Explanation / Answer

1)

from reaction,

2 moles of CaCO3 liberates 178.1 KJ

So,

to liberate 545 KJ, moles of CaCO3 required = 2*(545/178.1)

= 6.12 mol

Molar mass of CaCO3 = 1*MM(Ca) + 1*MM(C) + 3*MM(O)

= 1*40.08 + 1*12.01 + 3*16.0

= 100.09 g/mol

we have below equation to be used:

mass of CaCO3,

m = number of mol * molar mass

= 6.12 mol * 100.09 g/mol

= 613 g

Answer: 613 g
