Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the mass of calcium oxide (CaO) obtained by heating 3 moles of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃), we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Write the Balanced Chemical Equation**: When calcium carbonate is heated, it decomposes into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. The balanced equation for this reaction is: \[ \text{CaCO}_3 (s) \rightarrow \text{CaO} (s) + \text{CO}_2 (g) ...
