The principal ingredient of certain commercial antacids (Tums, Chooz), is calcium carbonate, CaCO3. a student titrates an antacid tablet weighting 0.542 g with hydrochloric acid; the reaction is CaCO3 (s) + 2 H+ (aq) → Ca2+ (aq) + CO2 (g) + H2O If 38.5 ml of 0.200 M HCl is required for complete reaction, what is the percentage of CaCO3 in the antacid tablet? Ask yourself..what is the formula for % yield.

Question

The principal ingredient of certain commercial antacids (Tums,
Chooz), is calcium carbonate, CaCO3. a student titrates an antacid
tablet weighting 0.542 g with hydrochloric acid; the reaction is
CaCO3 (s) + 2 H+ (aq) → Ca2+ (aq) + CO2 (g) + H2O
If 38.5 ml of 0.200 M HCl is required for complete reaction, what is the
percentage of CaCO3 in the antacid tablet? Ask yourself..what is the
formula for % yield.
