Hello there.

Explanation. . .

The reaction in which calcium carbonate produces calcium oxide and carbon dioxide is: CaCO3 = CaO + CO2.

The breaking down of calcium carbonate to calcium oxide and carbon dioxide is called DECOMPOSITION REACTION. A decomposition reaction is a type of reaction in which a single element is broken down into two or more elemental parts, which are less complex than the parent compound.There are three types of decomposition reaction, these are thermal, photo and electrolytic decomposition reactions.

Do you get it now? If no and you dont get the answer I will explain more further...

Ok then..

Limestone and chalk are both forms of calcium carbonate and dolomite is a mixture of calcium and magnesium carbonates. ... In the chemical industry, large quantities of limestone are heated to ca 1500 K to form calcium oxide, known as quicklime: Water can be added to lime to form calcium hydroxide. Usually CaO is converted to Ca(OH)2 in presence of H2O (it's a quick and exothermic reaction). The formed Ca(OH)2 maybe converted into CaCO3 in presence of CO2. Thus, CaCO3 is dominant species in soil compared to CaO. Best regards Nil...Therefor there can not be same value for CaO and CaCO3..

the ozone layer acts as a filter for the shorter wavelength and highly hazardous ultraviolet radiation (uvr) from the sun, protecting life on earth from its potentially harmful effects. when the sky is clear, there is an inverse relationship between stratospheric ozone and solar uvr measured at the earth's surface.

Answer from: Quest

because natural gas is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, distributors add mercaptan (a chemical that smells like sulfur) to give natural gas a distinct unpleasant odor (it smells like rotten eggs). they locate the types of rock that are likely to contain natural gas deposits.

Modern pennies are composed of zinc coated with copper. a student determines the mass of a penny to be 2.482 g and then makes several scratches in the copper coaling (to expose the underlying zinc). the student puts the scratched penny in hydrochloric acid, where the following reaction occurs between the zinc and the hcl (the copper remains undissolved): zn(s) + 2 hcl(aq) → h2(g) + zncl(aq)the student collects the hydrogen produced over water at 25 °c. the collected gas occupies a volume of 0.899 l at a total pressure of 79 j mmhg. calculate the percent zinc (by mass) in the penny. (assume that all the zn in the penny dissolves.)
