One molecule of calcium oxide, CaO , and one molecule of carbon dioxide, CO2 , combine in a chemical reaction to form one substance. Given that matter is neither created nor destroyed, which chemical formula identifies the product of this reaction?(1 point) Responses Ca2CO3 Ca sub 2 C O sub 3 Ca2O3 Ca sub 2 O sub 3 CaCO2 C a C O sub 2 CaCO3

1 answer

The reaction between calcium oxide (CaO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) forms calcium carbonate. The chemical formula for calcium carbonate is CaCO3.

So, the correct response is CaCO3.
