Solution
The correct option is C22g
100g of CaCO3 would be 1 mol because the molecular weight is 100.089. 1 L of 1M HCL would also be 1 mol of HCl, so in the reaction we can write CaCO3 + 2HCl --> CO2 + H2O+CaCl2
so 1/2mol of CO2 would come out of the reaction, which would be 22.005 grams because tahts the molecular weigt of CO2
