What do you get when calcium carbonate reacts with nitric acid?

Answer 1

So first we have to identify our reactants and write the chemical equation...

HNO3 + CaSO3 yields Ca(NO3)2 + H2SO3

Now we balance...

2HNO3 + CaSO3 yields Ca(NO3)2 + H2SO3

Remember that 2HNO3 and Ca(NO3)2 dissolve in water and that 2H2SO3 breaks down further into H2O and SO2. The charges are important in a net ionic equation.

So our reaction then becomes:

2H+ + 2NO3- + CaSO3 yields Ca2+ + 2NO3- + H2O + SO2

Once you eliminate the spectators you finally have the net ionic equation:

2H+ + CaSO3 yields Ca2+ + H2O + SO2

Hope that helps!!

Answer 2

Calcium carbonate + nitric acid --> Calcium nitrate (salt) + carbon dioxide (gas) + water

Answer 3

Calcium nitrate, carbon dioxide, and water.

Answer 4

Calcium Carbonate + Hydrogen Nitrate -> Calcium Nitrate + Carbon Dioxide + Water

Answer 5

The chemical equation is:
Ca(OH)2 + 2 HNO3 = Ca(NO3)2 + 2 H2O

Answer 6

2HNO3 + Ca ----> Ca(NO3)2 + H2

Answer 7

2HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 --> Ca(NO3)2 + 2H20
