    4.4g

    Explanation:

    Mass of CaCO3 = 10g

    Mass of CaO = 5.6g

    Mass of CO2 = ?

    Mass of CaCO3 = Mass of CaO + Mass of CO2

    Mass of CO2 = Mass of CaCO3 - Mass of CaO

    Mass of CO2 = 10 - 5.6

    Mass of CO2 = 4.4g

    4.4g

    Explanation:

    Calculate the molar mass of CaCO3

    40+12 + (16*3)

    40+12+48

    100 g/mol

    Calculate the molar mass of CO2

    12 + (16*2)

    12+32

    44g/mol

    100g of CaCO3=44g of CO2

    10g of CaCO3=10*44/100

    g of CO2=440/100

    =4.4g of CO2
