are produced.
Since we are given 30 grams of CaCO3, we need to calculate the moles of CaCO3 first.
moles of CaCO3 = mass of CaCO3 / molar mass of CaCO3
moles of CaCO3 = 30 g / 100.09 g/mol (molar mass of CaCO3)
moles of CaCO3 ≈ 0.2999 mol
Based on the stoichiometry, we can see that 1 mole of CaCO3 produces 1 mole of CO2 and 1 mole of CaO, which means the moles of CO2 and CaO produced will also be approximately 0.2999 mol.
To calculate the mass of CO2 and CaO produced, we can use the following equations:
mass of CO2 = moles of CO2 * molar mass of CO2
mass of CO2 = 0.2999 mol * 44 g/mol
mass of CO2 ≈ 13.196 g ≈ 13.2 g (rounded to the nearest tenth)
mass of CaO = moles of CaO * molar mass of CaO
mass of CaO = 0.2999 mol * 56 g/mol
mass of CaO ≈ 16.792 g ≈ 16.8 g (rounded to the nearest tenth)
Therefore, the total mass of the products (CO2 + CaO) is approximately 13.2 g + 16.8 g = 30 g.
The correct answer is d) 30 grams.
The molar mass of CO2 is 44 g/mol and the molar mass of CaO is 56 g/mol.
From the balanced equation, we can see that for every 1 mole of CaCO3, 1 mole of CO2 and 1 mole of CaO are produced.
Since we are given 30 grams of CaCO3, we need to calculate the moles of CaCO3 first.
moles of CaCO3 = mass of CaCO3 / molar mass of CaCO3
moles of CaCO3 = 30 g / 100.09 g/mol (molar mass of CaCO3)
moles of CaCO3 ≈ 0.2999 mol
Based on the stoichiometry, we can see that 1 mole of CaCO3 produces 1 mole of CO2 and 1 mole of CaO, which means the moles of CO2 and CaO produced will also be approximately 0.2999 mol.
To calculate the mass of CO2 and CaO produced, we can use the following equations:
mass of CO2 = moles of CO2 * molar mass of CO2
mass of CO2 = 0.2999 mol * 44 g/mol
mass of CO2 ≈ 13.196 g ≈ 13.2 g (rounded to the nearest tenth)
mass of CaO = moles of CaO * molar mass of CaO
mass of CaO = 0.2999 mol * 56 g/mol
mass of CaO ≈ 16.792 g ≈ 16.8 g (rounded to the nearest tenth)
Therefore, the total mass of the products (CO2 + CaO) is approximately 13.2 g + 16.8 g = 30 g.
The correct answer is d) 30 grams.

The correct answer is: They are rearranged.
During a chemical reaction, atoms are rearranged to form new compounds. In the given reaction, 4 atoms of iron (Fe) react with 3 molecules of oxygen (O2) to form 2 molecules of iron oxide (Fe2O3). The iron and oxygen atoms are not lost or gained, but rather rearranged to form a new compound. Therefore, the atoms maintain their properties but are rearranged in the reaction.
