Answer:

CaCO

3

Δ

CaO+CO

2

Molar masses of CaO and CaCO

3

are 56 g/mol and 100 g/mol respectively.

Mass of CaO=56 kg=56000 g

(∵1 kg=1000 g)

Number of moles of CaO=

56 g/mol

56000 g

=1000 mol

As per balanced chemical equation, 1 mole of CaO is obtained by heating 1 mole of CaCO

3

.

Hence, 1000 moles of CaO will be obtained by heating 1000 moles of CaCO

3

.

Mass of CaCO

3

=1000 mol×100 g/mol=10

5

g

Convert unit from g to kg.

Mass of CaCO

3

=10

5

1000 g

1 kg

=100 kg
