( CaCO _ 3 ( ~s)+2 HCl(aq) arrow CaCl _ 2 ( aq)+CO _ 2 ( ~g) H _ 2...

(\mathrm{CaCO}}_{3}( \mathrm{~s})+2 \mathrm{HCl}(\mathrm{aq}) \rightarrow \mathrm{CaCl}}_{2}(\mathrm{aq})+\mathrm{CO}}_{2}( \mathrm{~g}) \mathrm{H}}_{2} O(l)\mathrm{O}(\mathrm{l}))
Consider the above reaction, what mass of (\mathrm{CaCl}}_{2}) will be formed if 250 mL of 0.76 M HCl reacts with 1000 g of (\mathrm{CaCO}}_{3}) ?
(Given : Molar mass of (Ca,C,O,H\mathrm{Ca}, \mathrm{C}, \mathrm{O}, \mathrm{H}) and Cl are 40, 12,16,112,16,1 and (35.5  g mol−1\mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}), respectively)

Options

  1. A3.908 g
  2. B2.636 g
  3. C10.545 g
  4. D5.272 g

Correct answer

C. 10.545 g

Step-by-step solution

CaCO3+2HCl→CaCl2+CO2+H2O& Moles of  CaCO3=1000100=10\begin{aligned}& \mathrm{CaCO}_3+2 \mathrm{HCl} \rightarrow \mathrm{CaCl}_2+\mathrm{CO}_2+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} \& \text{ Moles\text{ of } } \mathrm{CaCO}_3=\frac{1000}{100}=10\end{aligned})Moles of (\mathrm{HCl}=0.76 \times \frac{250}{1000}=0.19) (L.R.)Moles of (\mathrm{CaCl}_2) formed (=\frac{0.19}{2})Mass of (\mathrm{CaCl}_2=\frac{0.19}{2} \times 111=10.545 \mathrm{gm})$
