Which elements are in CoCO3?

The compound CaCO3 contains the following elements;Calcium (Ca)Carbon (C)Oxygen (O)1 Calcium Atom, 1 Carbon Atom, 3 Oxygen Atoms


What information is needed to calculate the mass of calcium oxide that can be produced frrom 4.7 kg of calcium carbonate?

To calculate the mass of calcium oxide produced from 4.7 kg of calcium carbonate, you need to know the molar mass of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and calcium oxide (CaO), as well as the stoichiometry of the reaction between these two compounds. This information will allow you to determine the theoretical yield of calcium oxide that can be obtained from the given mass of calcium carbonate.


Calcium carbonate plus hydrochloric acid is i dont know plus water is?

calcium carbonate + Hydrochloric acid= Calcium chloride + water + carbon dioxide


Why ammonium oxalate is added in calcium carbonate solution?

Calcium carbonate is rather INsoluble, so there is no solution of it. I do not know why ammonium oxalate is added to a calcium carbonate solution. Calcium oxalate will then precipitate out of the solution. The ammonium and carbonate will create a weakly bond compound. Actually, more of the ammonium ion will be in solution as free ammonia and more of the carbonate ions will be in solution as free carbon dioxide. That is the nature of those two substances. So, you will have a solution that has a calcium oxalate precipitant on the bottom and is slowly giving off ammonia and carbon dioxide.


What is the gas made when rain water reacts calcium carbonate?

The gas produced when rain water reacts with calcium carbonate is carbon dioxide. This reaction forms calcium bicarbonate, which is soluble in water, and releases carbon dioxide gas.

What is calcium carbonate normally know as?

Calcium Carbonate is commonly known as limestone ; calcite; aragonite; chalk; marble; or pearl.


What is calcium carbonate made up of?

It is made up of carbon, oxygen and calcium. A carbonate contains oxygen and carbon so you know that, and then you can see that as it is called calcium carbonate it also contains calcium. :)


What elements make up the compound chalk?

Chalk is composed mainly of calcium carbonate, as well as small amounts of other minerals and impurities. When calcium carbonate undergoes pressure and temperature changes over time, it forms the compact rock that we commonly know as chalk.


Is calcium carbonate edible?

I know calcium carbonate is consumed by pregnant woment in the south-eastern parts of Nigeria. it is also called 'calabar chalk'. I have not seen any medical for the consumtion of calcium carbonate.


Can lime soda kill you if mixed with chalk?

anything is deadly in high enough doses however in a common cause chalk is just calcium carbonate which is a common form of how the human body gets it calcium and is used in most dietary supplements these days if you want to know more about effects i suggest google calcium toxicity


Can chalk burn?

Yes, chalk is made of calcium carbonate, which can burn when exposed to high temperatures. The chalk will undergo chemical changes and eventually turn into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide when burned.

Does Chalk Dissolve in Lemon Juice Vinegar or Water first?

Chalk dissolves first in vinegar, followed by lemon juice, and lastly in water. This is because vinegar is acidic and reacts with the calcium carbonate in chalk to form a soluble calcium salt. Lemon juice, also acidic but less so than vinegar, dissolves chalk at a slower rate. Water alone does not chemically interact with chalk to dissolve it.


Who discovered calcium carbonate?

No one discovered calcium carbonate!!! It has been there since pre-history. The ancients and modern people know it as 'limestone' or 'chalk'. It has been known since pre-Roman times that it would react with an acid. Its chemical formula is 'CaCO3', that is one calcium atom , one carbon atom and three oxygen atoms. It is a very useful substance. It can be used for reducing the acid level in the ground for growing plants. It can be used for metal reduction. If you have acid reflux (heartburn) , then powdered calcium carbonate will reduce the reflux.


What mass of carbon dioxide will be produced?

Full question: Ordinary chalkboard chalk is a solid mixture with limestone (calcium carbonate) and gypsum (calcium sulfate) as its principal ingredients. The limestone dissolves in dilute hydrochloric acid, producing calcium chloride, carbon dioxide, and water. 1.) Gypsum does not react with HCl. If a 5.05g piece of chalk that is 72.0% calcium carbonate is dissolved in excess HCl, what mass of carbon dioxide will be produced? 2.) Determine the mass percent of calcium carbonate in a 4.38g piece of chalk that yields 1.31g carbon dioxide when it reacts with excess HCl?
