Textbook Question

Chapter 10, Problem 98IL

Group 2A metal carbonates are decomposed to the metal oxide and CO₂ on heating:

MCO₃(s) → MO(s) + CO₂(g)

You heat 0.158 g of a white, solid carbonate of a Group 2A metal (M) and find that the evolved CO₂ has a pressure of 69.8 mm Hg in a 285-mL flask at 25 °C. Identify M.
