Answer» Solution :Givne conditions STP conditions `{:(P_(1)="750 mm",P_(2)="760 mm"),(T_(1)="300 K",T_(2)="273 K"),(V_(1)="1 Lit",V_(2)=?):}` From the equation of state, the unknown volume is obtained `V_(2)=(P_(1)V_(1))/(T_(1))xx(T_(2))/(P_(2))=(750xx1xx273)/(300xx760)=0.898L` Calcium carbonate on reaction with hydrochloric acid gives CARBONDIOXIDE. `CaCO_(3)+2HClrarrCaCl_(2)+H_(2)O+CO_(2)` `"1 mole of "CO_(2)-="1 mole of "CaCO_(3)` `"22.4L of "CO_(2)"at STP"="100 grams of "CaCO_(3)` `"0.898 L of "CO_(2)" at STP = ?"` The weight of calcium carbonate required = `(100xx0.989)/(*22.4)="4.009 grams"` |
