Question

Calculate weight of oxygen atom in 50 gram of caco3

Answer 1

mol. Wt. of caco3 =40 +12 +3 x 16 = 100gm


100gm of caCo contains = 3 x 6.022 x 10^23 atom of oxygen

Answer 2

$\huge\red{\boxed{\bold{Solutions}}}$

• No. Of moles of CaCO3 = 50/100 = 0.5. (mol. At of CaCO3 = 100)

$\large\underline\mathrm\orange{Now}$,

• 1 molecules of CaCO3 contain 3 atom of O.

$\large\underline\mathrm\orange{Or}$

• 1 mole of CaCO3 contain 3 atom of O.

$\large\underline\mathrm\orange{Or}$

• 0.5 mole of CaCO3 contain 1.5 atom of O.
• No. of atom of O = no. 1.5 × 6.022 × 10^23.

$\implies$ 9.033 × 10^23.

• Wt. Of atom of O = no. of moles × at. Wt. of O

$\implies$ 1.5 × 16

$\implies$ 24 g.
