What else can I help you with?
Calcium carbonate is a type of hydrogenous sediment that can be buried and hardened into .?
Calcium oxide.
What metal that occurs in vast limestone deposits and combines with oxygen to form a oxide with a formula MO?
The metal is calcium (Ca), which occurs in vast limestone deposits. When calcium combines with oxygen, it forms calcium oxide (CaO) as the oxide compound.
How many kilograms of limestone is needed to make 100 kilograms of calcium oxide?
To make 100 kilograms of calcium oxide, you would need 100 kilograms of limestone. This is because limestone is primarily composed of calcium carbonate, which upon heating, produces calcium oxide (quicklime) as one of the products.
What gas does limestone produce when heated?
Calcium oxide
When limestone is heated what gas is made?
Calcium oxide
How do you convert limestone into calcium oxide?
Limestone is heated in a kiln at high temperatures (around 900-1000°C) to convert it into calcium oxide (quicklime). This process is called calcination, where limestone (CaCO3) releases carbon dioxide and water vapor to form calcium oxide (CaO).
What are the chemical components of limestone?
calcium oxide calcium carbonate and something else....
If you heated limestone how would you expect the mass of the limestone to compare with the mass of calcium oxide?
When limestone is heated, it undergoes a chemical reaction that releases carbon dioxide gas, leaving behind calcium oxide. As a result, the mass of the limestone would be greater than the mass of the calcium oxide produced, due to the loss of carbon dioxide during the reaction.
How is limestone produced and what it is commonly used for?
Limestone is mainly calcium carbonate, CaCO3. When heated, it breaks down to form calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. Calcium oxide reacts with water to produce calcium hydroxide. Limestone and its products have many uses: for example, in mortar, cement, concrete and glass.
What is formed when limestone is heated?
When heated, limestone forms two different things. It forms both calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. This occurs because limestone is made up of calcium carbonate.
What is the white solid produced when heating limestone?
When limestone (CaCO3) is heated, calcium oxide is produced!
What are the products when limestone is heated strongly?
carbon dioxide calcium oxide (quicklime) CaCO3 > CaO + CO2
