Chapter 10, Problem 61QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The percent by mass of ${\text{CaCO}}_3$ in the sample is to be calculated and one assumption is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The ideal gas equation elaborates the physical properties of gases by relating the pressure, volume, temperature and number of moles with each other with the help of four gas laws. This can be shown by:

$PV=nRT$

Here, $n$ is the number of moles, $R$ is the gas constant, $T$ is the temperature, $V$ is the volume, and $P$ is the pressure.

The formula for conversion of temperature from degree Celsius to Kelvin is represented as:

$T\left(\text{K}\right)=T\left(°\text{C}\right)+273.15$
