Pure CO2 may be prepared by treating limestone with aqueous sulfuric acid. The limestone used contained CaCO3, MgCO3 and inerts. The acid used contained 12% H2SO4. The residue from the process had the following composition: 8.56% CaSO4, 5.23% MgSO4, 1.05% H2SO4, 0.53% inerts, 0.12% CO2 and the rest water. During the process the mass was warmed and CO2 and water vapor were removed. Calculate: (a) Analysis of the limestone (b) % excess acid used (c) wt and analysis of the material distilled from the reaction mass per 1000 kg of limestone treated.

(Material Balance
Pure CO, may be prepared by treating limestone
with aqueous sulfuric acid. The limestone used
contained CaCO3, MgCO3 and inerts. The acid
used contained 12% H2SO4. The residue from
the process had the following composition:
8.56% CaSO4, 5.23% MgSO4, 1.05% H2SO4,
0.53% inerts, 0.12% CO2 and the rest water.
During the process the mass was warmed and
CO2 and water vapor were removed. Calculate:
(a) Analysis of the limestone
(b) % excess acid used
(c) wt and analysis of the material distilled from
the reaction mass per 1000 kg of limestone
treated.
I already figured out what to do in some parts,
the problem I got this from did not have the
answer key. If you can, please show the solution.
Thank you.
