How much volume of carbon dioxide is produced when 50 g of calcium carbonate is heated completely under standard condition ?

Options

A. `2.24xx10^(-2)m^(3)`
B. 22.4L
C. 11.2L
D. 22400 `cm^(3)`

Answer

C

Explanation

`underset(100g)underset(40+12+48)(CaCO_(3)) overset(Delta)(to)CaO + underset(22.4L)(CO_(2))uarr`
100 g of `CaCO_(3)` produces 22.4 litres of `CO_(2)`.
`:.` 50 g of `CaCO_(3)` will produce=`22.4/cancel(100) xxcancel(50)=11.2L`
