I have the same task. Maybe this one would work:
If amount of CaCO3 is known I would try to add stechiometric amount of any diluted acid (e.g. HCl), which would form Ca water soluble salt to solution of MgCO3/CaCO3 in water (note, that these salts are not soluble in water, therefore that will colloid solution).
The reaction would be
CaCO3+2HCl=CaCl2+H2O+CO2.
Calcium is more reactive metal than Mg, therefore, CaCO3 would react first if you add acid. After all CaCO3 is consumed, just filter of MgCO3
Ah, isn't that a lovely question? To find the number of moles in 100 g of MgCO3, we first need to know the molar mass of magnesium carbonate (MgCO3). Then, we can use the formula: moles = mass / molar mass. Just like painting a happy little tree, it's all about following the steps and enjoying the journey to the answer.
I assume you mean MgCO3, not MgCo3 (the first is magnesium carbonate). Be careful when writing CO, because Co is cobalt, and CO is carbon and oxygen. Mg is Magnesium, C is carbon and O is oxygen. Therefore the elements present are magnesium, carbon and oxygen.
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between Na2CO3 and CaCl2 to form CaCO3 and NaCl is: Na2CO3 + CaCl2 -> CaCO3 + 2NaCl. Therefore, the coefficients are 1, 1, 1, and 2 for Na2CO3, CaCl2, CaCO3, and NaCl respectively.

The chemical formula of calcite is CaCO3, which indicates that it is composed of one calcium atom, one carbon atom, and three oxygen atoms.
MgCO3 is thermally less stable than CaCO3 because the bond between magnesium and carbonate is weaker than the bond between calcium and carbonate. This leads to MgCO3 decomposing at a lower temperature compared to CaCO3, releasing carbon dioxide gas.
The two main ingredients are Calcium Carbonate - CaCO3 and Magnesium Carbonate - MgCO3
The symbol for dolomite is CaMg(CO3)2, representing its chemical composition.
Multiply Calcium Hardness mg/L as Ca-CO3 by 0.4 to get Calcium in mg/l.Multiply Calcium in mg/l by 2.5 to get mg/l Calcium Hardness as Ca-Co3.*ppm uses the same equation
Magnesium can be extracted from the minerals Dolomite (CaCO3·MgCO3) and Carnallite (KCl·MgCl2·6H2O), but is most often obtained from seawater
Limestone = CaCo3. Therefore :- CaCO3 --(HEAT)--> CaO + CO2 This is known as thermal decompostition.
The products are calcium and magnesium chlorides, water and carbon dioxide.

CaCO3 is insoluble in water because of its lattice structure and larger ionic size of calcium ions, which makes it difficult for water molecules to surround and solvate the ions effectively. In contrast, MgCO3 is soluble in water due to its smaller ionic size and the presence of polarizing magnesium ions that can attract water molecules and facilitate its dissolution.
The ratio of MgCO3 to WHAT!
it is caused due to the salts of calcium and magnesium carbonates and bicarbonates. CaCO3, MgCO3, Ca(HCO3)2, Mg(HCO3)2
The chemical formula* for magnesium carbonate is MgCO3. *Note that compounds have chemical formulas; elements have chemical symbols.
