1.	Calcium carbonate decomposes on heating to give calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. How much volume of CO_2 will be obtained by thermal decomposition of 50g CaCO_3 ?
Answer» 1L 11.2 L 44 L 22.4 L Solution :`UNDERSET(100G)(CaCO_3) to CaO + underset ("1 mole " = 22.4L)(CO_2)` 100g of `CaCO_3` at STP gives 22.4 L of `CO_2` 50g of `CaCO_3` will produce `(22.4)/(100)xx50=11.2L " of " CO_2`
