Answer:
oxygen makes a 48% of the mass of caco3
Explanation:
the mass of one mole of calcium carbonate is 100.1g of the mass
40.1g is due to the one mole of calcium atoms it contains
12.0g is due to one mole of carbon in it
48.0g is due to the 3 moles of oxygen atoms in one mole of caco3
To find percent composition
mass of element\molar mass of compound×100
48.0/100.1×100=48%

Percentage of oxygen in calcium carbonate is 48 percent.....
Calcium carbonate is CaCO3 Atomic mass Ca=40 C=12 O3=(16)3=48
Total mass of CaCO3=100
Now percentage of O3 is (48÷100)×100
Which is 48%.....
Hope it will help you.....
