A `120gm CaCO_(3)` sample having inert impurities on heating produced `56gm` of residue. Find `%` purity of sample .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`{:("Balanced Rxn". ,CaCO_(3)(s),overset(Delta)rarr,CaO(s),+,CO_(2)(g)),(,,1mol,,56gm,),(,,=100ml,=mol,,):}`
`%` purity `=(100)/(120) xx 100 = 83.3 %` .
