### Related Formula mathrmCaCO_3 xrightarrowDelta mathrmCaO + mathrmCO_2 textPure mass = textTotal mass times fractextPurity \%100 ### Core Logic 1. Find the pure mass of calcium carbonate (CaCO_3) present: textMass of CaCO_3 = 150 times frac75100 = 112.5 mathrm~kg = 112500 mathrm~g 2. Convert this mass into moles (Molar mass of CaCO_3 = 40+12+48 = 100 mathrm~gcdot mol^-1): textmoles of CaCO_3 = frac112500100 = 1125 text moles 3. From the stoichiometry of the reaction, 1 mole of CaCO_3 yields 1 mole of CaO: textmoles of CaO = 1125 text moles textMass of CaO = 1125 times 56 mathrm~g = 63000 mathrm~g = 63 mathrm~kg ### Pattern Recognition Always multiply by the purity fraction first before entering regular stoichiometric conversion chains. Since the formula weight of limestone is exactly 100, tracking percentages directly mirrors mole factors seamlessly. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry
