Determine the calcium carbonate equivalent (cce) of the following compounds: (amount that has the same neutralizing value as 100 g pure caco3) (a) mgo (b) mg(oh)2 (c) and camg(co3)2.

a) 40 g

b) 58 g

c) 184 g

Explanation:

The calcium carbonate equivalent of any compound is calculated by calculating it molar mass.

The molar mass of the compound is the calcium carbonate equivalent as it corresponds to 1 mole of the compound and equals to one mole of calcium carbonate then.

a) MgO

Atomic mass of Mg = 24

Atomic mass of O = 16

Molar mass = CCE = 24+16 = 40 g

b) Mg(OH)₂

Atomic mass of Mg = 24

Atomic mass of O = 16

Atomic mass of H = 1

Molar mass of Mg(OH)₂= CCE = 24 + (2X16)+2(X1) = 58g

c) CaMg(CO₃)2

Atomic mass of Mg = 24

Atomic mass of O = 16

Atomic mass of C = 12

Atomic mass of Ca = 40

Molar mass = CCE = 40 + 24 + (2X12) + (6X16) = 184 g.

the grams   of   barium that   are in   2.3 x 10^23   atoms of barium   is   52.4 g (answer c)

    calculation

mass = moles   of ba   x molar   mass of ba

  molar mass of ba from periodic table=   137.3 g/mol

  use the   avogadro's law   constant   to   calculate the moles of barium

  that   is     1 mole =   6.02   x 10^23 atoms

                    ? moles = 2.3 x 10^23   atoms

by cross   multiplication

=(1 mole   x 2.3x 10^23 atoms)   / 6.02   x10^23 atoms)=   0.382   moles

mass   is therefore = 137.3   g/mol x 0.382 mol = 52.4 ( answer c)

explanation:

the answer is the first option

explanation:

just googled it m8. not that hard
